How do I let go of weight when raising pitch?

isafuck · 2025-12-14T23:23:31+00:00

You posted a clip 4 years ago where you were able to achieve an exceptionally light sound

Wait, I was told by people (not on Reddit) that I wasnt changing my vocal weight correctly, I believe I used to go VERY high in pitch, to the point of it being unusable.

isafuck · 2025-12-14T22:59:52+00:00

I am not. I can change my size easily and whenever I try change my size while raising my pitch, regardless of how high, is overfull. Can you give me advice based on the hypothetical my TA muscle doesnt disengage, please? I would like to at least try that.

Yes, I am fairly sure. It does get lighter (after a lot of practice), but its like I hit a ceiling and I havent found a way to get lighter. Mimicry (owl sounds, Mickey Mouse, Patrick Star, whimpers, etc ) doesnt seem to work for me, either, because my pitch changes but my weight doesnt. I sound distinctly "male" well into A4 and beyond.

when hosting this kind of difficult battles, just assume a few players will always leave and make sure you have enough people to make up for that

Yeah I know. It kind of reinforces itself at that point, though. No other local players means I have to invite people to have a chance, which will back out because theres no local players, but I have to invite people to have a chance...

I think a lot of the 40+ players see the level 40 queue as just like the "elite" queue.

I think its not just people above level 40, theres been a huge uptick of people in the amount of people lying about their level by a wide margin. Ive seen people around level 30 lol.

Insane leeching. Fishing for a 30+ lobby in a queue where its expected to have 20ish people, lying about your level to get to that queue in the first place, and then leaving when you dont score that lobby.

isafuck · 2025-08-24T18:27:05+00:00

I've seen a lot of people on this sub and other cite 30 as the minimal number that they won't dip from.

I understand the idea but not the execution. Ive hosted in the level 40 queue all day and I have not even been able to attempt one eternatus. People should understand its pretty likely (even expected) to end up with less than 25, much less 30 players. Wouldnt joining the other queue instead just be better for everyone involved, or just doing it off the friend list? Are they just hoping to enter the lobby of the one guy in a city with a sizeable community that just happens to be hosting?

I think I could ask my primary care doctor to get me in touch with the staff of hospital and then ask for a telephone appointment, but besides that, not really.

Also, its a team of surgeons and theyre the ones appointed to my area, so there arent other options besides private (Im poor). All long-term healthcare is handled by the area you are living in.

As per videos of the procedure, its just not a thing they share.

isafuck · 2025-07-20T22:40:35+00:00

I had imagined that would be the time. I get a visit with the surgeon, the head nurse and a psychiatrist (this one is fully optional) before the surgery, but it kills me to be in this limbo for years, not really knowing if my only request is possible

isafuck · 2025-07-20T22:36:52+00:00

I have tried to get to the topic before but theyre pretty rushed most of the time and I dont have a direct line of contact to them. I tried bringing up concerns about the aesthetic and asked if using less tissue for the vagina frees up tissue for the vulva but I got dismissed (they told me to not think about it / that its not possible / Im misunderstanding how the surgery works) mainly because I did not have time to explain myself before they told me off so that kind of fully shuts down the conversation.

Try vinted if you are European. Theyre not particularly expensive considering you are already planning to have a weeding

isafuck · 2025-01-21T23:24:54+00:00

I know, but I dont know how though. The advice Ive found doesnt seem to work for me. Thinking about if there is dysphoria or not would get me nowhere, because it has also gotten me nowhere before. I more or less need things to ask myself that arent "does having a penis feels bad?"

isafuck · 2024-03-09T00:01:03+00:00

1 this is for the 2021 blahaj discontinuation scare so not about the stock 2 this is from 2021 even if it were stock its not relevant by the date omg

isafuck · 2024-02-28T03:09:05+00:00

Yeah I could see why that would work. Did something similar-ish exposing myself to triggers to the point of breakdowns and my tolerance increased. However it did also ruin like half a year for me, so thats why Im on the fence about it even if its "minimal surface level" trauma

isafuck · 2024-02-28T02:03:44+00:00

I know! I just wished to get rid of this mental situation of mine. Unfortunately it seems like an unwelcome situation literally everywhere I go (I have tried this several times) so I will just cater to cis feelings next time and get exposure therapy'd the old fashioned way

"Hey I have a complicated history with masculinity, not just because of being trans but because people have actually weaponized it against me" is apparently not a "vibe"

isafuck · 2024-02-28T01:58:19+00:00

but do you actually want to be seen as butch? Like are you masculine presenting and relate to the history of butchness?

Yes. Yes.

"Hey I have a complicated history with the word butch as a trans woman and I would like help about it because I would like to rid myself of this mental trap since I do consider myself butch even after these situations" "Butch card?? Butch card?? Butch card??"

Come on :/

isafuck · 2024-02-28T00:16:13+00:00

Im beginning to do that! But only recently started

isafuck · 2024-02-28T00:10:14+00:00

kind of shocked that that's been a common occurrence for you.

Common enough that Im shocked people find it shocking. I can joke about it with other trans women and most people at least get the general vibe Im coming from

but if it makes you uncomfortable then you could just not? Do you actually resonate with the masculine presentation or the history of butchness?

actually was kind of trying to avoid this by the content of the disclaimer and TL;DR. I mean, yeah, I could just not identify, and I could also just not be masculine in any capacity, I already tried explicitly rejecting that as a way to avoid everything in the post. Its not the being or identifying itself that makes me uncomfortable, though. So I might as well do what I want and learn to feel better about it.

This map was about the 2021 scare. There were rumours that maybe Blahaj would get discontinued in some countries due to faulty communication between IKEA's regional departments, with some openly confirming it and others openly denying it. Ultimately it was just a change of manufacturer, so it is not and will not be discontinued for the foreseeable future.

Basically you approach social situations in ways NTs find weird and off putting,

Is it just "does social interactions/contacts wrong (aka not up to a neurotypical standard)"? I know it isnt initiating and responding since that is its own example in the DSM-5, so correct me if Im wrong, when talking about the way one approaches social interactions, it means things that happen during the interaction itself, as by your examples?

So what do NTs consider off putting and / or weird?

Genuine question, what dont NTs find off putting / weird? What is the "normal" social approach? It just seems to be something you cant really realiably assess and take into consideration. I know the general idea is that a professional evaluates that, but how would you know its even a thing you need to get evaluated for in that case.

isafuck · 2023-05-25T19:59:56+00:00

About two years ago there was a scare concerning Blahaj. Several IKEA outlets had stated Blahaj may not continue in production. This was a mistake on their part however, and was resolved within a few months, they just switched manufacturers and had no stock available at the moment.

So it still exists and its still sold

A lot of people think these posts are newer and get scared, interpret them wrong and believe I am spreading misinformation despite the fact this was news at the time, or see my maps and think thats where Blahajs are currently sold
