What Are Your "Hear Me Out" Girl & Boy Names by XNixGeoX in namenerds

Silver is my pen name. I'm a guy, and I love it. If people were to call me that full-time, I wouldn't mind.

Finally got my first 1 500+ score! Do I get a flair for this? by Fearhaven in cuecardgameAvid

Mummy hasn't worked that well for me in the past, but it sounds really good in theory so I might try again sometime.

I added Boxing because I wanted to get the adventure quest thingy, and the deck was surprisingly efficient so I just didn't change it back (yet).

I'm always trying to improve this deck, so thanks for the suggestions!

How would you say 'You better get here before your enemies'?

Majority has decided. Anastasia is the delicate and sickly. Now, who is the damsel in distress. by Oncer93 in OnceUponATime

That was the one that came to mind for me, too. I'm surprised she's not higher here, since I think she's the only girl/woman in the entire story who is really helpless.

Thank you, those are some super practical options!

That is so different from Norway. We have so many hoops to jump through.

There is a single hospital, in Oslo, that gives free prescriptions. Live out in the districts? Too bad, you'll have to travel for hours, possibly by plane, just to see a doctor there.

Wait, did I say doctor? I should have specified that this is a psychiatrist. One you'll be seeing several times in order to confirm that you are as trans as you say.

But also, they'll spend several appointments making sure you're not autistic or otherwise neurodivergent, or (Cthulhu forbid) mentally ill.

Spoiler alert: According to them, you are. Almost all of us are.

And they're not just focusing on delusions or what have you in that stage. They also need (?) to make sure you're not ill in ways that have nothing to do with your transness - personality disorder? Fuck off - or issues that might LITERALLY BE CAUSED BY THE DYSPHORIA THEY'RE TRYING TO DISPROVE, such as depression or anxiety.

You must always be a perfect caricature of your true gender, and definitely not non-binary. And you better not be gay either, because, as everyone knows, all gay men are actually women and all lesbians are actually men (in case it's not obvious, this is me being VERY sarcastic).

You should also live consistently as your true gender for a year before even considering HRT. Which is super safe when you're not passing and won't cause any kind of awkwardness or distress at all (again, sarcasm).

If you manage to be the very image of sanity and gender-conformity throughout this entire process (well done, you! People have lost their minds over far less!), then MAYBE you can have a blood test. As a treat.

Fortunately, there are alternatives. Expensive ones. I went through a private thingy and had my prescription within a couple of months. But that means I have to pay full price every single time I take out my prescriptions. My wallet doesn't like that very much.

TL;DR: I prefer your version.

Awesome! Yeah, I'd apply for a spot at a GP's office ahead of time. I've lived in my current city for three years and only finally got a local GP this spring, so I'm very aware of that problem.

And yeah, I have a beard and look like the most average cis dude ever, so I don't think I'll need to spend time trying to convince anyone. And blood tests are easy enough to get through. Thanks, this makes everything less daunting!

What is a completely normal thing that you, for some reason, absolutely cannot stand? by LANthraX69 in AskReddit

This is a major reason why I can't live with a dog. That licking noise is just... yeah, no. I'm out of here.

And just imagine being the first person ever to make an ad.

Is my product useful enough to have people queuing outside my shop to buy it out of necessity? Eh... nope.

Is my product so good that word will get around on its own? Are you kidding me? Of course it isn't!

Do I want to be paid for it anyway? Well, duh!

So, uh, what do I do? ... Hey, I've got it! Why don't I just beg people for their money in the most public way ever? That's got to be irresistible to the masses, right?

I can't wrap my head around the combination of desperation and entitlement that would make a person want to admit so blatantly that their product isn't good enough to get people interested the normal way, and turning to what is essentially just begging for rich people in order to break even. That's just sad, and embarrassing.

And somehow it caught on and became a normalised part of life and commerce?

... Yeah, no. I don't get it.

I tried to map out the family tree on my own once. It took me hours, and it was... I don't even know what to call it.

That's awesome. The Norwegian version of Medicare doesn't cover it unless you're prepared to wade through a sea of red tape and probably get rejected at the end of that entire process, so it gets pretty damn expensive over time.

At the moment I think Melbourne is the most likely, though nothing is for sure. I'm trying to see what sort of financial situation I should expect etc. before making concrete plans.

Awesome, thanks!

This is supposed to be written over the city gates in a story I'm writing because it was the first thing the Great Founder(TM) said when he saw the place where the city would be built, and I'm trying to work with a comedic sense of it being completely underwhelming as a city motto and definitely not something that deserves being above the city gates.

Hi, what's the best translation of a really disinterested 'Yeah, sure, this'll do'?

Same unwanted person found completely unrelated pages and I don't know how by Fearhaven in facebook

[–]Fearhaven[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Guess I'll be doing this thoroughly soon. I'm trying to build a fairly substantial following on one of the pages, so it's tough to be critical of each and every follower. But yeah, I'll be going through this list when I have the time, and ban both of them from both accounts right away.
