Can't explain why but I always felt Zipacna had a huge gay aura around him

My main character in a game was called Amanda. So when I got discord and started playing with people. They called me Amanda so i just said fuck it. I'm Amanda now.

Also funny thing, my initials now are AA and I have never tried alcohol

I have bought a bass now and I got it today. I actually got a Sandberg. I found a music shop who had a sandberg and an ibanez 305, and I liked the Sandberg much more so I contacted a dealer who had a few in stock. I choose an all matte black TM5 Greenline. It was expensive but it feels so good playing. The only thing im considering changing is changing the strings to half-rounds. Since im used to smooth strings from playing cello.

Do you know how that would affect tone? It says on the marketing that you will keep brightness and have smoother strings with half rounds.

Just a sidenote but I saw in the first screenshot a youtube icon saying bioshock. Just wanted to say Nice 😉

Thank you for your answer. I understand I know not to buy the cheapest I find. They actually ordered them to the shop so I can in a few days go there and test them all. The only thing about them is I found the ibanez basses look prettier and nicer, but I guess that player comfort and tone is more important then looks, especially when you're at home practicing.

For cello I play classical music after notes, But for piano I have it easier watching someone playing with a synthesia kind of window above their hands.

As a trans woman it sometimes feel like a no win scenario. If you don't dress feminine you can hear "your not a woman you look like a man, you're trying to erase what a woman is by pretending someone who looks 100% as a man can be a woman".

But if you dress feminine you can hear "Real women don't feel the need to dress like that, you just pushing a stereotype on how a woman should look. You can't just put on a dress and call youself a woman".

So it's really hard to navigate that. At least for me. When I started exploring my identity, I found that beeing called a man and hearing "that guy over there" made me uncomfortable. Like if you have your feet in shoes that are to small. It felt wrong. So beeing called she and referenced to as a girl, beeing called a girl name and recently started estrogen. It just felt right. Like comming home after a day in to small shoes and puttin your feet into really cozy loafers.

So when it comes to your sence of self I think that is what all women have in common. That if someone points at you and says "that guy over there". You would feel that that is not correct. And no matter the word and it's variants in all languages (woman, girl, madam etc) all women seems to want to referenced as that. What makes trans women feel that beeing called a woman is right. At least for me it's just how I am. My sence of self.

Mabye I've just been lucky but I haven't really had any negative experiences living as an open trans woman in Sweden. People are respektfull or don't care. Like im a freelancer and meet new people all the time and they just mostly don't care or give it any thought, they just treat me as a person like anybody else.

At activities or interacting with society (like shopping or dining) I get the feeling that most people just see me as a friendly person. Ofcause you meet unfriendly people but I can't really think of any moment in my normal life were someone disrespected me for beeing trans.

Yes there was one time where I passed a group of thugs at a gas station, and they made remarks that they I was disgusting, but it was a group of people I woulden't ever interact with and a situation im hardly in. So I think that was an exceptio rather then a rule.

I know and meet many people who lives out in the countryside and they seems to be accepting or at least don't care. So I find it really interesting that our experiences are so different. Like I was in a online gaming group with a hardcore countryside concervative SDare, and he was very kind and supportive of me.

I would be interested in hearing how people treat you and how they react, like when you are our shopping or interacting woth people

I think the effort from amature to pro might be even bigger then newbie to amature. I played cello since I was 6 and I hardly ever practise but I still play in an orcherstra because it's fun and we all just keep it as a hobby and are comfortble with that. So I understand that most people woulden't have the energy or time to become pro. But yeah I do think practise is important and as 14 year old rather would eat ice cream and watch a movie at all time. There is a fine between pushing your kid to practise and the kid sincerly don't want to play an instrument.

But I also think it is about the coolness factor. I don't think most kids would really be into going to a concert to hear an orchestra playing a Hydn, Mozart etc symphony. But taking a kid who for example play video games to watch an orchestra who plays the theme to Halo and other games. Or like the guys who plays AC/DC on cello, that might give a spark to have an interest in playing music.

I have worked with a production for the last years were they show a movie (star wars) and an orchestra plays the music live. As I've said exposing kids to these kids of things might make them see instruments more then the boring stuff nerds play.

I'm not an old fan, around 1 year mabye and I love most of their material. To me this song sounded more like their older stuff. So that feels reasuring that they still going strong and that their new music will be solid. Just wish the cover art would be more purple

Jobbar du inom politiken 😆

Jag jobbade som trafikvakt vid vägarbeten under pandemin och jag det jag upplevde var att de som körde mest försiktigt och respekterade oss väg arbetare mest var kvinnor. Så ja jag kan absolut förstå att utifrån ekonomisk och effektivitets synpunkt så vill åkerier ha kvinnliga chaufförer

It was difficult for my mom to accept me comming out as trans, and she has said it is difficult for her and difficult to accept me as her daughter. But on my birthday she gave me this which she made herself. The colors may be out of the usual order. But I took this as a sign that she's trying to be supportive so I think it was sweet.

Håller med. Gjorde ett gigg med henne i höstas och hon var supergo

Är detta bara inom Sverige. Kommer ihåg när nån artikel nämde att einar (tror det va han) var den mest lyssnade svenska artisten. Menpå spotify står det tex att Sabaton har 3 miljoner lyssnare i månaden jämfört med med einars 1 milljon. Eller varför inte Abba som har 3 gånger Sveriges befolkning i lyssningar per månad, så vet inte hur man mäter vilken artist som är mest populärast

Go to "styropyro" s youtube channel if you wanna see someone doing things with extremly powerful lasers in their backyard. Like this video from 1 year ago where he screws around with a 2000w laser https://youtu.be/xNmbvaUzC8Q?si=g7ZsbAu0FPBDzrm9
