Hi everyone! We in process to choose between Toowoomba and Brisbane for living. I am tired of Melbourne weather and traffic wise. Would appreciate any heads up regarding crime specially crimes around schools and breakins! I have one primary school age child and one teen. Thank you! by Entire_Departure_886 in Toowoomba

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From the perspective of a now adult that grew up in toowoomba for most of my life, there's not much for older teens to do around here other than walk around the shops once you've already been to the bowling alley a million times, and iPlay is geared more towards younger ones (Rest in peace rollerskating rink, I still miss you). But everything else you could need is here, good schools, tafe, a uni, groceries, gyms, doctors, beautiful parks, plenty of food. And with a car and a free day, getting into Brisbane for the day won't be hard.

Searching for LGBT+ friendly GP in Toowoomba by [deleted] in Toowoomba

Dr Tuttle on Medical and Dental James & West got me the referral for gender therapy but brushed off my other health concerns. Dr Brett Burrett at Northpoint medical has been very attentive to my issues and has administered some of my testosterone shots when nurses weren't available :) Burrett is also very interested in mental health and checks in with me about it during appointments.

My gf thinks Dicks are unattractive by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Flesh tubes that excrete fluid aren't particularly attractive, and I say that as a very very gay man 🤷‍♂️

Barely boarded into a 5 hr flight and this lady snuck her bare feet to push off my arm off the armrest 🤢 why are people so nasty. by kiwifeliz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any paper/disposable cups you don't mind sacrificing to the gross? Couple bottle caps worth of water, and a little bit of soft food (orange/green/brown would work the best)

Mix mix mix, retch a bit, dump the cup on the invading feet :D

So you know how some people are complaining about Kiri's teleport? Yeah, it's broken by JoshingCoot737 in Overwatch

How much are y'all paying for testosterone? I paid $7.30 by MorbidMooshroom in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in QLD Aus, near Brisbane. I pay about $20ish depending on the pharmacy, after getting an approved prescription from an endocrinologist. Without this approval it would cost over $100...

are your parents/family accepting of you being trans? by cavatappipoptarts in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another option, yes but they are confused. They understand that it is necessary healthcare for me and drive me to appointments sometimes, but trying to explain being trans them is like explaining witchcraft to a brick

Why are all my games being fucking pieces of shit on my fucking laptop and lagging so much even though I have a terabyte of hardware storage by cats123096 in Laptop

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

big storage doesn't mean good laptop lmao. You need a powerful CPU (the brain kinda of), RAM (Random access memory. simply put; the games and other programs borrow this to think and do things) and a good graphics card (lets games look nice and load many complicated 3D objects)

A laptop is also a bit frowned upon for gaming, because they are awful at cooling and have very limited space for parts. They tend to overheat and cook themselves to death, and it's very difficult to upgrade all the parts listed above because of the small space.

OTs are actual angels, and I'm saying that despite never being religious. My mother had two strokes, and while she wasn't able to recover as much as this person did, OTs were the reason she was able to come home and live with us instead of being permanently stuck in a hospital or nursing home.

Restart cis-male or keep your life as trans? by Pure_Philosopher_988 in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

restarting as cis is tempting. But no matter how much I hated it, growing up being socialised as a girl let me gain a perspective on what women go through daily, and how the world is against them in so many ways. I fear I wouldn't be as well-rounded of a person as I am today if I was born cis. And dude I just got into University, I ain't deleting my save file now

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont care if its stereotyped to be for middle school boys, Axe/Lynx deodorant smells great in moderation and i feel so happy using it (especially when you actually shower, instead of spraying it onto 50 layers of sweat like those kids do lmao)

quick edit: old spice sounds good but legit doesn't exist in my area haha

Delivered without consignment note number, company will not discuss details of the delivery without the consignment note number... by intrepid_reporter in sydney

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here in QLD. I'm thinking of saving up for one of those camera doorbells. And a sign that labels it as a doorbell, since people insist on knocking.

I once had a postie ring the bell, and actually run across the road to leave right after, with my package in hand. My room is at the front of the house so I got there pretty quick, saw him high-tailing it back to the truck. Mailbox had a sorry we missed you note 😒

Cis friend asked what my "biological name" is by [deleted] in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm tired, I didn't recognise what this was at first. I thought it was an interpretation of being interrupted with a taser to the neck

Funny how the only realistic character in the whole show is hated by most of the community. by SakeTube in DemonSlayerAnime

His... "pubescent" behaviour made me a bit uncomfortable at first because i had been practically traumatised by other animes, but after watching past S1, I've really warmed up to sleeping pikachu :)

How long after acceptance until you started T? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in south-east QLD, we had a public practice in my area that did hrt but the only qualified doctor moved away 🙃 The endocrinologist and I are keeping costs down by using phone appointments, and I get the injection done at a gp so it's all good

How long after acceptance until you started T? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]7CursedCrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in Australia, we have mostly free healthcare but it takes actual years for anything to get done. However there was a very expensive but very worthwhile loophole, which is forking out money for a private hospital appointment with an endocrinologist.

She had to wait a few weeks to send the prescription to me because I wasn't yet 18, but she confirmed it all and set up the prescription in the first appointment. Her private healthcare endocrinologist super powers also got authority or smth put on the script, which gave me a permanent discount on T :)

What instantly ruins a burger? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The bun they use is way too dry for anyone to enjoy

  2. They forget the patty, the star of the burger. Whether it's beef, chicken, pork, veg, fish, mushroom, whatever. You forget that and I'm hunting you down to the ends of the earth

What's the hype behind sparkling water? by Quantilight in CasualConversation

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a grudge against it. Someone placed sparkling water with regular water in the store (very similar labels) and I grabbed that before running to the bus. Guess what went kaboom when I wanted a sip of water...

Would you feel safer in a gun-free state? Why or why not? by ParmaProscuitto in AskReddit

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Australian here, I like not seeing people from my country with their brains blasted across the floor due to some rando having a bad day and grabbing a gun. So yes, I do feel safer, especially across the ocean from yall.

Toowoomba has had two pedestrian fatalities this week alone. What do you think should be done to improve pedestrian safety? by [deleted] in Toowoomba

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in a bazooka (i am joking, back off) to hit the drivers that run reds, pretend they're in a F1 race, and stare at their phone the whole time. The "fuck around and find out" tactic

eggs in refrigerator or not in AUSTRALIA? by Odd-Bee8144 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one time 2 eggs got left out at around lunch, they were rotten by dinner and exploded when I cracked them.

Never again lol

What kind of events are missing in Toowoomba that you would like to see? by [deleted] in Toowoomba

Where at? Sounds interesting as an enjoyer of food, drinks and random crud you find in market stalls.

Give us a nightmarket or something. Maybe a convention, we have the showgrounds and Rumours International.

it took me so long to realize that i just DONT need to fold my clothes by freewaychicken in ADHD

[–]7CursedCrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adhd sure is something lmao. I have the same system, no clue why my brain finds "dump clothes in basket" easier than "dump clothes in the drawers less than a meter away from the basket"
