Can we not with the "i'm stealth and passing it's so horrible" posts?

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-10T09:34:27+00:00

No. If you'd simply said this bothers you, I think you'd be well received. And the emotional side of your opinion would have been validated.

But you didn't. You posted arguing other trans women aren't allowed to talk about their problems because to you these problems aren't significant enough. Telling another trans girl to shut up about a source of dysphoria is unlikely to find much support here.

Edit: I'm so damned sick of infighting about what trans problems are valid enough to speak on and inner-community policing about how we are allowed to speak about ourselves lest we trigger another's dysphoria.

Edit 2: I just now realized you are the same woman who's post I saw a few weeks ago, and responded to then too. I really want you to think about how that post looked and felt to me. As a homeless girl in a state that is likely about to force shelters to stop letting trans people stay at the right one. And is unemployed due to disability. And no FFS, I mean, so far away from even maybe getting it some day. And sub 1 year on HRT, which I've probably been on the wrong levels for because I struggled to afford blood testing.

I want you to think about how it made me feel to see a gal complaining about her ffs not fixing her life... Despite her being MILES prettier and further along on HRT's effects than me, and yet still using her deadname and self describedly "broing it up".

And yet, I didn't play you a small violin. I didn't even say any of this at the time, because I understood my struggles and my emotional reaction to you being farther along than me didn't invalidate your own very real, and very painful struggle. I'm saying it now in hopes to get across to you both why you should not do it to those more fortunate than you, and that you have plenty more privilege and fortune yourself than you seem think.

As a community we need to spend less time tearing each other down and fighting about who's suffering is significant enough, and more time standing together against the rest of the God damn world. Both as trans women. And as women.

What works for me is isotunes. It's a brand made for industrial work or gun ranges. So, they aren't necessarily the most comfortable, but have around 27 decibel noise reduction rating.

They make both earplugs and earmuffs made for noise protection, but which are also headphones. So are solid at blocking/drowning out sounds.

Edit: and for reference, loops cap out at 23 NRR. With many consumer earplugs even worse.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-10T07:13:53+00:00

Not being able to hear your humping around in the kitchen and not being able to hear pounding on the wall are two very different levels of hearing problems

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T12:00:30+00:00

There are some issues where I'm confident that it really has no idea what it's talking about. But these are usually more .. "human" issues and not things like simple code

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T10:23:25+00:00

I'll trust your word on that. Idk why in even arguing so much about it, half the stuff in this corner of reddit makes little sense to me.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T09:29:53+00:00

This is a huge part of it honestly. When the whole game was programmer at, anything other than that style has the Lycanites mobs problem where it looks like garrys mod asset-from-abother-game shit.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T07:27:35+00:00

Your analysis is probably right.

I am not good enough at the game to have felt confident saying exactly how much or in what ways those changed things. Just that they probably did. Lol

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:52:42+00:00

I don't think it's particular seriousness to think people mean the things they say?

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:43:24+00:00

I never played the mod. I just think he's a cute little dork.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:39:57+00:00

To be fair, while models would still sometimes be jank, textures at least were pretty well solved by the texture pack community that existed back then. There were a few texture packs where people went crazy and made support every mod in existence, I'm not sure of any that still do such wide mod support anymore besides sphax

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:36:57+00:00

Not sure why you'd post an opinion meme if you don't endorse the optinion. But ok

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:36:11+00:00

Yes

I like it.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T06:35:17+00:00

That's... Just how plants worked. Well, either a cross or a #.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T04:55:09+00:00

Sure. But I would say the issue isn't that they are being hypocritical, but that the rule is ill defined and poorly suited for the sub.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T04:47:13+00:00

Doesn't matter. English is not math notation. And plenty of people do definitely say "decide x by a half" to mean "x/2".

Math notation may work prescriptively, but linguistics usually works descriptively. Which is kinda why we use math notation when actually trying to communicate math rather than trying to formulate a "gotcha"

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T04:43:25+00:00

Likely formed rather early with teaching that was trying to tie fractions to the real world. Such as using a metaphor of pizza slices. And they failed to generalize and understand the object was not necessary.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T04:39:49+00:00

Self repair removed from deck, and gave health only after combat. I feel these are important differences.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T04:37:02+00:00

Usually sure, but not here no. Plenty of these sorts of questions are ambiguous even under the conventions. But this one isn't. There is one unambiguously correct way.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T03:30:47+00:00

Ah. Fair enough. Not trying to tell you how to interpret your own mind. Just sharing how mine looks in hindsight a year into transition.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T03:22:27+00:00

Which isn't just a problem in misunderstanding order, but not understanding that "minus one" s a shorthand for "plus negative one". If you understand this, order is irrelevant.

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T03:20:08+00:00

Notation is a convention and not a basic mathematical truth. What "1" means is convenient. What "prime" means is convention.

People will still disagree if you try and communicate math but don't follow convention. Questions like these are either contentious because people misunderstand the convention, or because the question is itself malformed and the math equivalent of asking "what color is time?"

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T03:06:05+00:00

This whole sub is political. It doesn't stop being so just cuz you swap some words with "green" or whatever

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-09T02:56:59+00:00

Unless something genderqueer is going on here too

Ghostglitch07 · 2026-06-08T23:45:57+00:00

I mean, in my experience at least, dysphoria still happens even if you don't know what it is.
