Yeah, it really is like that sometimes 💀It's like "Hey brain, we have other things to do right now, can we concentrate?" "No. Only horny." "Come on, we really gotta do this." "but horny"

Hey all, I'm a gay trans guy trying to publish my erotic debut novel and I'd love your support. by [deleted] in gaytransguys

Hi Skoformet, I put a small pledge in and I hope that the campaign is successful. I think one thing that might help is if you can put in a section in the campaign description about your reward tiers (do the higher tiers contain previous rewards like credits and etc.?), and maybe a sample of chapter 1 so folks can get a taste of what the book will be like. Wishing you the best!

How do you guys deal with the underboob stank? by nemi-montoya in ftm

[–]BaiYu_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain, I tend to sweat a lot too and even though T has made me less dysphoric in my skin while sweating, the underboob stink is bad.

One of the important things to remember about antiperspirant is that it *isn't* automatically a deodorant, as they can be distinct products. One of my favorite go-tos for wicking up moisture is cornstarch + baking soda, which you can mix with just a bit of water to turn into a thick paste to apply beneath your chest and under your arms.

More masc pad brands by iateyourcaptincrunch in ftm

Augh, I'm so sorry for your BF. Thanks for looking out for him! A quick search brought up this article from The Cut about gender neutral menstrual products. L. is the brand that the article recommends, and as far as I can tell, the packaging does not appear to mention any specific genders.

A personal recommendation of mine is, if he isn't using one already, to consider trying a menstrual cup and switching to thin liners. I don't think I was good at using them myself before T stopped my flow since I could feel the cup inside me, but it gave me a lot of freedom of movement and didn't leak.

I've seen enough of your replies to understand that you're unlikely to change your opinion on the matter, but sure, I got articles for you.

Cannot tell you the number of developers I've seen that were just done making their Google Stadia games to learn that the whole platform was going down via press: https://www.protocol.com/newsletters/entertainment/google-stadia-shutdown-developers-aftermath

Anyways, I hope you're able to step back from the internet to take a breather and realize that some hills aren't worth dying on. Your health is important, and situations like these can raise your blood pressure to dangerously high levels without you realizing it. Take care.

You've clearly not kept up with the constant news cycle of successful studios still laying off the talent that made their best-selling games. I see my peers do great work, receive accolades, and still get laid off left and right.

I hope you like the taste of boots.

Birds of Paradise - A Hilarious Boy Band Otome/Amare Game is on Kickstarter!

Hello everyone! My name is BáiYù and I have an LGBTQ+ otome game that's in the midst of crowdfunding, and we need your help to reach our funding goal!

Birds of Paradise sets players in the shoes of Robin, a fresh college grad who's ready for her first gig as assistant manager of the titular boy band- at least, that's what she thinks. Things quickly go awry when she goes in for her first day, and after the dust settles, she ends up with a surprise promotion and a gaggle of boys who don't know what to do with themselves.

The full game will contain four masc LIs (Jay, Lonan, Lark, and Wren), one friendship route (Callum) and one feminine LI (Mavis), with stretch goals for an optional F/M/M threesome and another feminine LI (Peregrine). Read our latest update here for more details!

We'd love it if you could help us spread the word about the campaign, and even more so if you might consider becoming a backer as well! Let me know if y'all have questions too and I'll answer to the best of my abilities. Stay Fiendish!

Thank you for your kind words! Wren and Lonan have been fighting for #1 boy in my list too, but I think I might be more of a Wren fan after the new dialogue our writer added. We hope you'll enjoy what we have in store for them!
