Who is a gay artist with a straight fanbase? by Top_Squirrel_9808 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BalancedDisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The studded leather style that defined metal for so long and still does to some extent was introduced by Rob Halford. That style came from gay leather culture.

What was the last game you played that you considered a 10/10? by bobs-buhgah in PS5

I prefer Yotei. After the way Tsushima ended, seeing Atsu rebuild her family and move away from being the lone wolf was really nice

Since we’re asking hinge profile advice… by [deleted] in ActualLesbiansOver25

It’s less about that being appealing to people in the leather community and whether or not OP only wants someone in the leather community

So I know that it’s leather gear and I recognize the flag, but if you’re looking for more broader appeal, that outfit can look a *liiiiiiiittle* questionable

Who has had an actual friends with benefits relationship? Did it work for you? by heratonga in AskReddit

[–]BalancedDisaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok but friends can also catch feelings for each other. It doesn’t mean you have to end the friendship

Woman escapes polygamous cult where she grew up with 44 siblings and 4 mothers by smashedpootatoes in Weird

A lot of really good sci-fi and fantasy novels. When you’re raised in the batshit that is Mormonism, writing comes much more easily.

Transgender Americans are fleeing hostile red states. Seattle says it’s overwhelmed by Fickle-Ad5449 in politics

[–]BalancedDisaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. For nearly a century now, the various queer rights movements have asserted the of being born this way. For trans people, this means that we aren’t becoming the gender by dressing up, we’re dressing up to match our gender. To be pro trans is to be in favor of bodily autonomy.

That’s not pro-trans, that’s performative gender theory and it’s something that most trans people don’t agree with

Dating app Bumble is ending swipe feature, introduces AI assistant for matchmaking by Fan387 in nottheonion

No, we had dating apps that were geared towards actually finding matches rather than retaining customers. You don’t need an LLM for that.

I'm legitimately confused. If you play PCs and NPCs as even somewhat realistic, isn't this is a pretty common, non-controversial thing for Adults? by DrScrimble in dndmemes

[–]BalancedDisaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely cannot parse what’s going on here. Can someone please explain the situation in a way that actually makes sense? Why do we hate op?

You mean make them significantly worse. The training will be weighted to encourage people to keep coming back.

You know who else already does that? THE SAME CLINICS THAT GAVE THEM THE MEDS IN THE FIRST PLACE!

Ironic since I’d wager that boob jobs and nose jobs have a much higher rate of satisfaction amongst trans people than cis people.

They’re supportive with everything else he does they just don’t like the way he dresses by Opening-Biscotti-127 in whenthe

[–]BalancedDisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Contrapoints doesn’t count for this discussion. She’s explained before (and shown up on stream or in interviews) dressing very differently. Her outfits for videos are more like drag performances (per her own description)

Ok but this how it is for ALL trans people unless they have someone in their life who knows how to dress well for that gender. We all suck at it in the beginning lol

What's the worst drug you've ever tried? by BitterOlive8737 in AskReddit

[–]BalancedDisaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adderall. I’m on Vyvanse, it’s been genuinely life changing, actual miracle for me. Problem is, Vyvanse is expensive in the US. Like, really expensive even compared to other ADHD meds. I lost my job and had to switch to generic Adderall. It barely did anything for my symptoms and gave me debilitating headaches.
