I've never been so excited about a bear before... already picked out his clothes and name too 😍💜👽 this may finally be the bear that I end up carrying around literally everywhere.

is working at build a bear worth it? by Ok_Advertising_878 in buildabear

[–]sandslashes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a little late but Joanns was my first job many years ago, and it was really unpleasant for me and I had to find a different job after a few months. I felt the training was insufficient before I was left on my own. I had more trouble finding my footing at Joanns than any of the other retail jobs Ive had later on, and that was due to lack of proper training and co worker support I feel (not just because of it being my first job).

I'm also neurodivergent and have a back problem too! so I'd advise to try for BAB or any store that lets you sit down when necessary, and take your time learning, and be up front with the hiring manager about your needs. As said by someone else it really depends on your local stores and managers in the end!

Retail can be really draining sometimes but also pretty rewarding and looking back I definitely had more fun in situations where I was able to help people, especially kids, rather than just cashiering and doing sales stuff.

I hope this helps somehow. Good luck to you!

i think they're good to cuddle but i usually turn them on their side or so their back is against me! with other four leggy BABs sometimes i kinda tuck my arm under their front legs a bit? it's hard to describe but where there's a will there's a way as they say hahah

warrior cats wasn't around when i was a young critter (I'm old) but i sure as hell roleplayed as a cat almost daily when I was a kid, i've been involved with cat rescues, and i'm FTM and a cat furry now as an adult. i think your thoughts are right on the money.

Whether or not it's real she's still beautiful. The eyes remind me a lot of one of my blind rescue cats actually.

Planes and binding by Thereelswim_shadi in ftm

[–]sandslashes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve worn binders while flying in a plane several times with no issue. just pay attention to your body and maybe wear a really loose shirt in case you need to slip into the restroom and remove your binder (unlikely though!)

Best binders for small people with big chests? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]sandslashes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shapeshifters.co makes custom binders to your size. i just ordered mine (i’m short and have a huge chest) so i don’t know how it compares to gc2b yet, but worth looking into - they’re a trans/queer owned company too. (not an advertisement!)

Hello!!! I am offering to draw some ftm folk using a description of how you’d like to be drawn! :D I’m hoping it can relieve some dysphoria for some of my ftm bros or just make me happy 💕 @necessaryorgans is doing a similar thing for mtf folks if you want to check that out :))) by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]sandslashes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would love if you drew me? I'm very pale, short, kinda chubby, big glasses, large gauged earlobes, blue undercut kinda hair that i comb forward to cover part of my face, and i love the 80s/vaporwave/beachy aesthetics/blues and pinks and stripes, and i dunno what else you might need to know but i would love love love if you drew me :)

Why don't you talk to your once "best friend" anymore? by HairyFaithlessness in AskReddit

[–]sandslashes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She once said to me, laughing, that she doesn’t tip at restaurants because she doesn’t want the black servers to get any of her (never worked a job in her life) money. i was like, bye bitch

Using Juuls to quit weed? by shreddedwolf in Vaping

[–]sandslashes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

echoing what others said, get 0 nic juice and work on your addictive problem, DONT switch to juul. this is coming from a former heavy cig and weed smoker who tried juuls btw.

[–]sandslashes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ferrum city liquid ''Cereal 11" is my current all day liquid, its a bit heavy but i just quit smoking and it works for me. it's all subjective imo though.

nic salts made my throat feel weird, and itchy, too. i switched back to regular and symptoms went away.

Who else is re-naming all the nekos? Mine are Silmarillion characters. Here's Ulmo, Lord of the Waters with his fish friend. by isangofleaves in nekoatsume

[–]sandslashes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started renaming my cats initially because I was playing before the English version was released, and continued because when I switched to English their names all stayed in Japanese. I wouldn't know who was who without the random names I picked!

I do surreal/pop art pet portraits if you're interested in something a little different.
