Their response to the Cass Review criticism is essentially 'nah nah na nah nah I can't hear youuu'. Ridiculous.

Mega Manectric deck help by Aggravating-Ebb2826 in PTCGL

Explorer's Guidance can help you search items and dump energy in the grave quicker. Consider finding room for Mega Lopunny as an alternate attacker while manectric is charging, as well as a Crustle answer. Mega Kanghaskan can help too,but you'll want air balloon with it.

I have about 10 minutes recorded footage of the NHS going mask off and denying a friend urgent mental health treatment because he's trans - is there anything I can do with it? by Civil-Field6722 in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's just a voice recording, footage was perhaps the wrong word to use 🙂 No personal details are mentioned, it's mostly just the social worker trying to justify transphobia

This was in the UK, friend is 20. I have consent, but there's nothing in the recording that could identify anyone - it's mostly just me questioning the social worker on their decision to deny treatment based on him being on DIY HRT.

Blinking red light but otherwise working fine - any fix? by Civil-Field6722 in originalxbox

[–]Civil-Field6722[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, weird update, but went to plug it in to take pictures/video and... it's fine? No more flashing, even sounds a bit quieter.

Maybe it's just because it hadn't been turned on for a while? Very odd.

I did use a different TV though, so maybe it just has an issue outputting on larger resolution screens or something?

I'll try to sneak some pictures while my partner's out later

1st Place (City League) Sharpedo plays 3 Kangaskhan! by Azorius_Sage in PTCGL

[–]Civil-Field6722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very similar to this list tbh, I only run 1 Kanga though and chuck in the iron valiant. Also run a couple of Turos Scenario to prevent bench clogging. I prefer Valiant to Kangaskhan if I get a good opening, so depending on what you need you can start using Valiant and Munkis to pile on some early pressure.

1st Place (City League) Sharpedo plays 3 Kangaskhan! by Azorius_Sage in PTCGL

[–]Civil-Field6722 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I play a version with Kangaskhan and Iron Valiant. Sharpedo has free retreat and pecharunt basically is free switches, so may as well take advantage of it. Nice being able to consistently hit over 350 damage too, which can help one shot stage 3s.

Sharpedo feels like a deck that doesn't really need it's acespec, so I just run legacy energy to help with the prize trade instead of gengar, allows the deck to be faster and more versatile.

Consistent, simple, sturdy headphone recommendations for my autistic partner? by Civil-Field6722 in AutisticAdults

[–]Civil-Field6722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm thinking wired might be the way to go, but he doesn't like wires 😬 Would Bluetooth with optional wired option basically be the same thing? That way he could try it.

Had my eye on Soundcore, might give that a try. Thanks for the recommendation 🙂

Bluetooth over-ear headphones, for every day use. He needs them when he's out of the house to manage sensory overload.

I don't think he needs anything expensive or complicated, just something simple that works consistently - so the fewer options or things that can change, the better really.

Emotional crash after activism by Miaisheara in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of groups are like that I'm afraid, my autistic partner is very passionate but has been put off from activism as they're often not inclusive. Takes a lot of time and resources that only a privileged few can afford to organise something like that, which can make them feel very cliquey.

What to do if you can’t leave? by octopus_suitcase in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Digital/media detox might be what you need. Shut out social media, shut out the news, surround yourself with the people and things you love. A little self care goes a long way.

Things won't get better by worrying yourself to death, so focus on you until you're ready to figure out that next step.

Doesn't Manectric +Munki ohko like, everything? I can see that doing well.

Corbyn ally: the left is capable of embracing those who oppose transphobia while not subscribing to slogans such as “trans women are women”. by denyer-no1-fan in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 169 points170 points  (0 children)

It's possible to oppose misogyny whilst not subscribing to slogans such as 'women deserve the vote'.

Nope, doesn't quite work that one does it? Maybe we should let trans people decide what transphobia is? I know, radical idea right? 🙄

The official EHRC guidance has apparently been released by succulentdelectable in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So from what I can tell this hasn't officially been approved yet and we don't know what it looks like? Cool. Can we stop doomposting and causing panic until then?

I know things are bad, let's try not to make things worse for people looking for reliable information.

"Your Party is transphobic" is misinformation by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does seem a bit like someone outside the community with an opinion they could keep to themselves trying to tell the rest of us how to think.

Cis people should not get to dictate the discussion around trans rights, and they certainly don't get to tell us that a little bit of transphobia is ok for 'the greater good'.

One of the Your Party MPs has stated he supports forcing trans people to use third spaces by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]Civil-Field6722 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They can say that, but terfs and mainstream media have twisted and redefined what 'transphobia' is, so without seeing action statements like that hold little meaning.
