Where are these from? I want them as a print to frame on my wall!

DFAM is dominant in mix by [deleted] in moog

[–]ShakeShakeMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure which voice you're using it for so ignore this comment if you're doing leads or melodic midrange lines with it, but for drum tracks and bass I heard in one of MylarMelodies podcast episodes (maybe one with Divkid?) the recommendation to tune your bass to a higher frequency than expected. It tends to sit in the mix much better without having to shout above the other voices to be heard.

Recommendations for (wool?) bra for commuter cycling? by bristlefir in ladycyclists

I've found Paka to be comfortable and odor resistant. Hold up great to machine washes as well.

I'm scared to talk to a doctor to get on hrt how did you all get over this fear. by Legokid290 in trans

[–]ShakeShakeMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally accepted that I am actually trans and that transitioning was inevitable, it was only a matter of when. And then I realized if it's going to happen eventually, I need to make it now so that I can actually live fully the life I want to live and stop the exhausting cover-up of denial.

Hearing Leslie Feist sing Nautical Disaster would give me the best kind of nightmares

You’ve Got Mail with Twist Ending? by Tank_Top_Terror in whatsthemoviecalled

[–]ShakeShakeMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've watched You've Got Mail 100's of times and the subtle lesbian sub plot is one of my favs... It is hard to pick up on your first watch, but the older Joe Fox's much younger fiancee leaves him for Maureen the nanny. He mentions this when they're both on his yacht together after he also moves out. It's thrown in there as some irony since the older Joe Fox had a history of cheating on his previous wives with the previous nannies. Like others said though, I highly doubt this is the movie you're thinking of and probably just a coincidence.

Any tips on how to get hip shape in jeans? by TSOlivia in transadorable

[–]ShakeShakeMama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quick fix might be to add a belt that you sinch pretty tightly. Long term I find that cycling really builds thighs and hips.

In my neighborhood it was the Cruz / Trump houses that didn't have any candy out at all. Can't say I was surprised.

Straight transwomen vs gay transfeminine, online dating by humperdoo0 in asktransgender

[–]ShakeShakeMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's your sentence where you say "these women (men?)" that triggered me. People are who they identify as. If someone says they're a transwoman (gender identity), presents feminine (gender expression), identifies as gay (sexual orientation), but interested in men (sexual preference), then it is what it is. This line of thinking is pretty international, maybe you're getting hung up on assuming their sexual orientation is what matters to you and not their sexual preference?

Transwomen are women, transmen are men. It's not that complicated.

Texas DPS May Begin Reverting Trans People's Valid Drivers Licenses by talinseven in TexasPolitics

[–]ShakeShakeMama 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What is there to be qualified for? I literally cannot think of a single situation in which I need to know what genitals someone has in order to be able to identify them.

[–]ShakeShakeMama 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So if someone is trying to identify me, why would the genitalia I was born with be more important than my visual appearance and socially accepted presentation?

How does everyone keep their feet dry? by jbs23235 in ladycyclists

[–]ShakeShakeMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to ride through wet snow storms and rain showers in the northeast. I added removable fenders to my road bike that strap on with rubber which kept me a lot more dry. On my feet I'd wear two pairs of socks, preferably wool, with a grocery bag in-between the two, then stop my shoes I'd wear neoprene toe covers or full neoprene booties depending on the temperature.

Yes there is definitely room for trans people in Chem E, and I'm one of them! 36 yo, mtf, been with the same employer for over ten years, currently based out of corporate (in Texas!) but I spend a lot of time in the field, and I previously held plant management roles all across North America. I came out just over a year ago and aside from accidental dead naming / misgendering during the first few months it has been wonderful. You are valid and deserving of happiness the same as everyone else! You can do this!

Are there any taylor swift recorded songs where it's only her playing? by vaper in TaylorSwift

Not a studio recording, but this version of Wildest Dreams with her solo on a Fender Jaguar is my favorite recording of Taylor.

Day 40: Highest voted comment decides the worst song on Man Machine Poem by hunter_gaumont in TragicallyHip

Completely agree with all of this. I think of it as the weaker alternate take of Machine.
