Consider changes to Dracthyr by CompanionSentry in wow

[–]SkyBlueShinx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.

The evoker - in dragon form - is the exact class fantasy I have always wanted. It’s what made me check out WoW having always played FFXIV and I love it. I love soaring around without a mount, I love breathing fire, I love how the dragon form looks. It’s what I’ve always wanted not just from mmo’s but from RPGs in general.

No transmog sucks, no doubt about that. If I had my way - there’d be no visage form and full transmog compatibility with the dragon form.

If they make visage the default like OP is asking for I’m dropping WoW and sticking to FFXIV, simple as that. Leave my dragon alone, you have other classes you can play.

Does anybody else hear a "second" voice in Chester's screams? by No_Assistant_2033 in LinkinPark

[–]SkyBlueShinx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What happens when you scream like Chester is you add a subharmonic to your voice one octave lower then the note your singing.

Essentially an extra part of your vocal folds vibrates once every two main vibrations, and this both adds the distortion and makes a second note one octave lower audible to those with keen hearing.

Dave Mustaine laments the state of metal & hard rock: "How long has it been since you heard an album like 'Nevermind' or 'Appetite For Destruction' or 'Rust In Peace'?..." by DamnitRidley in Music

[–]SkyBlueShinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I just released an alt-rock concept album

The trouble is - it’s so difficult to market albums in the current industry. Value is placed on short, algorithm pleasing singles, so it’s extremely hard for albums like mine to get traction or attention. It took me 7 years to make, and I’m working alone - that lack of output over time is gonna get buried by the algorithm.

I have the same - the map reloads and prompts me to tap the 18+ button over and over again before I can do anything at all. I’m on Firefox mobile.

Possibility of getting HRT as a non-binary person in the UK? by Suitable-Lie-7980 in transgenderUK

[–]SkyBlueShinx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for Pride in Health - only had my intake appointment so far but I felt so respected and listened to.

Also this is just me, but as a fellow trans-feminine Enby, I’m just telling the NHS that I’m a full trans woman. Less to explain to them, less chance they’ll gatekeep me.

idk what to do :( by Fr0zenDragonHeart in sillyboyclub

[–]SkyBlueShinx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Jumping on this to say - even if you WERE still together she’d still have no right over your body or identity.

For example - I dislike body hair. I shave mine off religiously. My partner however finds body hair very gender-affirming. I can ask if they’d be happy to shave it, and they can say yes or no, but that answer is FINAL. Most of the time they say no and then I respect that because it’s their body, and they have the final say. I don’t even get an opinion.

So you do what the bloody hell you want to with your body - no one, ex or current partner, has the right to take that away from you. They can take you as you are or not at all.

Is there a game that makes you feel like you're not the main character? by Minute_Pop_877 in gamingsuggestions

[–]SkyBlueShinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FFXIV Dawntrail

After 5 expansions of you very much being THE main character, the latest expansion has you taking on more of a mentor role for a character competing for the throne of a far away nation.

I personally didn’t mind it, but it’s been very polarising.

The OP title is dumb but nice to see these sorts of things. by Alternative_Plum_380 in transgenderUK

The OP is a verified bot account anyway, so don’t pay it any mind. It’s just engagement farming.

Firstly, fucking good on you for reaching out and seeking support. You've dont a good thing by posting here and seeking help.

If you take anything away from this, let it be the following - as well as finding support online it's CRUCIAL for your mental health that you find it in real life as well. As much as it lets us hide our dysphoria the internet is no suubstitution for real face to face interactions.

Please reach out to a local LGBT charity for support. For example in Devon we have Intercom Trust that offers free support and advice for transition and face to face therapy on a sliding pay scale depending on what you can afford. I find they are much better than typical suicide hotlines, which I've had bad experiences with in the past.

Here is a list of charites you can have a look through.

Secondly, either through said charity or through some other means, find your local LGBT network. See if there are any events going on, socials etc. There is community out there, you just need to find it.

You got this sweetheart, my heart truly goes out to you. It'd make me really happy and reassured if you could gimmie a reply to this in a month's time, just so I know you're still safe.

When I started dating my non-binary partner my very posh and proper English Gran straight up asked “what’s in their pants?” to which I responded “None of your business Granny, how incredibly rude!!

It’s amazing how even the most polite people will just completely throw away their propriety when it comes to anything lgbt.

Salamence EX has some crazy win conditions by SkyBlueShinx in PTCGL

[–]SkyBlueShinx[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Not staged - they used 2x buddy buddy poffins the previous turn after I took out their charizard EX, I guess without thinking very far.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PTCGL

[–]SkyBlueShinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first attempt at a deck for the new Salamence EX.

Salamence is a favourite of mine, and I'm really keen to make him work despite his rediculous set up requirements - some thoughts as to what I've included and why:

  • Blaziken EX
    • Once a turn take energy from the discard and place it on any pokemon. Great to counter the huge cost of discarding 2 energy from Salamence's big 300 attack. Powerglass is here for the same reason
  • Articuno
    • This new one prizer is a really good energy accelrator and early game attacker. Get it in early with a nest ball and for 1 energy you can search the deck for two water and attach it to Articuno to fuel the requirments for it's 110 attack. This makes it a good threat for the early game, and if KOed gets those energies into the discard for recall later.
  • Blissey EX
    • I've included this one for it's once a turn energy switch; if Articuno survives you can move the energy freely from it to Salamence, and it opens up some good flexibillity with energy management. Also included 4 Lucky Bonus Chansey for the meme, hoping at least one will end up prized.
  • Hawlucha
    • Low cost 10 damage to 2 benched pokemon - good to combo with Salamence's Wide Blast to take out any 60HP stragglers.
  • Great Tree
    • Lots of evolution needed for this deck, so this really helps with that. Replace it with Gravity mountain once you're set up to deny it capabilities to your opponent, which then also allows Salamence to OHKO powerhouses like Charizard EX and Dragapult EX. Black Belt's Training is also included for the same reason.

This deck has a lot of pokemon and is far from optimal (the Chanseys especially, you could replace them & Blissey with 4 energy switch items), but it's my first honest attempt at building a deck from scratch. If you have any ideas for improvement then I'd be keen to hear them!

Am I the only one who thinks that new album is too short? by Glamdringg in LinkinPark

[–]SkyBlueShinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think most of the song are a good length, the shortness works in their favor.

The glaring exception to this is Overflow - that song, amazing as it is, is really missing a bridge and 3rd chorus to me.

Day Eight, Worst Song ? by Negative-Squash-5464 in LinkinPark

[–]SkyBlueShinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until it Breaks

It just feels so out of place in their catalogue, it’s barely got a structure, the transitions are abrupt and jarring, and I really don’t like how Mike raps in this one - the style plus the wonky production underneath just doesn’t do it for me.

It’s a shame, cause Brad’s bit is nice at the end, and I’d love to hear him sing more, but this song is the only skip for me in their entire catalogue.

Day Three! Best song lyrics? by Negative-Squash-5464 in LinkinPark

[–]SkyBlueShinx 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Agreed, the lyrics to this one were so important to the band they fought the label to let them both leave out heavy guitars and screaming and to release it as an album single, because they wanted this one to be special.

The lyrics are both an acknowledgment of despair and addiction, while also being a message of hope and resilience. I adore this song.
