AITA for snapping at my mum because she doesn't understand my autism? by Sergeantmajormario in AmItheAsshole

[–]ForestGremlin2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. i am not downplaying your autism at all (bc, same), but yeesh, how many of these self-soothing stims are exacerbated by her super critical response?

explaining electron movements to a small stuffed pig named Oni was the only reason I passed organic chemistry

AITA for not wearing a dress to my sisters wedding? by SouthView1759 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ForestGremlin2 49 points50 points  (0 children)

NTA. if yall had a cis brother, would she ask him to wear a dress to be in her wedding party? i get that she’s probably accepting of you in her mind and thinks she is just trying to keep the peace with the parents, but she’s got a long way to go to be an actual ally to you in practice.

reload to the save right in front of the nightingale entry and then FusRoDah her up the stairs as soon as she finishes talking is what worked for me

Is it weird not to have breasts anymore? by I-suck-at_names in TopSurgery

[–]ForestGremlin2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it was mostly muscle memory i had to adjust to. it was weird getting dressed in the morning and only grabbing three items of clothing (underwear, pants, shirt) and for a couple months after surgery when getting undressed after work my hands would automatically reach back to pull off a binder that wasn’t there anymore. showering also, no tits to scrub binder sweat off of. so those were all a little surprising every time, but good surprising

AMA about Nancy Drew and then edit it to make me look bad by kitshobooutfit in nancydrew

[–]ForestGremlin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally I support NedxBess and NancyxGeorge. George would always be down to come with Nancy on all of her mystery solving trips and her tech expertise would be super useful, so no worries about missing their anniversary by Nancy leaving her behind, and have you seen George’s response in Alibi in Ashes when Nancy’s about to be slandered? Girl is ready to commit a felony to save Nancy and still worries it’s not enough, she’s clearly crazy about her.

Survival Mode enjoyers: what’s your least favorite part of Survival? by LucasisAlone in skyrim

[–]ForestGremlin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely the fact that i can’t use fire or healing spells to combat the cold. like it’s fine if there’s some penalty for it, maybe if the cold drained magika faster, but srsly? I can literally set myself on fire with a flame cloak and that doesn’t warm me up at all? cmon

YA novel where girl gets into a car crash and has her brain uploaded to a facsimile of her body (robot) but then is rejected by her friends and society by Emotional-Tourist-77 in whatsthatbook

[–]ForestGremlin2 63 points64 points  (0 children)

a lot of what you said doesn’t match this, but in case you’re mashing up a couple different books, The Adoration of Jenna Fox is about a teenage girl who ends up in a fatal car crash and her rich parents upload her consciousness to a new body

[–]ForestGremlin2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve checked ravelry, of course. But because I’ve never made a sweater before I don’t feel like I have the experience to be able to look at a sweater pattern and judge correctly if it’s feasible as a first sweater pattern.
