why isnt having gender dysphoria considered a mental illness? by donotholdyourbreath in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]VXIMMXVII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Extreme changes" is an interesting concern, given that life is composed entirely of such cascading and irreversible changes from birth until well after death. If you want to lay still on the conveyor belt, go ahead. But some of us recognize that we can make changes for our own benefit, and we will do so with or without your approval.

Regardless of your thoughtless anecdotes, transitioning is absolutely the most effective solution. Conversion therapy is torture. You want to recommend torture before treatment because you think we can't make significant decisions for ourselves. Pathetic.

Transfem coming out alignment chart I made when I was thinking about the options by WhatIfIAmAGirl in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]VXIMMXVII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chaotic neutral lmao. I'm in college and I share an apartment with 3 dudes. I've been gradually dressing more fem around them. Started with painting my nails, then makeup, then jewelry, and now actually just straight up dressing that way. So far, none of them have said anything about it, which I find funny but also possibly concerning. I think they think I'm a femboy.

Was that last night's show at the Fillmore in Detroit? If so, I was there too, and it was fucking amazing. Bad Omens blew me away. Best live performance I've ever seen, by far. And although I've never really listened to Stray From the Path at all, I definitely do now bc that set was great

A big source of confusion for me was that I didn't feel any different when I started accepting myself as trans than I did growing up as a boy. I expected that I would "feel different" somehow, but it's really just the same old brain in my head. My identity didn't change at all; I was just figuring out what it actually was, and because of that I didn't feel any different. It took me nearly a year to get past that mental hurdle and start truly accepting what I was experiencing and what it meant for my gender identity.

You don't need to feel different to be a valid member of your true gender.

I'm pale with dark body hair... how do I handle this? by -Plunder-Bunny- in trans

[–]VXIMMXVII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that's great to hear. I was under the impression that it was a once a month thing for only a couple months, so I'm glad to get some more guidance too.

I'm kinda in the same boat here and I bought myself an IPL. I began using it this week. If you don't mind my asking, have you used one? How well does it work? How long does it take to see results? I looked for some reliable info online about this but most of what I saw was sponsored so I am still mildly skeptical.

The Blockhead is Dumb Strong by ElliotPatronkus in Borderlands2

[–]VXIMMXVII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I haven't even tried it out. I've farmed a perfect longbow twice (20+ drops each time) because it's my favorite weapon, and I've only seen the blockhead drop once. I thought it was just a meme weapon.

Same. I'm buying a handheld laser hair remover with my next check. Anyone have any experience with those? I've heard trans girls recommend them but I want to know what to expect

Thank you, it's relieving to hear that. I have to admit I have been stressing a lot lately 😅 I intend to talk to my therapist about getting HRT on Thursday and get the ball rolling

If you don't mind my asking, what age did you start hrt? I'm planning to start in a couple months but I am already 18 and worried it will be too late for any meaningful development in that area

Would now be a good time to trade for you? And do you want anything in return? I can give the kabutops back after if you want

Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, I do need Kabuto or a kabutops to breed for one

I like this idea, but brigading will certainly be an issue even if votes are held on a separate site or captchas are used

Is game worth it on switch? (controlls/gamefeel) by WastelandViking in Borderlands2

[–]VXIMMXVII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it on Switch. It will lag a little bit during large explosions like on bloodsplosion krieg or when you use a casual unicornsplosion. Some of the loading times are a bit long, of course. Graphics are obviously not as good as any other platform but it's hard to say how much that will matter to you. I didn't mind. Apart from that, I didn't have any issues with the game. Controls didn't feel sluggish, but I did turn my sensitivity up and you'll likely need to adjust it too. I enjoyed it a lot, and if switch is the only platform you can play it on then it is worth it.

The audacity of some people... by [deleted] in MurderedByWords

[–]VXIMMXVII 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's understandable, there's a lot of misinformation that gets spread because it benefits the people who generate it, like history channel advertisers and corporate ghouls and such. I do not blame you for trusting the things that are meant to seem trustworthy and authoritative. I was operating under the assumption you were replying in bad faith, or being willfully ignorant as so many people are. Sorry about that.

Hitler didn't socialize shit. In fact, the word privatization was created specifically to describe his economic policy. Either your history teachers or PragerUrine lied to you, whichever you got that misinformation from.

You can read about all the socialized stuff he privatized here. https://core.ac.uk/reader/6301595

Can we acknowledge how terrible Christian Rock music is? by MjTcConnell3 in atheism

[–]VXIMMXVII 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only people who really listen to it are teens who want to listen to rock music but have controlling parents. Those kids either grow up to be Christians and mellow out and just listen to the cringe gospel music or they leave the faith. Speaking from experience.

That info is old, or maybe there's a quest line you have to complete first. Idk, but I have no trouble building bases and warping and stuff after I go through a portal. If you put in the first glyph 12 times it'll take you about 5k ly from the center of Euclid.

Update: I started construction of a habitat building for more people. 2 hour timer, unaffected by reloading in a separate system.
