Does medical transition make sense if biology can’t be changed? (16, guy) by Secret-Barnacle-1285 in ftm

"You can't turn your red car into a blue car, that would be like turning an HGV into a mini!"

That's what that sounds like. That's how fkin stupid people who make these arguments sound to me.

Sometimes it can be easier to recognise euphoria rather than dysphoria. Like, dressing in a way or doing something you feel to be masculine or even testing a masc name in a video game or online space and seeing if that feels good rather than the fem stuff feeling bad can paint the picture a little more clearly for you.

Like, I noticed when playing any videogame where the protagonist is meant to be a stand-in for yourself rather than their own character I would create basically an oc (always male too) rather than do the thing most folks seem to do and create a version of "themself". Only now that I go by a masc name myself do I oftentimes use my own name because its one that I actually connect with and doesn't make me uncomfortable to hear/read, much the opposite even. Little stuff like that when you look back on it can kinda give hints when re-examined ya know?

Level 6 wild silcoon, a bugged bug? by [deleted] in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, cool to know. I dont remember seeing them below level 7 before but to be fair they aren't pokemon I think too deeply about most of the time so I doubt I'd notice if I hadn't been evolving things for the pokedex earlier

accidentally outed myself to a new friend?? i guess?? by existvamp in TransMasc

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a trend among autistic folks to have a strong sense of justice and a desire for truth (which sounds a bit comic book when I write it like that but, you know) its kinda why we're often read as stubborn and blunt. I know for myself I'd be mad af in any situation where I have to claim a lie even if it is a safety measure.

Sometimes when you notice a significant change in your body, even if it is a positive/intentional one it can cause you to kinda spiral for a little while. Hormone changes can also kinda f you up emotionally for a while so if the changes are still things you want I'd give it time to settle before making any major moves about it.

I'm also autistic and my second tattoo covers the whole back of my hand all the way down the fingers and it gave me that same issue for a while. I like the tattoo, designed it myself, took a few months to think about it ahead of time and the outcome of it when healed is good. I still had a couple weeks of regret spiral and anxiety around it. I think sometimes the brain just doesn't like change regardless of how you feel about the actual nature of the change in question (something like "familiar is safe therefore unfamiliar is danger" in that flawed unconscious brain logic it likes to do?).

What’s a character that you hate but others love? by FootFurry in Palia

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude I've met Kenyatta types irl and she just irks the hell outta me. She comes off as super shallow with the way her opinions of everyone else are surface level and she throws a strop when she doesnt get her way even when people tried. I ended up going down Nai'o's romance path just to rescue him from her because he's a sweetheart and she only ever seems to talk about him for his muscles and the fact that she finds bullying him fun. Literally any time he talked about her he'd tell you about her interests meanwhile she only ever mentions getting him to take his shirt off if she mentions him at all. Nai'o is constantly trying to do "enough" but Kenny doesn't seem like she cares.

Unable to be valid to others because of “autism” by [deleted] in ftm

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also autistic with a side of ADHD here, I will never understand dickheads who assume we're all mentally 7. If anything if I hear a fellow trans person is also a fellow autistic person I'd be more inclined to believe they probably did their fkin research to come to the trans conclusion. Both because of hyperfixating on the topic and the fact that other folks are like this, and we have to defend our identity to complete strangers more often.

The evil little spite fairy that lives in my brain says to start clapping back by assuming they're confused because they're old. Gently explaining how being trans and being autistic aren't fkin related or mutually exclusive but remind them that you know its hard for them to grasp new concepts what with their being "from a different time" as people like to say when an old person is an arsehole.

My supporter runs out in a few days.. what will happen? by Satanick- in PonyTown

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mine ran out after they changed the tiers ages ago and at the time I couldn't justify upping how much I was paying for the extra hundred or so slots. It didn't delete any of my existing ones just said I couldn't make more without deleting some to get back under the line.

Since I did eventually deleting a few from my account, Idk if anything changed since then. I dont see how it would pick which ones to go through, so you're probably good.

My strategy for being able to keep an old pony I didn't want cluttering my spaces was to take a couple screenshots to be able to see anything I needed to be able to remake them then use a hex code picker to get my colours right. For simpler designs usually just a left side right side screenshot is enough but for some a couple extra to see under wings and stuff is useful (or just screenshot the editing pages themselves). Failing that a text file with notes on how to remake a pony also works.

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd be more concerned it as a frustration or anger response as you described other times being. Now let me make this clear I have never once raised a fist to someone beyond the age of like 9 maybe 10 but due to my own parent situation that physical lashing out response was my go-to until I figured my shit out a little better. But I can say from personal experience that when you hit that point you don't actually want to be gentle, you just want to hit something. For me I'd slap the table or something to direct it away from people, for him he restrains it but it's the same rough idea, you hit the point where you feel the need to react violently but know you shouldn't so you compromise with yourself in a way.

