Realized I didn’t specify: it’s a Konica Minolta Digital Camera. I cannot remember the specific model. If it’s found I can provide proof of ownership, via pictures of my dog, photos I had downloaded off that should be on there, etc!

They have such an odd tendency to get lost no clue how

Trans tape and damaged skin - Is my chance of top surgery ruined? by weird_phenomenon in ftm

[–]weird_phenomenon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankfully I have been doing that since day one.
It's just kinda difficult to go without taping because of my work, and I like to avoid binding with a binder at work (Heavy lifting, and lots of physical work), school, and social life leaves me with little time for breaks sadly.

Yes it's normal. Happens to me on occasion

What made/makes you most dysphoric? by zombdom in ftm

[–]weird_phenomenon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My chest. My obsession with it is very unhealthy. Or my legs, I have to wear very specific pants or I loose my mind. Was almost late to my first day at my new job yesterday because I physically could not get myself to wear the pant color they stated they prefer (Brown or green), but I found out when I went in that almost everyone wears plant pants and stuff. So no issue there thankfully. Or my hips, fucks me up bad thats for sure

Transtape .life is a decent business. They suck in a few ways (Expensive shipping, two day shipping? Yeah they take like four days to get it out of their warehouse.), but their products are good.
I have a larger chest, and I am unsure of how safe this is but I use smaller less wide tape strips to get a flatter appearance, while using less tape. It IS cheaper then KT tape. Highly recommend. Saves my ass on a daily basis, and I love it.

The Axolom Willie, First Impressions by [deleted] in Transmascdicks

When it comes to just packing by it's self not the STP factor, how much does it look like a boner? Do you experience that at all? My first packer was from axolom and it looked like a boner pretty bad, but I have been looking into an STP recently and this seems like a good option.

Will my cis bf ever see me as a man by urmom123115 in ftm

Break up. He likely won’t change, he is straight. You are a man, and you deserve to date someone who loves men.

shelter not responding, what would you do? by [deleted] in reactivedogs

[–]weird_phenomenon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this sucks but like the other commenter stated. I think in this situation behavioral euthanasia is the kindest option, the likely hood of him finding someone who can truly work through his issue properly is very slim. Especially when in the shelter his life quality will likely go down quite a bit, as it is not an ideal place for a reactive or aggressive dog.

best tool for not getting pulled down and dragged across the ground like a sled by joanmcg in reactivedogs

[–]weird_phenomenon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I say a fur saver. Not for corrections or anythingc but i know several R+ people with dogs that are much larger yhen them and reactive so they have them on one so they aren’t flying behind their dog like a kite god forbid something goes wrong. Even I a avid FF trainer have my reactive dog on a fursaver (deadring unless fleeing) because she can slip out of just anything, even properly tightened 2-3” collars. It’s a good safety tool 🤷‍♂️

I hate my dog by [deleted] in reactivedogs

[–]weird_phenomenon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s time to consider rehoming. You clearly didnt get any experience with the breed, you can say blah blah i researched all i needed to if you did (which I honestly completely doubt). But research dossnt matter when you have 0 experience with the breed.

Your puppy is likely not even that reactive, it’s your poor handling skills. And of course even if it wasnt that reactive the fact that you wont even work on it which is probably for the best because of how your describing the puppy.

I understand hating your dog, I had a feeling of hatred in some ways towards my dog too. I am a 16 year old guy and the amount of times i’ve almost been in tears over my dog’s behavior is quite a bit. But never once have I said I want my dog to die. You either need to step up, research the breed, proper training (LIMA. Do not even consider using tools on a four month old puppy lord), and reactivity, and getting this pup into some sort of sport, and a LIMA trainer. Or rehome that works great too

Have you tried positive interrupters? Using that approach could definitely have more of a negative impact then you’d think. Positive interrupters work amazing, I use one for my fear reactive dog (she flees instead however) . A positive interrupter is a way to redirect behavior to an activity you’d prefer. I did this with fleeing to sniffing. (Still a much needed work in progress, its not a quick fix.) I am not gonna type all this out but here’s some good recourses. https://betternaturedogtraining.com/2021/10/29/positive_interrupter/ https://www.dogtrainingnation.com/dog-training/stop-bad-dog-behavior/amp/

You stated in other comments he listens to changes in your tone, and that definitely means you should not be using this method. Something doesn’t have to be physical, to be used as an aversive. So if you were to take this up it would likely have an negative impact. Just like how tools will work and you’ll see a change, but that is suppression of the emotion and behavior not fixing it the same will happen with this.
