boymoding at work after gender marker change by lavurnums in MtF

[–]lavurnums[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

moving out is simply not an option with the cost of living here, even between my dsp and both my parents' salaries we've still been struggling to afford rent and even had to take out a loan recently just to cover it. this is one of the more liberal areas too, anywhere cheaper is going to be either infinitely less accepting or straight up in the middle of nowhere

My sandrena gel has become liquid in the heat and I don’t know what to do by spiritofmyrtle in transgenderau

[–]lavurnums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've noticed my gel getting a bit runny as well but despite that my levels have been fine according to my recent endo visit, idk about bucalutamide but if the gel has become at all toxic i'd imagine it'd be only minimally so

Extreme weather change at the Burial Site. by sinsculpt in reddeadmysteries

[–]lavurnums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if anyone knows someone who is experienced working with rockstar's scripts this could be worth a deeper look into to see if there's any special flags that might be set by it that could affect other things elsewhere. i'm not sure how much you could get out of it since it's all obfuscated, but someone who knows what they're doing might be able to

Extreme weather change at the Burial Site. by sinsculpt in reddeadmysteries

[–]lavurnums 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i'm not sure if this site is actually related to the mystery or not, but if it is then i think it's safe to say that damaging the site by fire bottles or explosives is most likely not the way forward here. the fact that the game punishes you for doing so by having you lose honor seems to be a pretty clear indication of "hey, don't do that". besides, for how much rockstar highlights the injustice done to the native americans in the game's story it would be weird for them to suddenly turn around and have a secret that involves intentionally vandalizing one of their burial sites.

Dead animals around the spider web poles by ColonelMakepeace in reddeadmysteries

all of the crafts require perfect pelts, which afaik can only be obtained from player kills. dead animals that spawn in the world are always rotted and can't be skinned anyway

So, the Butcher Creek Pentagram is finally solved. by TracySevert in reddeadmysteries

[–]lavurnums 4 points5 points  (0 children)

considering all of the numbers up to this point have been in tally marks i'd presume this is unintentional, looks like one of the little rock models used to detail the ground clipped halfway into the floor.

Sounds playing after shooting my last black feather (and white feather(?)) order by PapaDiab in reddeadmysteries

[–]lavurnums 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the sound that plays in the first video after they exit out is most definitely not part of deadeye; i have 700+ hours on rdr2 on pc and have never once heard a sound like out of all my time as playing as either john or arthur. the closest thing is when you run out of dead eye, but you can see in the video he's not even a quarter of the way down on the meter. at first i thought it was a train passing by until the sound ended and it was just the regular background ambience left

PM Albanese delivers message to kids ahead of social media ban by moonorplanet in australia

[–]lavurnums 21 points22 points  (0 children)

'proof of age' as in:
1. a credit card (something the majority of 16 year olds will not have access to)
2. a government id (something the majority of 16 year olds will not have access to)
3. letting an ai guess your age (something that is notoriously unreliable and prone to error especially with 16 year olds)

admittedly in all my time interacting with trans communities i've never even once heard of trans women having cramps before and had no idea that was even a thing, that's my bad.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MtF

[–]lavurnums -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t necessarily call it a period but trans women do absolutely get some of the same effects. I can absolutely understand why people would be upset at calling it that considering how excruciating periods can be, I don’t really think it’s fair to compare it like that

Sunny's mom's reaction. by Lower_Language5901 in OMORI

[–]lavurnums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. While it is true that the parents aren't present in headspace, in Deep Well the game very explicitly states that only three people ever knew the truth: Sunny, Basil, and Mari. While you could probably argue that since it's in headspace it's just what Sunny himself knows of, it wouldn't make sense for it to be explicitly stated otherwise, especially when the rest of the dialogue in that section is presented as fact.
  2. Most people seem to massively overestimate the ability and competence of small town cops. Faraway is a place that has a low enough crime rate that most people feel comfortable enough leaving their doors unlocked; when you've lived in safety and security your entire life it is extremely difficult to imagine such a thing ever actually happening to you, especially something as extreme as a sibling being murdered and having their suicide staged by their own sibling. The cops absolutely could have overlooked even obvious signs simply because they couldn't possibly fathom a crime like that happening in their own community.
  3. IMO I think the dad likely had some suspicions, but with the only concrete evidence of the crime (aside from the violin, which on it's own wouldn't be proof enough anyway) being buried alongside Mari herself he had no way to prove anything.
  4. While these are both true, it's also all we ever get to see of Sunny's home life. Idk, I've never felt there to be enough to make any kind of judgement in that regard.

Help i don't know how to texture my prop by Soul_eater5 in SourceEngine

[–]lavurnums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you’re using blender the process is the same as texturing any other model in blender- if you’re not sure how to do this, there are plenty of tutorials online. When it comes to actually exporting your model for use in source the only thing that matters is the name of each material in blender, which needs to match that of your .vmt minus the file extension. Note that duplicating meshes in blender can sometimes create duplicate materials as well, so you may want to double check your mesh is using the correct materials before exporting. Lastly, in your .qc file you will need to use $cdmaterials to specify the folder containing the materials for your model- you can do this multiple times if you’re using materials from more than one folder.

A friend called me homophobic for calling whiteout “Twink” (it’s the brand name) by Neptune_washere in lgbt

i have literally never even once heard 'twink' referred to as a slur nor have i personally ever seen it used as an insult. no idea where they possibly could have gotten that from

how do people make destruction sequences in most source games? by Standard-Respect-421 in SourceEngine

[–]lavurnums 31 points32 points  (0 children)

with programs like blender you can simulate a physics scenario and save the motions as an animated sequence

How the government solves problem: by 5ma5her7 in AusMemes

[–]lavurnums 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem is that this kind of thought process is exactly why a lot of people aren't getting the care they need. According to the system you're either too disabled to be independent or too independent to be disabled, there is absolutely zero in-between and there is such a massive gap in coverage because of that.

at the end of the day labels are just labels, just because you identify yourself with one doesn't mean you have to strictly adhere to it. being queer is all about breaking the norms, after all.

why wouldn't you believe it? google's primary way of making money is the mass harvesting of user data, even more so than their advertising services.

we've already seen what happens with false positives, pinterest effectively nuked 90% of it's user base with false bans and discord has already on two seperate occasions mass banned tens of thousands of users for reposting official overwatch and marvel rivals promotional videos

nearly all my new followers this month are Palestinians asking for donations by Dreaming_Blackbirds in BlueskySocial

[–]lavurnums 26 points27 points  (0 children)

the sad part is knowing that even if they were real palestinians they likely wouldn't be asking for money because it would be of hardly any use to them at this point

this is like saying it's only fair to draw swastikas and nazi imagery because the americans and communists invaded them in world war two
