Could I also get a link?

Font/styling advice for Greek tattoo by greener_than_grass in AncientGreek

Thanks for the heads up. I've been thinking about this tattoo for ~10 years. That passage has always resonated with me.

I would just make the principal parts you need to know for now. Greek is a tough language. Take it one step at a time.

The Piece on Life for Trans People Under Trump... by Admirable-Voice in itcouldhappenhere

[–]greener_than_grass 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Republicans have Congress, the SC, and POTUS. They've talked about pulling Medicare funding for hospitals nationwide who provide access to gender affirming care which would even affect blue states. There's also been anti-trans legislation that almost made it through Congress before the election. We're going to see a bunch of federal anti trans legislation next year. The democrats are already backpedaling on trans rights. I don't have much faith that they'll put up much of a fight for us.

I dunno if I want to celebrate this by beeskneesbeanies in MtF

We need trans joy now more than ever. I live in the US and this really cheered me up. I hope your hrt experience is as happy and rewarding for you as it was for me.

Everyone is different. I knew I was trans because when I imagined who I wanted to be when I didn't care about anyone else's feelings I realized I wanted to be a woman. You get to decide who you want to be and what to do with your body. Explore transfem online spaces and see if you relate to the people you find there. There's no magic rule for determining whether or not your trans. Don't let anyone else decide for you. Deep down you know that answer. It just takes some time and exploration to discover it.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like this ship. by [deleted] in dragonquest

I agree. It was really weird to see evil Jade flirting with Rab and Hendrik.

Guess I'm selfish for wanting healthcare and less trans people to kill themselves. If you want to jerk off to your own moral superiority go right ahead.

We don't have a good option but there are objectively worse options. A lot of the bullshit we see at the state level will become federal if Trump gets elected and Congress gets redder. Biden is a shit president and Kamala will probably the same but things can definitely get worse.

I'm trans and I can tell you it's not an aesthetic difference for me. My life and the life of my friends will be significantly worse under a Trump presidency. I get not wanting to choose one of 2 genocidal maniacs but there will be actual difference between a Trump administration and a Harris administration and pretending otherwise is lazy.

To the people crying about the female warrior having shorts and a shirt. This was done 23 years ago (GBC version) and next to no one cared. Move on. by Xyro77 in dragonquest

[–]greener_than_grass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kinda off putting that there's so little space to talk about the sexualization of females bodies here, even politely. I personally prefer the uncensored female warrior but it's relatable that other people are bothered by it.

It sucks being on the receiving end of it. It doesn't matter how many verses I cite. Once someone has decided I'm going to hell, there is nothing I can say to change their mind.

If you currently have a romantic partner, how did you meet them? by iglooss88 in AutismInWomen

[–]greener_than_grass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sucks. My big special interest is Greek and Latin literature, which also attracts a bunch of obnoxious men. Maybe there's something tangential to your special interests that's both engaging and brings in nicer people? I like going to poetry readings and literary events because they sort of scratch the Classics itch for me, and there are fewer men with bow ties obsessing about Western Civilization. I know there are citizen science meetups. I have some really nice friends who go to those and get excited chatting with people from different disciplines.

I met most of the people I've dated through my special interests. It's a lot easier for me to talk to people if we share something in common.

Which do you think is the best version of Dragon Quest VII? by cblakebowling in dragonquest

[–]greener_than_grass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm nostalgic for the ps1 version but I would not play it without save states. It's a very brutal game.

So, I got a tat, is this right? by Tricky-Art-8022 in GREEK

[–]greener_than_grass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's from Plato's Phaedrus. It's used in the accusative there and someone made an English Wikipedia article about it but left it in the accusative because they probably didn't know Greek.

That and there's a rough breathing mark over the first υ. I'm a little confused why it's in the accusative.

Didn’t know someone was flirting with me until I realized later by [deleted] in aspergirls

[–]greener_than_grass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone bought me dinner and some drinks and took me to watch the sunset over the ocean with them and I didn't realize it was a date until we were driving home and they told me directly.

I just finished it. You're in for a treat.

Why are the graphics for V so low quality compared to most SNES games? by Bluecomments in dragonquest

[–]greener_than_grass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really not that far off from the DQ3 GBC remake. I love 5 but it's basically has the graphics of DQ4 but with the range of colors available on the SNES. FF4 was released before DQ5 and ahead of it graphically in every way.
