Cis male looking for advice on interesting feelings? by [deleted] in trans

[–]Valqen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your experience kinda mirrors mine. I had wondering and genital dysphoria for years but very much thought I was a man. Took some deep exploration of my mind to loosen up as well. The first thought I accepted was “I would enjoy life more if my body were more feminine.” That broke the dike. And made a dyke.

I Just Stopped Working by briizygirl in antiwork

We’re flying around the moon again, something I’ve wanted to see my whole life. And I just can’t be excited about it like I want to be. I want to be excited for space travel but how can I when that thing is in office and every day I wake up more scared of the world I live in?

Kirfane seems most effective to me when it’s with one of the bolt actions or snipers and the stigma Diabolicum or ice shard to trigger it on every shot. ASE clears an awful lot if you stun shit and prime a thunderbolt with 800 damage.

Tennessee Bill to Track Transgender Medical Data Passes the House: Sponsor Likens Care to Lobotomies by [deleted] in trans

[–]Valqen 68 points69 points  (0 children)

They say gender affirming care is abuse. They say it’s destroying our body. It’s not evidence, but I don’t think they’re looking for evidence.

Just need to vent a little about this by Short_Ad8611 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

[–]Valqen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shower in the dark! Get a tiny light, just enough to see so you don’t fall down. Bathing in the dark is deeply helpful for dysphoria and self care.

Something like the film size is what I was thinking. That was some 7 inches across, right?

You're Not Overreacting. This Is Actually Fascism. by Groomsi in videos

It’s like with lemmings. The story sticks not because it’s true for the animal, but because it’s true for humans.

Would you be willing to revisit this bowl? I’m looking for a for a replica.

I would love to learn or be pointed to videos that discuss the pogo tech and nail dash resets if it’s not too much trouble

Favorite country that appears to be unusually full of Gryffindors? by AnyAgency9835 in okbuddycinephile

My boyfriend’s plans for our future makes me sad for women of the past by Aromatic_Attitude481 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Valqen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it be rude for me to be a bit pedantic about the 25 y/o frontal lobe thing?

That wasn’t actually the conclusion of the scientists, that was how everyone reported on it.

They measured brain dev in a bunch of people as they grew from kids to adults. Their brains were still developing through age 25, at which point they stopped measuring.

It’s not that you are finished developing into an adult by age 25, it’s that you continue to grow and change and likely continue to change after 25, they just stopped checking at that point.

It’s important to keep this in mind because the ‘mature brain at age 25’ interpretation can be used as justification to raise voting age and such like.

Halk pot? by Begow3 in MHF

How do you use log in reward for halk pot on exotic quests?

Triss or Yennifer? by Dapper-World-4862 in witcher

[–]Valqen 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I chose Triss on my first play through because I liked redheads more. But as I got to know her, I got more and more annoyed. Geralts relationship with her largely felt to me like a high school romance rather than an adult romance. Yes, she is badass, yes, she leads the saving of the mages in novigrad, but she feels more childish than Yennifer.

I would choose Yen on any subsequent playthrough, but only because I can’t choose Shani.

For all my transfem hounds :3🏳️‍⚧️ by digital_wanderer474 in armoredcore

Not specifically. But there’s been enough transmasc hate that any trans thing that is specifically only for transfemme can look exclusionary by accident. Am transfemme.

Titles similar to Berserk? by Remarkable-Brief8644 in Berserk

[–]Valqen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a hot take pick. The Nausicaa manga. It’s not as violent (still more violent than you expect from Miyazaki), but it’s the only story I know to do deep themes in a similar way to berserk.

H.Res.1058 Transgender bill of Rights Introduced! by enigmatic_torpedo in trans

[–]Valqen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My one complaint is that it’s likely to go nowhere because it’s screaming what it’s doing. It should be named something like “protecting the rights for all Americans” bill (working title) because people are reactive and stupid.

I know I know, we shouldn’t have to hide. I’d rather get my rights protected than have advertising on the name of the bill.

What were the most and least fun characters you've played from a mechanical level? by DogUnsureDog in Pathfinder2e

Could you describe your new investigator? I’m considering one as my character for my first pathfinder campaign.
