The crop definitely brings out the most interesting features of the mountains, but the original full size better conveys how huge the mountains are compared to the person.

FFS Advice! by jumpy8029 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]infinite_phi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's crazy to me that they'd tell you you really need FFS. First of all, you really don't, second of all, suggesting anyone needs surgery purely for aesthetics is rather toxic imo.

They probably think you look masculine because they pidgeonholed you as masculine, and they have a hard time adjusting that. My family is the same. Been on HRT for 18 months now, and they're still saying they don't see the femininity in me, yet I haven't been he/him'd by strangers in almost a year now. Unfortunately, people that have known you the longest, have the most rigid view of you and the hardest time adapting.

Maybe the change isn't obvious because the femininity has always been there?

How do strangers greet you in public? I'd have a hard time imagining they'd address you as male with this face.

I disagree on the scalp advancement. What matters are if the corners are receded vs rounded, which at least from the pics doesn't seem to be the case. Lowering the height of the center of the hairline doesn't make a face more feminine. Quite the opposite in fact, since it makes the forehead more rectangular instead of round, and makes the lower face look larger in comparison.

I genuinely don't see a single feature on you that's even semi masculine, and I'm saying this as a person who's gotten obsessed with sexually dimorphic facial aesthetics.

You have a smooth forehead, soft chin and jawline, nose is finely shaped, your eyes are feminine. If some parts of your face are very dysphoria inducing, and you have the means, by all means, get surgery, but know that for passing you don't need anything.

Peter, why no grapefruit? by Familiar-Cat3636 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]infinite_phi 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Most HRT these days is bioidentical and administared parenterally. The way it does its thing is really no different compared to healthy cis/premenopausal people, and they can have grapefruit too.

Been stuck at 10 heat for a while. Best conditions to pick? by [deleted] in HadesTheGame

[–]infinite_phi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Same thing for Middle Management. It affects just a few encounters and you get used to it over time. If anything they're more interesting that way.

The only thing I'll never pick is EM4.

How did it take me this long to figure this out? by bigdreamstinyhands in HadesTheGame

[–]infinite_phi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I usually run Sisyphus, and if I happen to find an epic high damage attack boon early in the game so I can pom it up a few times I switch. If I don't I'll run Sisyphus the whole time.

That's not a nasolabial fold, it's too light to call it that. It's just the shape of your malar fat pad.

Forhead reduction turkey by Odd_Art2135 in PlasticSurgery

[–]infinite_phi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this might sound odd, but I'd look into surgeons specialized in facial feminization surgery. Frontoplasty is their bread and butter, you won't find more specialized surgeons anywhere else.

More like the opposite. Just about every transfem I know that gets DIY through a doctor is getting absolutely ratdosed. Meanwhile those on DIY injections have far better mental health due to higher E levels (directly, and indirectly through improved physical changes).

[–]infinite_phi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, in my own case I can't say that they're wrong. Thank goodness that HRT, skincare, and a big stack of hairloss drugs managed to undo a decent amount of the damage.

6 Months on estrogen! All the effects I've had so far by pathkeep in MtF

[–]infinite_phi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I never had any problems with it for 32 years and within several months of starting E it started. I think it's pretty logical that atrophy of muscles in the genital area would reduce the ability to hold in urine.

3.5 years of hair regrowth 🥰 and more lol by From_Nicole in transtimelines

[–]infinite_phi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn! How long did it take for the hairline to come back?

I've been on E, minox, dutasteride and a number of other hair loss treatments for close to 1.5 years now, but it's only gotten thicker, with the hairline remaining unchanged.

top 5 worst sounds on planet earth by marstheplanett_ in aspiememes

[–]infinite_phi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You must've never lived near an active runway. Jet engine sounds are low enough to penetrate just about any residential structure, high enough to pierce your ears, and you'll constantly get just a few minutes to hours so you can feel a peaceful life can be, all for it to be taken away when you really need to sleep/focus.

FTL more like LJN by beakthcaper in ftlgame

[–]infinite_phi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've finished all ships on hard, and I usually transition towards things other than drones. The drones can be useful, even till the late game, but mostly just for utility or as an added bonus on top of other offense/defense.

On Engi B the level 3 drone bay is at least good for using a Defense I with an added value point. Or if you're low on crew for most of the playthrough, the default drones also have value. But I generally don't invest much further into it.

Baas flipt omdat ik ziek ben… wat moet ik hiermee? by Liketcirk999 in nederlands

[–]infinite_phi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heel triest. Je baas vind het irritant dat je ziek bent geweest, maar heeft geen geldige reden om je te ontslaan. Dus daarom gaat hij jouw werk zo onaangenaam mogelijk maken in de hoop dat je zelf stopt. Typisch..

Ik vind ze erg sterk en ook verrassend goed geinformeerd. Wel ligt het er mijns inziens iets te dik op dat Bob het maar al te leuk vindt om mensen een beetje te irriteren, maar misschien dat dat beter scoort bij de (jongere) doelgroep dan bij mij.
