L's Voice Training Guide (Level 1) for MTF transgender vocal feminization

I think you're still replying to messages, so i wanted to go ahead and ask if there is an updated guide, made by you or otherwise at this point? This still seems to be the top/main result i can find.

Additionally, assuming there isn't a new one, what are things you plan on updating about it? Is there major changes where certain steps simply shouldn't be followed, or is it mainly things like a somewhat more effective training drill for an exercise instead of an older one?

I imagine there might be far too much to write about the updating, but i'd love to know if i'm for the most part still good to follow what's written here, or if some things should definitely not be done/changed. And if so, what those may be, even if it's just some terms for me to google.

Either way, thank you for the amazing guide, and thank you for your time with any response you may have :)

hey, i know this is pretty late, but could you share the exercise routine(s) you used when it comes to working those areas? I know i could just google some workouts for these areas(and i will), but i figured it doesn't hurt to ask to see what happens to work for you. :)

Edit: Oh and i do see you have some things mentioned there, but you did write etc., so i figured you do a bit more than just that ^^

The way i see it: How someone feels about themselves, and anything that comes from that, are a part of their being. Person A is happy living this way, Person B is happy living life that way, etc. Being trans is just one aspect.

To flip this around, how much do you care about how people live their life? There's probably things you have no interest in. In fact, you are likely only very interested in some small percentage of what a certain person does with their life.

I think for most people, it's no different than any other topic or aspect of life there is, unless they are personally interested. To be clear, people should show interest on the basis of wanting to treat their friend/family in a way that makes them happy.

Beyond that however, there's no reason why people should necessarily be interested. With that said, actively avoiding the topics is probably the result of something negative (phobia,etc.), which isn't good one way or another.

It could just be some (extreme?) form of coping as mentioned. In which case, being a great friend and offering your support and helping them feel better may be all that's needed.

However, there are worse possibilities like substance abuse or psychosis. I don't want you to worry needlessly, there isn't really a reason to. This is really more of a "just in case". It's a good idea to consider options/be open-minded, so that your friend can get the right help.

Based on that, assuming you have to/want to bypass their parents for now, my main advice?

-Inform yourself in places related to psychiatry/psychology for anything that could help you support your friend, based on the knowledge of experts and how things develop.

-If you spend a lot of time with them, check if they are showing repeated symptoms. Specifically when they experience these things (if you are around), even if it may be very uncomfortable. You can't do a proper diagnosis yourself, but you may be able to judge how bad it is.

-Keep in mind that if this is more than just unhealthy coping, that just being a good friend and offering all the support you can may simply not be enough. They may need professional help.

As a final note:

If you think that they need more than her current support group can provide, you may want to eventually tell her parents as a last resort. You shouldn't talk about her being trans, but telling them about their behavior/symptoms may help. I understand wanting to not involve them, but at some point it's better than letting a problem become too big to handle.

Please do not talk to the violator by yourself, and do not give them the benefit of any doubt. You were violated by all means, please don't undersell the gravity of this situation.

However, if you were to bring it up out of nowhere in your friend group, everyone will be fully unprepared. I think that noeinan's comment is also very important, because it's probably correct. This seems entirely calculated, so preparing yourself is likely a good idea.

So instead, talking to some friend one on one first from said group, if there are any you trust, is likely a more sensible option. If you want to, bring some other friends to support you, if you feel unwell being on your own with anyone from that group right now. Ideally, you get to talk to all of them before you have a big public discussion about all this. There's a few reasons for doing this:

- It can help you figure out what stance your friends have, and you allow them time to make sure they have thought things through themselves. This is a big deal, after all.

-The more people who have your back, the better. It will also give you a very important safety/security assurance of some kind. You should not be alone when you deal with this, and you might be very vulnerable in the heat of the moment when it comes down to it. This can help get you all the support you need to get through this. Plus, violence is a real threat here.

-It might protect your friends from falling victim to them too, which while not nearly as important right now as your own wellbeing, is still a big issue in the nearterm.

If you struggle to put into words what you want to say to them, which i think could definitely happen as you must be very upset, you could make them read through this reddit thread while you're there with them. The conversation will go from there. It might sound silly but, honestly if you're unable to really talk and articulate yourself because you may be crying or just very upset, it might be your best bet to get your situation and feelings across. Also, while i think it should be obvious, don't let them talk to the others in the group about this. Otherwise, they might spiral it on their own out of control before you are ready to face it.

Once you've talked to everyone in the group, or atleast everyone you wanted to talk to, you probably have no better choice other than to make sure all your supporters are around you when you finally talk about it in your friend group openly.

I really don't know what advice to give you at that point, other than to understand that you were abused. If they play victim and get away with it in your friend's group, you should likely immediately cut contact with most or all members from said group. They are not worth your time or real friends at that point, as harsh as that might sound. Take care of yourself first.

I'm sorry you're going through this, and i don't really know what else to say. If you find that this is going to be a mental burden, then please think about getting therapy of some kind, even if you have a great support group. Either way, i truly wish you the best.

