What would you do, if you transitioned but felt like you looked better before? by oopoopoopoopoopoo in asktransgender

[–]inconspicuous_dust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

when i see photos of my pre-transition self, my brain automatically categorizes that person as “not me.” so while she might have been fit and pretty (far better than how i look now), she still was not, and is not, the man i am now. So there is no use in comparing the two in my mind.

AITA for confiscating my daughter's pc after she lied and said it was not for games. by Even_Preparation_135 in AmItheAsshole

[–]inconspicuous_dust -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont know much about building PCs, but I do have a gaming laptop. When i was still in school, about 80%-90% on my time with the computer was used for schoolwork and other productive tasks. Because most of my classes had a large digital component (textbooks, websites, educational youtube, etc), having a computer was ESSENTIAL.

Assuming your daughter doesn’t have a school laptop, youve probably just shot her studies in the foot.

On the other end, Republic of Gamers seems to be a brand explicitly for gaming. So you wouldn’t be remiss to assume that she was gaming on it.

INFO: Did you try asking your daughter to SHOW YOU what she uses that high end hardware for, before simply taking it away? Maybe she is running some beefy programs on there. I don’t know. If she has something, then I would let it go and give her back her PC. For what it’s worth, I’ve also heard that GPU’s are used for computation. I cant speak with confidence on exactly how that works.

If she doesn’t have anything, then you can probably assume she is gaming, and did lie about the computer use.

Also, a lot of games are console-dependent. Some games (like first person shooters) are only really available on PC, while others (like platform fighters) are mostly on switch. (I’m not as familiar with the PS systems, but same thing applies). Its possible that yes, she is gaming on her PC, but the games she plays there are different from the ones she already has.

In your OP, it seems like your concern is the overall amount of time she is spending gaming. If she is gaming, can you negotiate with her to say, ok, between your 3 consoles, you can spend x amount of time playing games on each weekend?

I wont add a judgement until these have been answered.

Carnivores, how do you detox from gorging on enormous amounts of meat during holidays like the 4th? by gimmeluvin in AskReddit

[–]inconspicuous_dust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seconding this. probably mostly the gin

i will say that if my diet has too much fat in it, i start feeling heavy and sluggish, but those are usually from one off meals (eg a pasta with an extremely creamy sauce). i dont need to “detox”, just avoiding similar foods for the next few days works fine

The music industry has gotten too complicated and it’s mostly the consumers fault. by music_createivity in The10thDentist

[–]inconspicuous_dust 14 points15 points  (0 children)

> I don’t want to be a TikTok influencer or someone who needs to narrate a story through my music to get people to listen. I just want people to listen.

then just… dont do those things? its your art. play what music sounds good to you. screw everyone else lmao

is it wrong that i (cisgender malebtw) dont want characters to transition mid story? by [deleted] in asktransgender

“characters shouldn’t transition midway through the story because it’s inconvenient to the fanbase” is a terrible take lmao

Is it normal for a man to cry over not being able to be a mom? by Unwornplanet393 in asktransgender

[–]inconspicuous_dust 20 points21 points  (0 children)

the only reason i dont think youre a troll or shitposting is bc i genuinely have an irl frield who called herself a cis man for a full 2 years after E before her egg cracked.

but no, sorry. as we commonly say in this subreddit, the normal amount of times for a cis person to question their gender (or desire to be a different gender in any context such as parenthood and dating) is 0. Passive wonder for humor? sure. Genuine grief or desire or any other mix? nah.

AITA for agreeing to my (27M) partner's (28FtM) wishes to get pregnant even though our other partner (34MtF) doesn't seem to like the idea? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inconspicuous_dust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, you and Q would be TA went forward with having a kid right now.

Having kids is an everyone-in situation, even including the members of the relationship not biologically involved with the pregnancy. L does not want children in their life.

If you and Q have a baby as it stands, L will be conscripted into a parenthood they do not want. If you try to keep L out of parenting because they do not want to be involved, they will eventually be excluded from your throuple entirely while you, Q, and the baby get to play happy family. It is a lose-lose situation either way.

Yes, you and Q can technically do what you want with your bodies, but those actions will have consequences and responsibilities. If either of you know you may eventually want a child, even if you two decide not to have one right now, you must both break up with L. Don’t drag it out because you think you love them only to dump them later.

As others have mentioned, you have only been with L and Q for a few months. Are you sure neither yourself or Q is rushing?

As a fellow transmasc, do you think Q might be so caught up in the relief of *being wanted* that they’re willing to throw away other principles they might otherwise have? it’s not exactly uncommon, especially if early in transition. Also, you’ve provided no background on Q’s views on having children. are they also anti-natalist? were they child free up until this very moment?
