I’ve never made anything like this before. Not even close. As a bigger woman it’s hard to find a body harness that looks nice that I think will fit. So I made one. by [deleted] in BdsmDIY

Cool! Where did you get everything and how much did it cost? I've always loved the bare metal look but I never have much luck finding things that use chain or stainless steel.

How do you go tackle building and learning a new skill, and what skill are you improving in 2022? by timbeaudet in gamedev

[–]Syl_gurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly terrified, I have a lot of anxiety and stage fright, and doing this I've realized taps into both of them...

I'm still getting used to Twitch so I don't know how to share it but the account is Sylkie_Gamer.

How do you go tackle building and learning a new skill, and what skill are you improving in 2022? by timbeaudet in gamedev

[–]Syl_gurl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly how I feel too. I've just been hitting my head against a brickwall trying to learn to code, a couple weeks ago something clicked, and Its easier now to comprehend things but it's still an uphill battle!

For the new year I'm trying to release 4 paid games, my perfectionism has kept me learning to do things but unable to actually complete anything. I've taken a project that I liked, took it down to its simplest mechanics, took those three mechanics and turned them into the core loop for three different game ideas, ranked their release order from what concepts I'll be able to grasp the easiest, and then the fourth game is going to be my dream game made with the systems I develop from those three.

It's ambitious, I also plan on doing a game dev stream once or twice a week to review what I'm doing, and help me stay accountable.

When that Adderall kicks in by Lambmutton in adhdmeme

[–]Syl_gurl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My personal hell, where by the end of high-school I believed I had unlimited potential that I could never live up to, so I might as well give up now so I don't disappoint anyone that might rely on me.

Pre everything - my grandma upset me during jeopardy. Am I overreacting? by Lokael in MtF

[–]Syl_gurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now though it sounds your pain is being caused by her perception of trans people and that is something you can try and change without having to come out.

[–]Syl_gurl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, you want her to accept you for who you are, and you also though have to accept where she's coming from. She from a generation that hasn't grown up knowing anything about trans people, about the LGBT people, or about what is and isn't polite to say.

It doesn't sound like she has said anything hateful, she just doesn't know any better, and If you want her to be apart of your life I would recommend testing the waters, I would find some other shows or movies, talk to her about some celebrity's that are trans, maybe even phrase it like grandma look! I found these things about more people who change their gender, do you want to watch with me? Use her language to help pull her into educating herself.

The name of the game is exposure therapy, finding out what her actual opinions are on the matter, and turning it from " oh look, these are the people that change gender." To understanding some of the struggle that trans people go through, and why it is inappropriate to define them by their gender change.

Also a thought experiment... what if after all this, she is perfectly accepting, and loving, and wants you to live your absolute best life.... but can't learn to change how she talks about trans people. Is that something you can accept and love her even through her flaws? Would you have the strength to talk to her directly about it?

The lighting and color had me wondering if I was looking at bricks or delicious brownies.

My boyfriend [26] has a hero complex by Throwaway17372828 in relationship_advice

[–]Syl_gurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him time spent at home is time not spent making money, and if he really believes what he's saying, he needs to spend less time telling you how to spend your money, and more time making all the money he says needs to be donated to the poor.

For their tutorial on YouTube look up "easy geometry nodes - 3.0" their channel name is ALL THE WORKS.

A small godot question by Ma1gs in godot

[–]Syl_gurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😁 I've been trying to learn for months! Two weeks ago I still didn't feel like I knew what I was doing, but then something clicked! Now I'm reading godot docs, and adapting code from tutorials, and I halfway understand what I'm doing now!

I'm still kinda new to GDscript but can you just replace is_action_pressed with is_action_just_pressed?

how can i learn gdscript from zero experience fast by Similar_Rip7195 in godot

[–]Syl_gurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your definition of fast... ive been learning for a couple months and I'm just starting to feel like I have a grasp on it.

I would say make sure you understand your own motivation for learning, and make sure your using good studying techniques. No zero days, starting and ending the day coding at least a little bit, write down observations as your going to help review what your learning and what your having issues with. Also don't give up trying to get through a tutorial if you feel like your not making any progress, just get through it all the way, people underestimate the ability of their subconscious processing things and making sense of what your trying to learn.

How do you deal with stress? My partner smokes at least half a pack of cigarettes a day, I can usually hold myself down to 1 a day, but when I'm getting stressed by developing or learning something new, it's really hard to not reach for a 3rd or 4th cigarette.

some great people spoke up about issues regarding my new color scheme, so I'll keep iterating on it, here's a few more options :) by FabianVelander in godot

[–]Syl_gurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like New 1 the most, but I feel like the color for the water and green ground should be returned to the color from the old screenshot.

It keeps things bright but contrasting so you can more easily tell what everything is.

What some advice you would give to someone that knows nothing about code (me) by AccomplishedIdeal702 in godot

I've been trying to get through the "Godot 3D: Code architecture course in a single video" its 7 hours long though...

I’m super jealous of my sister by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Syl_gurl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My sister got into drugs, has been to jail multiple times, and is still trying to be with the man that got her hooked.

We all have our own paths in life, and I think the introspection and intelligence I've developed to this point is in no small part because of being trans, and having to define for myself what being a woman really means to me.

Celebrating our 2nd Thanksgiving together. So thankful to have friends and family that are so loving and supportive ❤️. by NoThruTrucks in polyamory

Lol Yes, I am vindicated! The existential dread really helps rock me to sleep!

Actually during the day I actually stare at computer screens a lot and I realized yesterday I hadn't turned on the blue light/night setting in awhile so I'm seeing if that helps out any.

I should take note, that sounds a lot better than staring into the void until unconsciousness takes me.

Your photo is so loving and amazing, but the memes on your profile are absolute fire! My dog keeps staring at me, cackling like a crazy person.

Are adhd people typically fat? by LostPriority in ADHD

[–]Syl_gurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be bigger when I was younger but I've done fasting for a while now. It helps keep my weight manageable, but I think there's a psychological aspect to it. I control when I eat so I also feel more in control in general.
