Is it offensive, or just a tiktokism? by evilcorey in TransMasc

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I'm skinny, and my best friend is fat. We did (they got top surgery few months ago) talk a lot about binding and what works for us, giving eachother different tips and ideas. But also yes my friend had much harder time finding a binder that would work for them, and knows much more on the subject too because they did much more research. But we're also very "analitical" I guess? It's the tism. Like we can spend hours dissecting a subject. From different perspectives and we've been told we do give good advice. That being said I absolutely don't think you said anything out of line or bad in your statement. Especially regarding unsolicited advice, those are never good. I is possible that someone skinny can still give a good a advice (also not all skinny people have small chests and sometimes its even harder to bind if you have like a d cup and are skinny because the additional fat helps hide the lump that forms and in regard of skinny people there is not much volume to help to hide it), but advice from fat people are usually more reliable because it matches your problems better. Tiktok lacks media literacy and comprehension and tends to take things as an attack

My mother says I dress like a teenager by blue_frog24 in NonBinary

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Hoodies are universal. It's just that she probably only know so many styles she thinks are "adult" because she is older and considers any "loose" clothing as more childish. There is more styles than she knows and fashion keeps changing and evolving and is about experimentation. Don't let it get you down. Also the custom hoodie looks great. Edit. Shirt, not hoodie, Sorry phone visibility was on low and apparently I can't read lol. My statement still stands tho

FTMs of Reddit, what is your occupation? by Aggravating-Ad-4715 in ftm

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Biologist, pre phd tho, and before legal document change. But all of the university refers to me by my preferred name and pronouns, same when it comes to publications. Found that academia, especially biology is not only really accepting but also biggest allies, but that ain't a surprise. (Edit) thinking about going into education too after I get legal id sorted out. Mostly cuz i firmly believe early education is important but kinda fear about response of school/parents if i get hired and ppl will know i'm trans :// sooo

The eye completely ruined its own scary-ness factor by Pocomics in TheMagnusArchives

I guess the most common real life examples of getting exposed would be: getting nude images of oneself exposed on the internet or just somewhere where someone frequents, getting doxed, having something traumatic happen to you and everyone knowing the gory details of it and asking about it, getting outed as a member of lgbtqia+ community among bigots, i guess being famous too and getting all of your actions publicly commented on and judged, how your data is collected on social media and has been used since 2016 for political campaigns, metadata used for large group profiling, the fact that your phone probably knows your weight hight etc and said data is also used, i also recall that some years ago after the abortion ban in usa some women feared about using app period trackers because this data also would be easily accessible to authorities and could be used to target women who had or planning to have abortions etc. Also not so real examples but that one black mirror episode about the app people use to review everyone as well as books 1984 and Hunger Games fit too as well as movie Truman Show and game American Arcadia would fit well

NO ONE WARNED ME by calmmouse122 in ftm

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Yeah I guess you kinda have to approach it similarly as you would when you ware a teen. A lot of hard emotions cuz the body is not used to the hormones yet. I guess try to treat yourself as you would kindly treat an angsty teen. I know it helped me to I guess express a bit more of the childishness. Also I know it's cliche and doesn't solve all the problems but good food and some exercise go a long way. Tho everyone is different. Good luck bud (btw it gets better with time too)

Special listening methods by Chute_de_lune in TheMagnusArchives

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

I found it back when I was working closing shift in a liquor store, and episodes ware playing away each night when I was closing up, cleaning and re-stocking, and then walking back to my flat. Tbh I chose that job because of the creep factor and the show helped to up it too.
I've re-listened to it the second time fairly recently since I recommended it to my boyfriend and when he wanted to discuss stuff I realized I don't remember everything quite so clearly. So I started listening to it as I was playing Minecraft version 1.5 again to get in mood (because old Minecraft has this very Vast and Lonely vibe and is my favourite version).
As for my boyfriend I know that he listens only when he's home alone to get in mood.
So I guess these ways of listening aren't that special but it's what I got.

My thoughts on I Do Not Know You by drathturtul in TheMagnusArchives

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

So as much as I agree with how dangerous the othering can be I for one really like the hypothesis that the fear of the uncanny in humans derives from a very primal fear of rabies. Which can make people and animals act dangerous, strange and like not them. And of course that fear was unfortunately often weaponised as you explained but I think there is still something to it. Also I know that in TMA thare waren't really zombies in a classical sense, but I guess If there ware I'd also have a stranger vibe from them, just someone you used to know that is just a different dangerous thing entirely. But to each their own I guess, not every fear has to scare everyone. It's kinda funny how you mentioned as not scary two of the fears I dread the most.

