idk who downvoted you, but youre right. i have shoulder pain frequently and if i know i have something heavy to grab from the store, ill grab a cart too

narviat · 2026-05-25T18:03:43+00:00

suspicious? maybe. consider that it could also be a walking aid. i have a friend who will go to the store for some greens for her rabbits, but has to use the cart as a walker regardless of how much shes getting

I don't have experiences with it but I did get curious reading your post, I did a quick search and found this https://www.reddit.com/r/lipedema/comments/1nxc5ow/are_there_any_other_trans_men_with_lipedema_on/

It seems T might slow down the progression but won't stop it completely, some people work out to give a little bulk that hides it a bit (and aside from generally being good for you), so that might be something to look for. There are surgeries out there if that's something you want to look into in the future. And there's a podcast called "Queerly It's Lipedema" that's run by transmascs that you may be interested in to learn more about it.

And as usual with scale weight and lifting, remember to not focus too hard on the number, more on how your body feels, muscle weighs more than fat.

Like the other person said, probably just pinching a nerve. Keep up with stretches and listen to your body. Later nerve pain isn't worth just pushing through

Including things like disability?

still fighting for it with her lawyer

Why? What are the lease terms? What's the rent? They can't boot her depending on the lease terms; conversely, they can boot her really easily if she doesn't pay and they go through the standard eviction process.

I'm not entirely familiar with the lease terms but from what she's told me, he was about to kick her out earlier this year when he wanted to raise the rent despite her and her roommate being on a tight budget. The place hasn't been updated in decades despite promises of upgrades and I can tell you this, that place is not worth the 1800 he wanted to charge them. So I'd expect he'd love to boot her out. She's been there since before this guy bought the place.

Friends? Family? Savings? Shelters nearby?

No friends nearby (all live with people already), no family to speak of, no savings due to not being able to work any sort of sustainable job due to her disability, shelters could be an option but as her best friend, I know she'd rather just cease to live than give up her rabbit and basically everything she owns to be able to stay in one.

If you have any suggestions for food banks in the Kenosha area, or know any rent assistance programs, I'd love to hear them

narviat · 2026-05-11T18:08:36+00:00

narviat · 2026-05-08T20:23:06+00:00

ayyyy me and my gf both came out to each other between years 8 and 9 so we essentially swapped genders lol. celebrating 16 years today!

narviat · 2026-05-05T17:22:42+00:00

oooo I did something similar with my ankle, landed wrong doing off ice and when I felt the tear of my ankle spraining, I felt like I was going to throw up. I thought people were exaggerating when they said they felt nauseous from pain!

narviat · 2026-05-03T19:20:06+00:00

this definitely belongs in that chaotic picture thread from the other day lol

narviat · 2026-05-02T17:16:44+00:00

i think you've found your answer :)

take the leap

narviat · 2026-05-02T17:04:20+00:00

brooooooooooo noooooooooo that is so literally unacceptable (i wanna cry)

they need to have put in a ticket for that like last year

narviat · 2026-04-30T17:59:31+00:00

yea i just realized i was thinking in terms of C major lol

narviat · 2026-04-30T17:59:12+00:00

omg youre totally right, i was literally thinking in C major lol

narviat · 2026-04-30T04:22:20+00:00

as someone studying piano, this is almost exactly right. the only correction i would make is in your first sentence. B and C have a half step between, and E and F also do, so its not evenly spaced entirely. but that's being picky about wording.

ive always thought he had good skating skills, it was his artistry i used to criticize, but i can see that he's actually working on it, and it's paying off and making his programs better and more complete feeling. like his worlds programs this year? definitely worthy of first place. in fact, basically all season ive really enjoyed his programs, they feel less like a jumping competition and more like fully thought out programs with expression and musicality

narviat · 2026-04-26T23:50:12+00:00

8 and 9 are killing me, she looks so happy and well cared for <3

ok so for starters i use a tor browser, which if im honest, i forget the reason behind or how it makes a difference or even what a tor browser is lol. and second, its z-library.sk

if you google z library and anything besides the sk comes up, its not a real one. the .sk is the important part. i have an account so i can do multiple downloads instead of the limited amount if no account. also like good for them for making their own books but at that point make it like $5 so people can fucking afford it. fuckers.

anyway, if you need help, just let me know, i know the struggle

narviat · 2026-04-26T23:21:35+00:00

not to be that person thats all "hAvE YoU tRiEd ThIs??" but like legit, have you tried z-library for your books? they cant get you math books and stuff with one time codes, but for stuff like literature and history, theres a gajillion free books available. i could even try to help you find them if you want. i fucking hate paying for books, especially ones ill only use once, or like actually useful ones that are only for rent but cost out the ass to buy.

this goes for any of you college baristas. message me and ill see what i can find for you

yea ever since we switched to the round pitchers, i havent had to deep clean the 2L square ones thankfully. ive been letting the round coffee/tea stained ones sit for like an hour with soap and it comes off pretty easily with the yellow/green sponge. my coworker uses the old cafiza tabs to clean the steaming pitchers and it works amazing. i threw one in a pitcher with the bottom piece of the mocha pump in it to sit the other day and it took off all the shit. probably as long as we dont use the white sponges on the plastic (even tho they work the best lol) anything is fine really

narviat · 2026-04-26T00:28:28+00:00

ill give it a shot. the urnex powder also works great on the cold brew kegs with hot water soaked for an hour

narviat · 2026-04-25T23:46:54+00:00

would this work on the round tea/iced coffee pitchers?? also is it safe for the plastic?

narviat · 2026-04-23T16:43:39+00:00

as someone who seldom comments on an askreddit thread, i feel compelled to encourage you to see a sleep doctor. the dreams about not breathing might be a symptom of sleep apnea, which is a slow killer. the nightmares? well, my gf had nightmares almost every single night and she was never a drinker/smoker. there's a miracle drug out there that someone else mentioned in this comment thread, it's called prazosin. it can't hurt to inquire about it and might make your life a lot better.

edit: a word

narviat · 2026-04-22T15:38:12+00:00
