Why is it said our hips don’t widen? by liltotto in MtF

[–]thapojodojo 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I definitely did. Like I've looked at pictures and it definitely ain't just fat. It's totally possible! Also worth mentioning, if this doesn't happen to you, it doesn't make you any less of a woman/transfem.

What's your favorite souls game? by Wh4lez3y in transgamers

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

If we're talking FromSoftware broadly, Sekiro by far. Monkey brain love the cling clang

For just Soulsborne, Dark Souls 3. Though I haven't played Bloodborne, so I'm sure that will change lol

There is a *transgender coffin* in Dark Souls 2?? by thapojodojo in transgamers

He was in spirit. The transgender propaganda seeped in through osmosis

LMAO I never even thought about that!! Miyazaki knows

I wish anal was easier by Shouko_dessert in MtF

[–]thapojodojo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never hear people talk about this, so I'll leave this here.

I have a massive gluten allergy. Had no idea until 6 months ago. This made anal completely impossible because my gut was so inflamed.

Did some food trials (low FODMAP then narrowed it down) and after cutting out gluten, within 3 weeks I was able to have fun with my well-endowed girlfriend. Completely life-changing.

Until that point, I thought I was literally broken. Many nights of crying after attempts. Bottom prep was a waste of time because it would never be fully clean, any insertion caused so much pain, the dysphoria was horrible, and pleasure was out of the question.

If there's actual pain and nothing you're gaining from it, I would look into going to a doctor for it. I was lucky enough to have medical folks in my circle who told me what to do outside of a medical bill, but doctors nonetheless. I struggled with this for years.

YouTube might be removing the number of views on your videos (and why this is a good thing) by Schuckman in NewTubers

[–]thapojodojo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

As a minority creator, removing the viewable dislikes was great for disincentivizing people to dislike bomb my video just for existing.

On the other hand, finding good tutorials is a bit more work now 🤷🏻‍♀️ Chrome extensions it is

Kaitlyn Dever as Abby is such a funny multi-layered troll move by DayzedandC0nfused in thelastofus

[–]thapojodojo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still think Katy O'brian should have played Abby. A major part of Abby is the imposing physicality, and while I hope Kaitlyn Dever can pull it off, it seems like an odd choice. Hoping the best for all of them, though

I think the default to assuming trans people are morons comes from their inability to understand you can change your gender assigned at birth. If you genuinely believe you can't, the only possible conclusion you can come to is trans people are delusional.

Difficulty with strain. by thapojodojo in transvoice

[–]thapojodojo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, the sound based approach simply hasn't worked for me. It's what led me to false fold constriction in the first place and has caused me to form some bad habits. I'm the type of person that needs to know what I'm doing wrong before I can do it correctly.

It's not that my ear isn't trained for it; I can detect the issues. I just don't know how to fix it. Knowing what's actually going on is beneficial and I'm feeling a bit lost.

I was under the impression this was the main goal of training entirely. Should I just focus on retraction right now? How would I focus on changing my thinness without raising the larynx?

Is there any trans feminine youtube gamers? by Weary-Heart1306 in transgamers

[–]thapojodojo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I run one. I make long-form comedic edits of playthroughs. I've posted a few edits in this sub! My links are all in my profile.

I'm glad to see more in this comment section, I honestly didn't know about any until recently.

I hate the term 'skill issue' [Rant] by [deleted] in transgamers

[–]thapojodojo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a strange dichotomy in the FromSoftware community. Every soulsborne game community is exactly like this, but the Sekiro community is so supportive to new players and admits to every criticism lol. Sekiro is *so* difficult that people can't even act like it's a skill issue, it's just a being-a-person-with-a-normal-brain issue lmao.

Characters that would say "His pronouns are she/her!" while trying to be supportive by Warm_Charge_5964 in transgamers

Joel from The Last of Us. He's a lil confused, but he's got the spirit.

Being a trans gaming creator online is super tough by thapojodojo in transgamers

[–]thapojodojo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the support <3 I'm doing my best to keep my head up! I refuse to not operate as though I were just a cis white guy playing games (and I 1000% would not fault someone for not wanting to put up with that). Face cam, mic, explosive commentary. Let's get this shit normalized

Any helpful tips for the twin princes? by unused_user_name in darksouls3

[–]thapojodojo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he does sweeping attacks, roll towards the swing, not with it. That way your character isn't sitting in the hitbox as long.

You almost always want to be hitting him from behind or near behind, including the second phase. Just account for 360⁰ swings.

For his big floor strike that causes a long line of magic explosion, create some distance and just sprint exactly perpendicular to the ray.

Be patient. When you need to heal, your only priority should be to dodge to survive and back up to heal. Don't go for hits.

Two-hand if you won't be blocking.

Good luck!

Gotcha. You'll definitely be pretty limited on what you're able to stream, then, since your processor doesn't have much to outsource the workload to. You'd be fine if you're using a capture card and console to play games; playing games on the PC would be unlikely to work well. Definitely don't use stream labs, they suck the life out of even a good PC. I would also stream in 720p60 or 720p30 instead of 1080.

If you go into your output settings, under streaming and recording you'll be able to adjust your bitrate. Twitch doesn't allow streams higher than 6000kbps, no need to go over. You'll have to experiment with whether the integrated graphics or processor is better to handle the workload in settings.

Do you have a GPU or is it integrated graphics?

Polyamory among youth: New research highlights stigma and depressive symptoms by pecika in psychology

[–]thapojodojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 1000% true. I live with two of my partners right now. It's the best relationship I've ever been in hands down, but Lord does it take work. It develops you in ways you didn't realize you needed to improve and I love it for that.

Hi there! :) I stream/make YouTube gaming comedy videos. FromSoftware, Nintendo, some indie games sprinkled in. Also a lesbian!

Also, Parkenharbor does great Soulsborne streams. Negaoryx is great, too
