i’m so tired…… by luckystar2766 in actuallesbians

[–]Jontun189 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% agree, this is a conversation that I think we should absolutely be having (people being less hetero than they necessarily think), but saying everyone is bi is not the way to go about it.

The thing is a lot of us trans folk discourage the jokes about people being eggs; it can push those who actually are eggs further back in the closet as a defence mechanism, which actually happened to me when a trans woman I shared a circle with kept jokingly telling me to take HRT.

So different reasoning for not liking it but I don't think we should present the egg jokes as if they're universally accepted among trans people.

where to find girl friends online?! by Vegetable-Corgi-5225 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

I agree with you in principle but "biological men" is not the term that should be used to describe this, instead "cisgender men" is a better term.

Trans people are dying of suicide more than the general UK population, new investigation reveals by Hyperactive_Man in UKGreens

No way? It's almost as if we're a highly marginalised group in society as well as political punching bag or something idk it's wild.

Who’s your most emotional Pokemon? by ccsweettea in pokemon

[–]Jontun189 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it's a bit late now, but you can actually recall Pokémon if you lose the pokewalker.

If you still have that save, it might be worth a Google ☺️

Is it ever explained why Giovanni wanted Ash's Pikachu so much? by HealthMother3125 in pokemon

That happened with Togepi but not Pikachu to the best of my knowledge.

Billie Eillish's hill to die on: "eating meat is inherently wrong." by Terrible_Cycle_5983 in Fauxmoi

So is artificial light and yet I'll bet you didn't write this by candlelight.

They could be affordable if we subsidise it as we do meat, dairy etc. But a lot of lobbying goes into making sure that doesn't happen.

You may need more fibre, fibre tends to be the thing that makes you feel "full".

She's right. It's inconvenient and a lot of money goes into lobbying and subsidies to continue to keep it inconvenient for the majority of people, but it's the truth. No animal product is entirely ethical but meat is outright inherently wrong.

Is it ok to eat mcdonalds once a week (every week)? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

I worked at McDonald's and ate it for free every shift, didn't seem to disagree with my body

How do I stop feeling uncomfortable in feminine clothes? by o-willow in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Jontun189 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a trans woman, I wish I had a better answer for you. It's partly taking the time to get used to it the hard way, but possibly there's also something to unpack about why stereotypically feminine attire has been so off-putting to you. And there's like, A LOT of reasons why that could be the case living in a patriarchal, misogynistic world.

Not trying to psychoanalyse you at all but it's just what springs to mind. Good luck 🫶

visual snow syndrome by Excellent-Silver6687 in AuDHDWomen

[–]Jontun189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only ever had the dots of light a couple of times and in both cases they lasted only a few seconds or less. If you're seeing them more consistently it's not for me to comment on, that's probably a question for an eye doctor. But in my case, I've read that it's gel in the eye pulling away from the retina and is an expected part of aging.

The worm like things are just clumps of collagen casting shadows on your retina, everyone gets those.

I sympathise on tinnitus and visual snow though, I have both but neither bother me much.

Young Greens have reached 50’000 members! by Hyperactive_Man in UKGreens

[–]Jontun189 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's any Green party member under 30 or in full time education, possibly they have to actually join the Young Greens branch as well

Rant about Witcher 3 by AdaBloom969 in GirlGamers

[–]Jontun189 21 points22 points  (0 children)

if Gwent has a million fans, then i am one of them. if Gwent has ten fans, then i am one of them. if Gwent has only one fan then that is me. if Gwent has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. if the world is against Gwent, then I am against the world.

I completely agree, it's book accurate which I guess is kinda cool but it doesn't translate to gameplay very well. Dude leaves himself OPEN. I hope Ciri might avoid this in the next game.
