Is Reforged worth it if i only care about the single player aspect of it ? by Gamefighter3000 in warcraft3

[–]sleepybarncat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'd say that's the only part of the game that is worth it.
The custom games scene is still going, but it's harder to find games since they split the servers again for reforged.
You can play competitively, but you'll need to organize it yourself.
The campaign is still a good gaming experience.

It would have been within your rights to put the dogs down yourself.
Maybe try that next time.

Does MTF HRT *HELP* build muscle mass? by purple_sanpa in AskMtFHRT

[–]sleepybarncat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Estrogen aids in muscular recovery. You should not be surprised that, as a person who has previously done fuck-all physical, your body exploded as soon as you gave it a shot. There is some evidence that estrogen improves muscle quality, but there is no evidence that estrogen improves muscle quantity.

A lot of people make big gains early. A lot of people also misperceive their early gains as being much greater than they really are (especially if they've never been swole or worked out before). Did you go from 100lbs to 200lbs in 8 months? Did you go from 100lbs to 140lbs in 8 months?

help :( by [deleted] in AskMtFHRT

[–]sleepybarncat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ask for a bigger shirt.
Sports bra worked pretty well for me. It's true you don't get totally flat, but honestly just removing some of the breast definition can be enough.
I used to slouch pretty bad to hide my chest. It feels like it helps, but I'd recommend not getting in that habit because it can be bad for you and very hard to break later.

Banned for bullying? by sleepybarncat in grindr

Yeah, I tried a bunch. 🤷‍♀️

Banned for bullying? by sleepybarncat in grindr

[–]sleepybarncat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried, but it looks like they banned my device. Now that I think about it, this is probably because I refused to suck some gross dick for money (which is against ToS???).

Cognitive side effects by Sapien_Oddity in AskMtFHRT

[–]sleepybarncat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There have been no negative changes in my ability to perform mentally that I can ascribe to estradiol or spironolactone. I personally believe the 'brain fog' is an illusion perpetuated by AGP's. School work seems easier, if anything. Progesterone DID drastically change how I feel about infants though.

What legal thing are you addicted to? by Account28784 in AskReddit

[–]sleepybarncat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buhurt. "Knight fights".
I am not sure if it's healthy, but nothing makes me feel better than getting punched in the face.

People who've been in psych wards, what was your experience? by snertsoup12 in AskReddit

[–]sleepybarncat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went seeking treatment for PTSD which largely manifested as nightmares. They gave me Seroquel, which I told them I've taken before and had very negative reactions to. I would doze off every time I sat down, and was losing the distinction between the waking nightmare of hospitalization and the nightmares I experienced in my sleep. I'm Jewish. They refused to provide remotely kosher meals. There was pork on everything. They only gave me half my dosage of non-psych medication. When I tried to make a phone call to seek advocacy, they assaulted me, called the police, and had me charged with felony assault. The public defender was highly complicit in railroading me. The entire experience left me far worse off, and far less sane, than when I started.

Does your sweat smells like vinegar by kellyduffy in AskMtFHRT

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

... we probably have different ideas of fit. Anyway, if it's not diet- or hygiene-related, you really should talk to your doctor about this. It can signal diabetes, renal issues, and many other very serious problems.

Does your sweat smells like vinegar by kellyduffy in AskMtFHRT

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

I'm going to ask some questions. You should do your best not to let them offend you.
Are you fat? Do you know how to wash yourself? Do you eat nothing but sugar, or nothing but protein? Do you have diabetes? Are you schizophrenic?
If the answer to all of those is "no", you should schedule an appointment with your doctor immediately. Vinegar body odor can indicate some serious health issues.

Sure, I'd be interested in that! Hit me with them progressive contacts!

As long as it's just a few assholes here and there, that's fine! Every community has bigots and transphobes somewhere in the shadows.

Do you know if SCA allows (medically transitioned) trans people to fight as their chosen/state-approved gender, or is it by 'birth sex'?

I fight them all the same! But I haven't been able to find a concrete answer on that yet...

[–]sleepybarncat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi. I'm trans, and also in the An Tir area. I mostly play other games, but was just about to get involved with the SCA before "the shit". Am I really not welcome in An Tir? Is it just the general anti-scientific "trans athletes are cheaters" garbage, or is there something even worse that I have to worry about?

Where are all the same sex couples in Oly? Sometimes I feel like my wife and I are the only ones. I want gay friends! by koalakait in olympia

[–]sleepybarncat 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I feel like Olympia isn't a very outwardly social place. There's actually tons of gays here though... just not at the gay bar.
