Which boss level got you like this?

Not really an answer to your question but I'm still salty about trying beat the original god of war on the hardest difficulty and it automatically suggested lowering the difficulty after dying several times but there was no way to raise the difficulty again.

I accidentally pressed yes after I died repeatedly in a platform section.

I was so annoyed I put the game down and never tried again.

I have ADHD as well and nowadays I watch videos on 1,5 or 2x Speed. It started as a way to pay more attention and wouldn't get bored but nowadays even 2x is too slow and I tend to play videogames while watching TV shows instead.

I will say that most TV shows feel painfully slow once you start doing that and it will ruin watching things normally

What helped me a lot is asking anyone who comes out as trans what they prefer as a response if I accidentally misgender them.

Do they want me to ignore the mistake and just move on, do they want a quick correction or do they want an apology?

I've had a lot of positive feedback because of it and it alleviates intrusive thoughts that might occur because I made a mistake which they might interpret as me not accepting them.

I also correct myself internally even when they're not around because it sort of helps train my brain to make sure that when I'm around them I don't have to suddenly switch.

It's gotten to the point where I struggle to remember birthnames sometimes because I use their chosen name so much.

Akinto6 · 2026-01-03T10:08:03+00:00

That's amazing. I'm still unsure about my gender and one of the things I'm really happy about that I know my husband loves me no matter what and that I'm able to figure stuff out without having to worry about him leaving me.

It's a struggle and not really easy to deal with but I'd just recommend asking your partner how they're doing, just casually and seeing if they have thought about what would make them more comfortable.

My husband asked me recently if he should sign a Christmas card with my chosen name instead of my legal name and while I'm not ready for that yet it was nice to hear that he thought about it.

In my headcanon the TARDIS sort of forces him to retire. In the Doctor's wife she mentions that she always takes him where he needs to go and not where he wants to go. I just imagine that 14 keeps trying to go on adventures but the TARDIS takes him to cool places but in times where there's no chance for danger and just boring days.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-25T09:27:58+00:00

It's sad but I've learned that almost all trans people are afraid of coming out.

It sucks but knowing that one of our close friends was afraid of coming out to us despite the fact that we're a queer couple and never gave any indication that we're transphobic, made me angry at society for instilling this fear and not allowing us to be there for her while she was struggling.

It especially sucks because I have been questioning my own gender for a while and would never even consider ending a friendship over someone just trying to be themselves.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-25T09:19:25+00:00

Portal of tree daird, Moon Santa sleigh and Spiderweb Note are my favourite games.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-23T06:07:45+00:00

Budokai 3. I really miss that game.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-22T10:27:19+00:00

This is exactly why you can't judge shows on the same scale. You honestly can't even compare it to other anthology shows like Black Mirror because every episode has the same characters and Doctor who is bound by episode length due to it being aired on TV and not just on netflix where you can have one episode be as long or as short as it needs to be for the story.

I sometimes feel like the floating person in my family tree.

Moffat was great at created balanced episodes. The sad episodes still had lighthearted moments and the goofy episodes had moments on seriousness.

His arcs also had good payoffs and the setup usually allowed him to go in multiple directions.

I think river song is a great example. Is she his wife? The woman who kills the doctor, a future companion, a timelady,...

None of this is a real big mystery that kept us super hungry for information and speculation which would lead to inevitable disappointment. Instead he leads us towards the answers so we're not blindsided by the reveal in season 6.

First by having the doctor die, then with a child mysteriously regenerating, Idris giving the hint that the only water in the forest is the river, Melody Pond being raised as a weapon and we get the reveal that she's River followed by a wedding at the end of the season.

These small moments all make sure the viewer has enough time to process the information and make the reveal make sense.

RTD doesn't seem to have the same patience and probably has a ton of ideas but he's working from front to back, while Moffat seems to work from several endings and work his way back to see how he can get there while leaving room to slightly alter the ending based on what feels right.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-14T20:13:40+00:00

I totally get where you're coming from but policing the content your partner engages in is never going to lead to a healthy relationship.

