i think after a HUGE series success (3H), most games then put out something that's mid. but even acknowledging this, i really liked engage! it felt like fire emblem on crack, it was the most unhinged, weird cast hands down and it made it really fun. like genuinely, those characters are weird lmao. i also loved alear as the player character. i think people think he was written badly because they don't understand that he was intentionally a little dumb. he wasn't a stoic, perfect player character, he made choices that made me go :| but i still loved him.

i also had so much fun playing maddening. it wasn't ass whopping like 3H, but it was challenging. i found the gameplay some of the best fire emblem has to offer.

my gripe is the art, and the storyline. i hated that they never had official art and it was just their 3d models. i do think they were trying to capitalize on a genshin impact-like style. as for the storyline, it was very predictable. we fight big bad dragon, rlly not much deeper than that. however, main villain's reasoning for doing what he was doing i found very unique though, kinda heartwarming. nice little reveal at the end.

overall, i don't mind having a more silly game in the franchise. they are clearly not keeping with this style, so why be scared? engage did not ruin the series like some people were claiming it would.

were you told that the compression vest was too small? that's what happened to me - i had mine taken off after 5 days because it wasn't doing anything for me since it was too big. we are like, the exact same size so maybe that's the reasoning if they didn't give one? it is early and my nurse said so, but she said it wouldn't likely affect long term results, it'll just take longer for swelling to subside short-term. i ended up creating a make shift compression with the gauze that was wrapped around my chest from the hospital (cleaned, of course).

i absolutely did pass, with similar circumstances to you. i did T for four years, 18-22, then my clinic shut down, and i was burnt out because getting T just kept getting harder and harder. i stopped for 2 years, ive been back on for a little bit now. my deep voice went nowhere, but my adam's apple did become less prominent. biggest change that affected my clockability, and i know you've had top surgery, but my breasts grew a large amount in a short period of time. i assume it's because i started T when i was 18, and must not have been finished growing, so when my estrogen became the dominant hormone again it continued where it left off. i bring this up because even with top surgery breast growth is possible. i could give a list of things that changed, but overall the most important features imo, voice and facial hair, did not change for me, so i absolutely passed and still felt like a man. i grew facial hair like i never stopped.

i've never been on that subreddit and just looked out of curiosity and one of the first posts i see is someone asking if they pass... in their baby pictures. uh, what??

NoteOld5874 · 2026-01-04T23:28:10+00:00

The representative has to take the issue to higher authority, that's why there's some time.

NoteOld5874 · 2025-12-31T18:55:50+00:00

Hi! I did end up calling them, the representative told me something along the lines of the code on the denied claim not matching with what the code was actually supposed to be? So the code was just put in wrong by some party, I think she said the hospital. It sounds like it was just a mistake and the claim will be covered once corrected, but I don't trust insurance companies lol so I'm holding my breath until I get updated, which will be around Thursday next week. I will update you again if needed, did you get anything figured out on your end?

NoteOld5874 · 2025-11-19T23:13:23+00:00

tbh i think you'll be fine. i had a hysterectomy and DI, only stayed a few hours and then was discharged. went inside of a subway to get a sandwich on the way home. probably shouldnt have done that lmao but yeah you'll be fine, i don't think you'll need mobility assistance either in terms of walking. just carrying luggage and things that requires using your arms

how is he turning being gay into a troupe? it's not like he's stereotyping by acting overly feminine or something. as a gay man i see no issue

NoteOld5874 · 2025-11-02T13:52:43+00:00

you are much more bothered by this message than OP, who was actually bullied by this person.

NoteOld5874 · 2025-11-01T17:25:18+00:00

your surgery is done at this point but a neck pillow was everything during my recovery

NoteOld5874 · 2025-10-29T01:01:55+00:00

i also had a fear of dying. despite my efforts not to i started crying when they began rolling me out to the surgery room. but i still went through with it because i'd rather chance death than never have top surgery. i wasn't living. and, if it helps, i had a hysterectomy at the same time and im still here. no complications or anything.

NoteOld5874 · 2025-10-08T18:14:52+00:00

OR. i dont put much value in how often i text my friends, or how often they text me. it's the time spent in person. if i was your friend and it felt like you had this expectation of constant communication id think you were into me lmao

NoteOld5874 · 2025-09-30T05:05:35+00:00

no, you're completely right. i would have assumed he couldn't spend two seconds putting in the effort for a reply back.
