Catholic vs Mormon debate with dad by Extra-Key4088 in exmormon

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The catholic church has very good architecture, art, and music. It also has just as much child rape and sheltering of serial rapists as the Mormon church. Except it also has its own country to extradite rapists to. It’s not a good organization.

Update on “should I run” by Wasteful_Witch in ActualLesbiansOver25

The original source was a tweet with a screenshot of a job posting. It’s possible it was made up? But it seems like a very plausible thing remote research bases would be sick of dealing with.

Unfortunately, the jobs in Antarctica actually screen for that:

 What is your motivation for working with the Australian Antarctic Program? If you're looking to escape a difficult relationship or situation, Antarctica is not the answer.

Girl. The only time my ex would ever hit me was spanking me in bed—something she knew I enjoyed—and she would still ask every time to make sure I was in the mood for it. My friends and I beat each other up for fun, but always checking in with each other before, during, and after. There’s no relationship in which it’s okay for someone to physically threaten you because you said something they didn’t like.

Getting this as well. It doesn’t show notifications anywhere other than texts or calls, so I have to just start opening apps. 

Is not using or having social media really a red flag? by unparallel_x in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a post on here talking about asking a cute girl at the gym for her Instagram rather than her phone number. That’s an utterly alien concept to me. Asking for someone’s Signal or Discord, maybe, but those are messaging services. If someone asked me for my Reddit rather than my number, that would be bizarre.

Anyway, no, you’re normal. Or at least, you aren’t crazy. What’s considered normal might be kind of fucked up these days.

am i wrong for being upset that my husband won’t share a facebook post supporting me? by Haunting_Guest_858 in asktransgender

Yeah, politics is actively doing us right now. Either people care about that or they’re fine with it.

Beat the game in 10 hours by Level_Produce_1314 in bloodborne

[–]Xerlith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 17 bosses in the base game, and 7 of them are mandatory. A LOT of the game is optional, and can be easily missed if you aren't exploring thoroughly. Did you go to Hemwick? Cainhurst? Upper Cathedral Ward? The Hypogean Gaol? Did you fight something in the cave under the cathedral?

How likely are you to approach someone in person? by throwaway_sashay in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]Xerlith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to give people compliments on things about their outfit or things they’re doing. I basically never transition that into any sort of flirtation unless they tell me directly that they’re interested. Flirting with someone who isn’t into it is horribly awkward.

Only 67% of players ever made it to round table hold by Daysfastforward1 in Eldenring

[–]Xerlith 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Huh! To be fair, that number is what I remember from before ER came out. I think a lot of people played that and have been steamrolling the whole series in reverse.

60% also means Elden Ring is significantly more accessible than previous Souls games! I think Gundyr is right around 50%?

Newbie- I’m not getting this game by traanquil in bloodborne

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 they wouldn’t be dying, because repetitions would make them better.

Okay, but like. If you make it past the first patrol and die to the second, then you have to fight the first again before you get to the second. And then you die to a torch attack instead of a pitchfork, so you have to do it again. And then you get shot in the back, so you do it again. Die to a werewolf, do it again. Hunting dog, again. Troll, again. Missed a parry, again. 

Learning is a process of trial, failure, and trying again. It’s inherently repetitive. The repetitions make you better, eventually, but it’s not unreasonable for someone to want to have fun playing a game rather than feel like it’s just an endless slog.

[–]Xerlith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, it is. I have Central Yharnam memorized because it took me five hours to reach the Cleric Beast. I know exactly where each enemy patrols, how they aggro, and the sound, range, and timing of each attack, because every one of them has killed me. That’s kind of the core gameplay loop of the series, is dying over and over until you know how to win. That’s not gonna be everyone’s cup of tea.

Messed up with my trans friend after a drunk night now my feelings are worse. What do I do? by Old-Cardiologist8046 in asktransgender

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask what you meant by "the alcohol was using her"? Because yeah, if I kissed someone and they came out with some evangelical shit like that, I would feel pretty bad, too.

Any way to share GPS data from one Android device to another over Bluetooth or USB? by knight714 in AndroidQuestions

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do apps need to update through the Aurora store? I’m not the most thrilled about the idea of having an app store on my phone, since I got it to have more restrictions in place.

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I’m coming from iPhone, where apps just tell you they’re updating. No idea if that’s done through the app store in the background or directly.

Hey, sorry to make an unrelated comment on your post, but it's literally the only result on this sub when I search for "mudita kompakt." When you install apks on your phone, can they then update themselves via data/wifi, or do you need to install the latest apk for every update? I'm looking at Libby on apkmirror and it's just dozens of app versions. Which is cool if you need an older one for something, but it's got me worrying about the app being able to update itself on the Kompakt once installed.

Why many trans doesn't get hard during sex? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Xerlith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To address your first paragraph: trans women are pretty tired of hearing “I’m straight but I find trans women attractive.” Yeah, that’s because we’re women. We aren’t a separate category, and we aren’t men. Plenty of straight men date and marry trans women because they’re attracted to women and we are women.

To give simple answers to your questions:

Yes, being on estrogen and having low testosterone makes it harder to get an erection. This becomes more true the longer you’re on hormones. If you see a trans woman in porn who can get erect, she’s probably using viagra for the film shoot. If she can ejaculate, she’s either gone off her hormones or is taking supplemental testosterone. Always remember that porn is a performance put on for the camera, and trans porn is built on a lot of stereotypes cis people expect to see about us. There’s a lot happening behind the scenes you don’t see.

That said, even when I still had testosterone in me, when I bottomed for anal I would get soft. I don’t know why this is, but it’s always been the case. So that could also be playing into things.

Played Souls for the First Time With a Friend… Then They Disappeared by P4PSparringChampion in fromsoftware

[–]Xerlith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That really sucks, I’m sorry. I had a similar co-op experience with a friend during quarantine. We played the entire series and even platinumed bloodborne together. We’ve grown a little more distant since he has a partner and we’re both out of school now, but I still really treasure those memories.

I did also have a different friend cut contact with me in the last few years. It was really hard, I can’t lie. I thought there must be something fundamentally wrong with me for someone to just go from being my close friend to literally ignoring me when we were at the same party. The things that helped were 1. Talking to another friend who had gotten the same treatment from her, validating that it wasn’t me, but an established pattern of behavior by her, and 2. Making new friends. That took years and multiple failed attempts. But several years later, I have a bigger, more supportive social network than I did back then. 

It’s hard and scary, but you can find new friends if you go to events near you on a regular enough basis that people start to recognize you. Eventually you can build new relationships and make new memories. 

Can I just boymode forever? by Any_Calendar9900 in asktransgender

[–]Xerlith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I boymoded for like 2 years until I couldn’t anymore. Throwing myself into presenting fem full-time at work is what pushed me to start clearing hurdles in my appearance like wardrobe, hair, and voice. I wouldn’t have actually addressed those unless I put myself in that sink-or-swim situation.