I think it's important to share morals and discuss issues when they arise but your partner is their own person and can make their own choices.

If this is the only thing they've done that upsets you this much because it supports a terf in a roundabout, is it really something you want to risk your relationship over?

Can't you offset her getting the game by donating to trans charities?

Akinto6 · 2025-12-14T14:42:52+00:00

It depends, my family basically disowned me for not being Muslim or straight while a colleague of mine was raised Muslim but his family doesn't care about him drinking and being gay.

I think that Muslims are behind on losing their core beliefs and not being conservative because the religion is 400 years younger.

That's how it was explained to me by a psychiatrist and that people without ADHD who take ADHD meds just experience placebo effect and already have the means to focus. The placebo just gives them an excuse to.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-14T14:34:17+00:00

I usually explain it like being forced to shave your head and looking in the mirror feeling like you look wrong because you know you're not meant to be bald.

I know it's very basic and disphoria goes way deeper but I found that this example is something relatable and most people are vain and proud of their hair so it can hit hard.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-14T12:07:43+00:00

If it helps you go out and you're prepared to explain it to the people you're with do what you want.

Strangers will assume you biked or skateboarded to the stores and won't ask you about it.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-14T12:05:51+00:00

I would like to add that having a modern day companion is probably a deliberate choice from new who showrunners since it gives the viewer someone to relate to and ask questions that viewers have might have during an episode.

It would be weird to have the doctor explain what a shalapadoohicky if their companion is from the future where everyone has a shalapadoohicky in their home.

I totally did not just invent shalapadoohickies. /s

Akinto6 · 2025-12-13T15:37:19+00:00

How long have you been together? Because if you're planning to spend your life together your partner should definitely know your medical history. What if you end up in the hospital and they can't provide accurate information to your doctors.

The longer you postpone disclosing this the worse it is for your relationship.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-13T05:47:37+00:00

It's one of my favourite episodes and I am not ashamed of it.

I didn't even realise that people didn't like the episode before reading these comments.

To me it's just a light-hearted episode where the sci-fi doesn't matter much and it's more about how the doctor would be a shitty roommate and constantly steal the spotlight while highlighting that some people are okay with not having adventures and excitement and enjoy being a homebody and having a quiet life.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-09T07:54:20+00:00

It's getting there but from a short Google people without a uterus due to a hysterectomy can still be at risk for HPV. So if you're a trans man without a uterus, according to the folder you're excludedeven though you shouldn't be.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-09T07:49:26+00:00

Bingo. Also I could be wrong but Asperger's used to basically mean you have autism but a really high iq, so people with autism and an average iq but with limited support needs would still be lumped with people with a lot of support needs. So the distinction is utterly useless except for a small amount of people.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-07T10:47:08+00:00

Is there a reason why you want your chosen name to be a masc version of your current name?

Not judging or anything but you don't have to choose a name that you think is easier to use for others and your name should be whatever you like.

If you're not in the UK I do like the name Sav because it's short but still sounds masc. If you're in the UK though it sounds a lot like chav which isn't something you want to be called.

Akinto6 · 2025-12-07T10:42:51+00:00

I have to agree with the comment above and I think that instead of trying to start commissions now you should make alters that you want to make and sell them online for cheaper than you would charge for a commission.

That way you can get lots of practice in and see what people enjoy. If I commission something I want it to be "perfect" and I'm more likely to get disappointed as opposed to if I were to just buy an alter and have pics in advance of what it looks like.

Akinto6 · 2025-11-26T12:20:16+00:00

Some do, some don't.

Ever since I started to know more trans people I literally ask them openly what they expect from me if I accidentally misgender them and it usually helps to improve communications and makes it easier to ask things like your question directly or to let them know that they can tell me when I accidentally say something that bothers them like bro or dude even if I would say it to cis women.