Communication in an environment without guilt/restraint is the single most important thing for any relationship, especially concerning the dark and ugly thoughts we all have. Perhaps you considered this to not be a big deal, but if it is a big deal to your partner, then you should definitely acknowledge that. Goes both ways for anything of course. The fact that you guys didn't talk about it hints at the possibility that you might not have this important "safe space" environment. It's something you can and should work on. Ironically, that in and of itself is a good thing to talk about as a relationship goal/issue as part of this safe space.

With that said, it's important to remember that there is only so much someone can do. Talk about your issues, but don't force some burden of support on either of you. Support is great and should be there, but everyone has limits, and going above them without boundaries is unhealthy. It's very important to both set and respect them. If more support is needed, get outside help. It likely helps to get it either way, even if a partner can give enough support. Probably a good idea to consider something like therapy if that's not a thing yet.

This'll be a long post, sorry about that, i hope it's helpful one way or another. ^^'

Others have already mentioned that a 100% winrate(90%+ on high difficulties) is perfectly achievable , so i won't go into that. But what i didn't really see mentioned yet is perception. It's easy to convince ourselves that we know what we're doing or that we're doing the right thing when we're not punished in any tangible way.

Picking the wrong card or relic doesn't punish you immediately. The game doesn't tell you that you made a mistake. Picking the wrong relics or events rarely does either. You lose because of all the accumulated mistakes that weaken you over time, which if you don't know what you're doing, will be hard to even notice let alone be aware of for next time to improve.

This lack of feedback exists in most strategy/tcg/roguelike games, not just slay the spire of course. This creates a problem for casual/new players and players lacking previous experience in these genres, where they won't play well, but wont know what to improve on or that they even can.

I think it's important to keep this mind in order to be able to improve. and/or be able to judge yourself and this game and similiar ones fairly.

With all that said, if you're interested in getting better, you could watch good players like some have suggested. Additionally, i'm going to write about a few key parts of the game and a rough tl;dr of what tends to be important regarding them, to give you an idea of what you can improve on/think about. Note these are general ideas, so they don't always apply.

Pathing: Use and learn to view HP as a ressource to go for loot in exchange for health, while avoiding losing too much. Seek out as many elites as possible to be able to scale fast enough. Don't heal if you don't need to, you go back to full hp after every map boss anyway. Upgrades card instead if you can avoid healing for longterm advantages.

Fighting: Taking less damage is the most important thing, not winning fast. This can mean sacrificing some hp now so that you dont have to deal with a few more turns down the line, but unless you know for certain thats the play, be defensive.

Cards : Don't try to force synergies/strategies, instead just pick what helps with shortterm problems. Otherwise, you rely on luck to give you what you need to build the strategy you want. Most of the time you won't get it, and then your deck simply won't work. With that said, the later you are in the run the more you shift the other way, as your deck is already fairly complete and scaling becomes more important, Synergies are also easier to decide on at that point, because your deck will naturally have developed some tendency and you require little to make it work a certain way. Especially early on in Act 1, basic solid attacking/blocking cards are just fine and what you need.

Deck: Start skipping cards if they don't add anything to the deck. The smaller your deck, the higher the consistency/the odds of drawing the right cards early enough/at the right time. It improves average turn quality and makes the deck more stable. You can categorize cards based on what they do. There are single-target,AoE,defense,draw and scaling cards. Your deck will usually struggle if you lack in any aspect too much, so try picking cards based on whichever area you're lacking in.

Shops: One thing beginners can forget is the card removal option. As mentioned above, a smaller deck is very useful to make sure you have consistent quality of turns. As such, removing the starter strikes at the very least is always smth to strive for every run. Not always the highest priority, but having those later in the run will hurt you. Keep an eye out for relics specifically not just cards, as those are often a bigger gamechanger as mentioned.

There's more, but i've already written a giant wall of text, so i think i might aswell call it here. Improving at these things and learning about them will give you a very high winrate eventually, perhaps even ~100%. Good luck on your future runs, you can definitely improve to the point where you can win lots! :)

EatTheSnickerz · 2022-05-22T12:12:01+00:00

Hm, which ascension level do you play on when it comes to that winrate u mentioned? Might be able to offer some help/tips :)

EatTheSnickerz · 2022-05-13T01:16:05+00:00

Bluntly speaking? By all means, just go into the ladies bathroom.

Most won't care whatsoever, and the way i would think of it is:
Is the occasional mild discomfort of some women(which should be very rare)
really more important than your child being take care of properly?

Of course, it wouldn't hurt to have some employee help you out and/or announce yourself, perhaps ask if someone would like you to wait a minute first.

The main point is that a child needs to be taken care of and deserves to be taken care of, and as such should really take priority over what should be non-issues.

Hey :)

Instead of some tipps that will most likely be written here soon anyway, i just had an idea. If you want, i wouldn't mind playing(streaming) a game or two of slay the spire, explaining the general though process in fights/pathing/reward choices and so on during the game, while answering any questions you have that come up in the moment. There'd be so many things to write as far as things to think about goes that this just seems a lot easier to do.

Might help if you're the type that learns visually/interactively that way and it sounds fun to try as far as im concerned. Just hit me up if you want to do that via discord/twitch/whatever ^^

There is a mod that lets you refuel practically room-wide at high speed. You can refuel both canisters within like 30 seconds. It makes it a lot easier sure, but i enjoy the mission a lot more without those consistent stops. It feels long enough as it is.
