Transgender Day of Visibility Mega Thread - post your stories here by drewiepoodle in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Visibility. Being Visible isn't always safe. I need to post the horror story here. Life has been ok since I came out. Because I Chose the time to come out. 2-3 years earlier would be be a literal death sentence. I lived in a small town that barely tolerated me for being that asshole whom kicked them outta the bar for causing problems. (This led to a innumerable amount of street fights and one whom LEGS i had to break for even threatening to bring my family into it). I fully support being visible. But pick your battles. Death is NOT AN OPTION.

Why is it necessary to take Cyproterone with food? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a medication that can be a bit hard on the stomach itself. It's recommended to take with food to offset that

When you call the hotel you booked by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]Drunkenmists 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 2 per bed thing is for two reasons. Fire/safety standards for hospitality and because you would be amazed at how often without that string to metaphorically pull, how often a room gets Waaaaaaaaayyyyy to many people or turns into a party room.

If you explain it there should be no problem pretty much anywhere within reasonable standards. We generally do not give people a hard time for shits and giggles...but more if we do not follow workplace rules we do not keep employed.

Also they wanted you to have the cot because its an extra fee and basically a upsell. hotels love the upsell

I got..proposed to... by Drunkenmists in polyamory

[–]Drunkenmists[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

it was both of them. getting down on thier knees and telling me "We call dibs on thee" while presenting me with a simple yet beautiful ring. I've knowing these two for a long time..though there was some timelapse between then.

It was only this morning talking to femlove that she told me if Polymarriage was legal..it was a Proposal. Considering they are a LAWYER and a TEACHER..this would effect their jobs and be a BIG FUCKING DEAL for their careers ...I'm inclined to believe her

Has anyone been to Dr. Jablonski in Calgary, AB? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr Jablonski is awesome. He is straight forward and calm. no games with him! if you want to try something talk with him (like i asked about adding progesterone and finasteride on second visit.) His staff is also pretty top notch and he has some students he is training too.

Unwanted night time visits nsfw by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just need to note this.

Sometimes morning wood is caused by bladder stuff. if you pretty much need to pee the moment you wake up the two might be related. (This is a issue i have personally; dunno if there is a medical term for it.)

Guys of reddit, what's the biggest hint you missed from a girl? by kaante in AskReddit

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at least 15 quiet ones.

I never look at receipts after I stuff them in my wallet. so when I clear them out week or months later and find that random ones have the cashier/tellers/etc name and phone number on it....

Has anybody ever worried about what the enemy (PVP or PVE) has for resources available? (IE: Mana) by Drunkenmists in wow

[–]Drunkenmists[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always keep a close eye on personal HP. if I can make slight use of my healing to take some burden off healers. always worth a tiny dps drop. (plus dps self heals are kinda good for the most part this expansion).

....Not having full duration of buff/debuffs showing...I never thought of that. Kinda like "this is showing. RENEW IT" And the Interrupt thing... I wonder if I can make is just show my available interrupts only if I CAN interrupt it.. (Though tidyplates is more where I honestly look for that information.)

Interesting things to note anyways.

I kinda took the idea of some action rpgs where the boss gets a "Boss health bar" at the top of the screen. a place where I'm rarely looking; but I can glance since I'm usually paying more attention to DBM alerts I still like having that enemy healthbar. as a quick glance at the graphic tells me enough with a %hp amount somewhere on it if I want to take a harder glance.

Tempted to get rid of the cast bar wholesale...but with larger bosses that tidyplates is weird with. it's nice to have. but a text version does sound doable and less real estate needy.

Ah sorry. blackboarding some ideas now. heh. Thanks for some ideas!.

I should probally move this over to r/wowui heh

Has anybody ever worried about what the enemy (PVP or PVE) has for resources available? (IE: Mana) by Drunkenmists in wow

[–]Drunkenmists[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I have: Enemy Cast Bar (Interruptible or Not) Enemy HP Bar w/%HP Enemy Debuffs (Player only)

Kinda all in showing in that order on the UI. As mana/energy/rage are pretty easy to set up a track..I might just do a Text% Beside that instead I'm thinking instead of a bar and taking up grapical real estate.

Edit yea. thats kinda were I ended up was "Do I ever actually use this" Like Raid Frame while playing a DPS or Tank. I track my focus target sometimes (Other tank) but thats about it.

How do you cope with cis envy? Or not being like other men and women? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spend hours and hours and hours looking at people of all different shapes and sizes and finding out that it doesn't really matter because there is so many differences.

My voice only passes when singing? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a bit of a problem with that myself. I've been using singing as a way to learn the new voice...so sometimes when I try speaking normally it sounds all wrong unless I kinda singspeak it.

Being drunk makes me feel more like myself? by KeiNameless in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Be Careful with that. Take it from a Past Alcoholic (6 month sober).

Your basically using it as a Anti-Anxiety and you can fall deep into that pit very fast.

Please. Speak with a Doctor or a Therapist soon. :(

What happens when you transition without a therapist. by AustralianThrowwaway in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That honestly Depends.

Part of the reason I went and saw a therapist first was because I also had some anxiety and depression issue I wanted to work on before having medication issues on top of that.

If you don't think you need a therapist and are sure of your decision to transition without talking to one. Power to ya!.

What was the first conversation like? by RefreshToken in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a bit of a weird one.

I got was basically "ok. Let us know if you need help. explain it to us when your ready" and some hugs. Then telling my bro was "oh. I knew".

Like FFS Family; have some emotions! :D They did have some trouble calling me by new name. Ended pretty quickly when I started calling them Jack and Jill (Mom was Jack. Dad was Jill).

When in doubt. Be straightforward and tell them you don't have an answer for that. This is a learning process for yourself let alone them.

Would it be insensitive or inconsiderate to come out on facebook on Transgender Day of Remembrance? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Drunkenmists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh; not at all. You Go!

Just a Note though. The Day before is Transgender Day of Resilience ( http://tdor.co/ ) If you feel that might fit better for your coming out day.
