Oh, yeah. One guy specifically asked for a threesome with his husband because they wanted to start a family, which like, congrats? Find a surrogate?

But I started dating again recently and literally removed being trans from my profiles because apparently I attract pregnancy fetishists lmao.

Hey. I’m sorry about your grandparent. Just have some stuff nearby in case he decides he’s hungry or thirsty. Make sure you’re keeping his mouth moistened if he’s not drinking, just for comforts sake.

It’s hard to hear, but you can’t force it. Near the end, my mom just… stopped eating. I could sometimes get her to take a couple bites of something, or sip something, but at a certain point of things shutting down, they stop eating because the energy just isn’t “needed”.

It sucks. I struggled with it a lot and would make her favorites every day, just in case. And most of that went to waste unfortunately. But it was there.

I get the feeling, the helplessness of “what can I do to fix this?” Sometimes though, there’s nothing we can do. And that’s not your fault. If you’ve spoken to his doctor/care team about the cough and lack of eating, you’re doing what you should be.

I’m sorry again, that you’re going through this. You’re not alone in this, and I’m sure he’s thankful for what you’re doing to help him be comfortable.

Yeah, especially since PrEP and doxypep have become more common place. Honestly, unless you’re talking to cis gay men who have experience with trans men, a lot of them don’t think about pregnancy. And even those who DO, it’s a shot in the dark. Or some of them know about the risks and it’s a kink sometimes. Personally I’ve gone with a combo of PrEP and an implant in my arm, but the sheer amount of cis men I have had FLAT OUT ask if I wanna push out a baby for them has just reignited my fire to go get my hysto done.

My advice would be looking into BC options, and have in your profiles “no condom no play” or “no bareback” or “safe sex only”.

Right? Like, damn dude save some dicks for the rest of us.

Oh man, I hit a pothole on a dirt road the day before yesterday, could that be what caused it? It didn't seem like anything was wrong until this after that. :(

I figured it wasn't driveable, I'm glad I didn't try then. I'll have to look into the control arm replacements around me then, thank you! I appreciate it.

Thank you, very insightful. I thought it was some sort of large refrigerator on wheels, so this explains why my TV dinners aren't frozen :(

Dayseeker's album Dark Sun was on repeat for me for a while after my parents died. I did the whole album, but if you want specific songs, the big ones for me in regards to processing the grief were Dreamstate, Neon Grave, Midnight Eternal, Dark Sun, and Parallel.

I'm sorry for your loss. May her memory be a blessing.

No COLD food? I had mine out a couple months ago and was told absolutely no WARM foods because it could cause the clot to dissolve or fall out. I was told I could have iced coffee as soon as I took my gauze out. But yknow, I'm not a doctor guy 🪱

My mom and I played animal crossing together for years. Like, gamecube, 3DS, switch; we always had a town together or had our own games and visited each other.

I was my mom's caretaker during her battle with cancer, and I've only played once since she passed in January. A villager mentioned not seeing her for a while, and it just broke me in that moment.

I don't have any solutions for you, but I feel for you and I'm sorry for your loss.

Honestly, the worst part was the first time I removed the binding, I almost passed out. Like shock set in at that moment, and I had to quickly sit down before going about my aftercare lmao.

It wasn't as bad as I was expecting personally. I had to do all my own post-op care by myself because my ex like, moved across the country shortly before. Luckily, my mom helped out with my daughter when I couldn't lift her for a few weeks.

Oh, or actually once I was able to shower again, at one point I was like, done bleeding into my drains pretty much, but then I turned too far reaching for my soap and it started up again. So, one of my drains was in an extra week.

Rad, that's really helpful! Thanks!

Nice, that's way easier than I expected, thanks!

Awesome! Thank you!

My dog couldn't write when he was alive, how can he possibly send me letters?

I once mentioned to my mom that a coworker told me I should watch the show. My mom was very upset and said she was disgusted with the whole thing. She lived through that time. It deeply affected her. She was very emotional about it when she explained it to me. I ended up not watching it.

I can understand people getting tattoos of characters from media they like and all, but c'mon, you choose to get a real life rapist serial killer tattooed on you?

I never chewed them, but I always plucked them off and took them without actually realizing it was stealing. They were just too ✨️shiny✨️ to resist.

So I've had metal tunnels with screw on backs like these, and every single pair has ended up getting my hair caught in it when I screwed them in, or pinched my lobe at some point. Plus if the ring was backwards it wouldn't screw on right.

Not saying any of that is guaranteed, I may just be bad at life, but it wasn't worth it to me unless they were super cool ones.

Edit: I just saw you said they're not threaded, oops. Well, never mind all that then.

Well that's not very cash money of you

I was one of those people until recently. I smoked a LOT over the last 14 years (which is like half my life), and I was only off of it when I carried my daughter. I would smoke pretty much whenever I had someone watching her (like actual babysitting, not just a "keep an eye on her for a sec" type thing), and every time I even mentioned feeling like I had a problem or issues it would cause, everyone brushed me off and told me you can't get addicted and I'm just overthinking it. For a period of time I was bringing a vape to one of my jobs and hitting it in the bathroom or by the dumpsters. I literally could not go through work without it. I started actively trying to quit in July, and even with actively trying, I only was able to stop around Thanksgiving. I haven't done it since then, but I still go "hm, maybe I can just go do one hit of something and it'll be fine" even though every time it made me depressed and anxious. I'm just hoping my brain starts working a little better with memory and cognitive issues that got worse over the years lol.