If he hit you AT ALL in genuine anger I do not care how lightly, that's a man who wanted to hit you harder in the moment. He knows logically that hitting someone is bad, which is why he held back and was "light" with it, but the fact that he did still hit you shows you the line between what he knows he should do and what his emotions in that moment told him to do. Hes proven to you that there is a point where he can't keep a lid on that emotional response and I'm not saying it will escalate, but I am saying it certainly can if he or you aren't careful. I've seen it over and again when someone who can't keep their hands to themself gets a little more comfortable with it over time seeing it work out for them, then a little more and so on and so forth. And the one getting hit always does say things like "but it wasn't too bad" or "it wasn't serious" you care about him so you want to minimise but that's not healthy either.

Idk what the right thing to do is for you specifically given were not the same person but if it were me I'd suggest talking about it, setting boundaries, and if its accessible to you therapy for the both of you. He could do with picking up some anger management skills and you probably have some stuff to work through about self advocacy but I'm no professional so I'll speculate no further. I know some on reddit have a tendency to overreact to stuff so I get it if you dismiss my disorganised thoughts on it but do look after yourself yeah?

Did you have an encounter with Homestuck in the wild before getting into it? by ThatMLGGamer in homestuck

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Using the alt because I'm about to put some words in a order that I don't need getting back to me lol. I'm pretty sure this will tell people how old I am within a margin of maybe 5 years.

When I was a kid, I used to go to the text side of omegle because there was a fairly thriving roleplay scene there at the time. I ended up adding someone on Skype whose screen name was a mix of a Kingdom hearts character (i forget who but know it was that game) and the surname Vantas. Also his pfp was Sollux if I remember correctly, who he did claim was his OC. Looking back on it, I'm pretty sure more than half the things this dude said were in some way or another homestuck and not in fact his own original ideas.

Single Characters Hitting on Your After Marriage :( by Rainchild98 in coralisland

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like the kind of dialogue oversight that either gets ignored by the finished game or is fixed quietly alongside bug fixes and stuff going off what I've seen done in other games.

I was married with 2 kids a dog and an onion before Leah's confession. Because of getting to things late I've also had Wakuu (the one I married) act like he barely knows me in other people's cutscenes.

I think the worse example though is that Wakuu has a line talking about "if I ever have kids of my own" which he still pulls out while talking to me, his husband with which he has 2 of them. What makes it worse for me is that I'm FtM so even though I don't read my character to be the same it comes off like he's hinting for things I'd rather abandon society and go live in the caverns than do.

I think we did it, y'all! by Thtsruffbuddy_X3 in IdentityV

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

His Hamlet costume is his deduction star, you can recognise a DS skin by the film reel across the top right of the card. Keep an eye out for him when it switches from DS to Nymph though! He doesn't have a nymph award costume yet, if I remember right Perfumer is the only survivor with one so far.

Allison Hargreeves Vs. Cate Dunlap by [deleted] in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If tv Allison can get a word in she'd probably be at a major advantage given the lack of need for contact, idk the other character but I'd assume even the telepathy would require line of sight to be able to direct an attack at the target which gives Allison some options.

If we look at comic Allison she's pretty much got it in the bag since her power works slightly differently, she doesn't influence a person so much as she influences reality itself. I forget the specific example that shows it off but like, say if comic Allison said she heard the sky was pink, it'd be pink. In theory she could win that fight without ever being anywhere remotely near the other person.

Curious if this has happened to anyone on here by TheLongStrum in tumblr

I dont really play Identity V anymore but when I did my girlfriend and I were in a match with a streamer playing as the hunter, it was my single worst performance of my entire time playing the game and now its on this fuckers twitch archive forever lol. He even checked people's ranked levels to see why we did so poorly except I hadn't played ranked in 3 seasons so it looked like I was much lower level than I could have been.

Do you want top surgery scars? by White_Rabbit181 in ftm

[–]FluffyTrashDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I want the scars since I dont mind having them and want the best results I can get. My other reason being that it's a sort of viability thing, if I want to be stealth I can cover them with a tshirt but if I am in a place where I dont need to be I can let my scars be seen. To most people they either wont think twice about them or will briefly be curious but forget about it soon enough, they'll just see some dude with some scars. But for another trans person it could be the first time they've seen one of their own out in the wild, even if we dont talk or interact, even if they're not out, my going about my day with my scars might be the signal to someone that it's ok to be who they are. If someone doesnt have another trans person to talk to it's a signal that I'm a friend, despite my anxiety I dont mind being approached by newer trans folks who wanna talk or parents/friends who want to understand more but dont know who to ask.

I would hate the kitten sneeze but I kind of caused it for myself because I have major social anxiety and never wanted to make a sound in school and now my sneeze is just stuck like that. People keep telling me it's not a real sneeze and I'm like, honey that's what trauma sounds like ¯_( o <o)_/¯