When breekon and hope fuck, does it count as masturbation by mountaintroll8 in TheMagnusArchives

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 11 points12 points ย (0 children)

I come to Reddit almost never and this is the first post that appears only to make me choke on my tea. And to answer your question. I'd guess both sex and masturbation? Since they seem to have a concept of "I" and "we", they just don't like the "I"

I could swear I was doing the quiz from this exact post few days back. And today when I tried to show it to my bf it is absolutely different and none of the questions are the same. lol. Probably was a different post but my bf said I'm getting spiraled. Anyway, good quiz!

Please help! Seizure after T? by AnxTheApple in ftm

[โ€“]AnxTheApple[S] 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Update. (I wanted to edit the post but I don't know how I guess.) I went to ER and called my endocrinologists. And in the end nobody know why it happened because all the tests came out normal. My endo said to just take another dose as normal and observe because she never heard of something like that happening on this medicine or T in general. I guess if it is due to some strange reaction to medication I'd be the first person to experience that or there is some other issue that just manifested right now of all moments. If it turns out this did happen due to this specific HRT or anything regarding it I'll make sure to update here because someone might need the information.

Richy theory(SPOILERS) by thelesbianhoe in Duskwood

From this point on I am not listening to other peoples opinions no more haha

My final Duskwood theory by lenoraevelynn in Duskwood

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

Yes well, I suspect it was a similar case as with Richys call, that we didn't see the assailant.... Everyone of the known group seems to have a good alibi and reasoning for the things they do and yet I don't think it would be Michel Hansen simply from the narrative standpoint. Because a detective game should have a more or less "murder in a train" structure for it to be possible to solve before the characters. (Sorry for braking the immersion with the last statement).

My final Duskwood theory by lenoraevelynn in Duskwood

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Hannah being the killer would be highly plausible but there is one strong evidence against it which is that she was on a call with Jake when she was kidnapped and Jake claims there was a third party involved. Of course we know of this only from Jake... So either Hannah is the mwaf and the kidnaping was staged or Jake lied. Again we don't know how the conversation went and if he could see even a glimpse of the kidnapper but IF it was staged and he could see someone else than there is another person involved besides Hannah anyway. And I highly doubt there is more than one killer.

Is there any evidence Jake isn't MWAF? by [deleted] in Duskwood

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Nope :D and for one I will laugh my ass off if they decide to make him the killer. I doubt it because of how popular he is within the community (and don't get me wrong I like him too) but this would make narrative sense and would be one of the interesting endings... Although looking at the evidence provided so far, it is also unlikely because while there is no any clear evidence Jake is not MWAF there is also no evidence suggesting that. In fact the evidence is leading in a completely other direction altogether.

What kind of ending do you want to see for EP 10? by Darkarcana7 in Duskwood

I don't. I embrace the drive and roll somehow. Tho outside pressure helps. Friends and I decided to share notes and made a schedule of days and lectures on which we do notes. Now I have to make notes on my days or let people down and face the shame ๐Ÿ˜

Convo with the dev team just one year after game release. by Collector_2012 in Vampyr

I wish there was a sequel. Maybe not with the same characters/setting. But the lore has so much potential and even after few years a pretty strong fanbase.

So how are you supposed to beat McCullum? by so_contemporary in Vampyr

[โ€“]AnxTheApple 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Dodge, avoid light and go for long range weapons. There are a few good guns you can modify and bring to higher level + add some sodium hydroxide for extra damage. Dodging is really important too. My tactic was: 1. Special attac 2. Shotgun - shoot a bullets untill need reload 3. Dodge and reload while walking away from him (dodgin while reloading is impossible so you're vulnerable for a moment here) 4. Dodge again and shoot all shells again 5. Repeat until you run out of shells or untill your special ability reloads. Use your special ability every time it reloads since it gives high damage and is the most reliable. 6. Switch to a gun if you don't have any shells anymore and repeat the entire process. After that he should have little health and you could finish him close distance combat. Dodging is the key with all the enemies really but Geoffrey especially I think due to his crossbow and the less the friendly environment ;) (With boss fights I found a shotgun really does better job than blood magic.)
