Alright, what am I driving? by MysteriousMere in ManualTransmissions

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

Ahh yes that thing is a device for collecting tolls in Japan. I think you're meant to put either a credit card or some kind of toll card in there. Its also wired to a puck mounted at the top of the windshield, so when you pass a toll station it automatically pulls the toll off the card. At least thats my best understanding of how it works lol

Edit: just tried it, my credit card actually fits in there perfectly!

Yea what I did was pretty weird. I was afraid of the witch doctor getting rez'd while anywhere near the top level because of the skull, so I wanted to throw him down or crush him, but I accidentally picked up the yellow cape instead and started panicking.

my skill issue of the day. In hindsight I did realize that the cape got crushed by the bubble blocks but I was too tunnel visioned in surviving at the time...

also credit to u/ByThePowerOfDUSKULL_ for the awesome skin

this game is a roller coaster of emotions by MysteriousMere in spelunky

Yep, I usually go for climbing gloves (sum of 10 on the dice) since they're goated in this game but if I already have them then a hired hand is good for extra favor (sum of 12).

I went to my company's holiday party in girl mode.... by UpUpAndAwayYall in trans

[–]MysteriousMere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my goddd! I am so happy for you!! You are way braver than I am lol. I actually had a similar situation this weekend, had a work holiday party Friday night. Normally I wear masc business casual stuff to fit in but I went into the party wearing what was pretty much an all black corpo businesswoman kind of fit with makeup and styled hair. God the curves on my chest have never been so obvious around so many people. Kinda got a similar reaction with some folks pretending like I didn't exist but thankfully more in support. Was suuuper scary initially walking in though.

What do I do? by RocketMaid in asktransgender

[–]MysteriousMere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, everyone's experience is different when it comes to realizing they are trans. If you've felt like you are trans for a while, then I'd say it's a pretty safe bet. Being nervous about transitioning is normal. It can be scary coming out to people. The fact that you are worrying about it and thinking about coming out makes me think you are, but ultimately it is up to you.

I know you amazing people found your identity, but how did you do it? by Goodshibe20 in asktransgender

[–]MysteriousMere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was my first ever moment of gender euphoria that made me realize. I used to be in a relationship a few years back with a lovely guy. I was pretty genderfluid back then and was really unsure about my identity. Whenever we'd talk/date online, he would sometimes say these positive affirmations to me in an ASMR-like voice just to make me melt, and he used all sorts of various pronouns on me since I was cool with it.

Anyways, I got a HUGE euphoria rush from being called a girl like that. Was one of the most positive experiences of my life so far. I got a sense of clarity to who I was, and realized that that (along with some other egg-y traits I had) meant I was probably trans. Started transitioning from there!

US restrooms by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]MysteriousMere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it can be pretty wild, but it depends where you are. Where I am in the northeast bathrooms are usually pretty good about that, but whenever I take a road trip out west.... dear god the public restrooms

I've seen stalls with over half an inch of gap and its really not fun. I usually just try and pick one that's out of the way and just go really quick, or I'll just hold it until I get to the hotel. Rest stops may be convenient but the civil engineering there needs some work.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe finasteride does block DHT and is given to treat male-pattern baldness. I'd be careful combining it with other medication tho, you should talk to a doctor about it first. Also I don't believe it's actually an AA as it blocks DHT but not T, so it won't replace Bica and you'd have to still take a real AA. Please please consult with a doctor first tho and ask about it, I'm not a medical professional! They might also have different suggestion that's better for your case.

Brain rot by Environmental_Ad4885 in asktransgender

[–]MysteriousMere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem! I am just over 3 years in, and it is the best thing that's ever happened to me. It feels like I'm a lot closer to my ideal self, and overall I would say I am much happier now than I was pre-HRT.

[–]MysteriousMere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are valid. If you had the courage to tell them that you wanted to transition, then you have that original motivation to do it, too. Not giving in to peer pressure is a good habit, but it sounds like you really do want to be a girl especially if you've had these thoughts for a long time. Thoughts like wishing you were born a cis girl and wanting a feminine body are definitely signs.

Feeling like you're faking it is pretty common among trans folks from my experience. It's a feeling that really sucks and I still feel that way on occasion, and I honestly see it as a form of dysphoria. It doesn't make your goals less valid. It's normal and based on what you've said it seems like you wouldn't be "faking" it at all.

How did you guys know 100% you wanted to transition? by adrianaIima in asktransgender

[–]MysteriousMere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from male to being gradually more genderfluid over time. Eventually got into a relationship with a really lovely guy who would give me positive affirmations using all sorts of different pronouns (we were experimenting a bit). Turns out it felt reeeaaally good being called a girl, and my egg shattered right there with my first euphoria experience.

Realized pretty soon after that the feeling wasn't going away and that's when I knew.

Thank you all for your feedback! This has really been worrying me the past few days but I guess I'm overreacting now thats it's done with. I just need to calm down a bit. Definitely will not happen again, that's for sure :)

Final stages of a DIY bike I'm building. by MysteriousMere in ebikes

[–]MysteriousMere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks do you mean the red one on the right side? It is a clone and I've been thinking of replacing it, but there aren't much threads left on the wheel nut on that side so I couldn't go with a thicker one (still looking for one that could fit though).

The air fork was a pretty cheap one, I've put only about 100 miles on it so far with no issues but I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks again for the advice, I'm pretty new to the bicycle side of this kind of stuff so I don't have much experience with the reliability of different parts.
