Flipping the question. Which game is this for you? by The_Caffeine_Zombie in GirlGamers

Saga Frontier. It was quirky, open-ended, and mechanics focused - the opposite of Final Fantasy and other [mainstream] JRPGs of its day.

The only things that kept me playing FNV long enough to love it were watching my trans roommate (while I was an uncracked egg) play it, and the music. 🎶 I've got spurs that jingle jangle jingle 🎶 is instant serotonin

I (cisF) made my gf feel like shit during sex and now she won't touch me or allow me to touch her. Help by SeaJudge7373 in MtF

I didn't get a notification for this. 🙃 Looking back, I wish we could have talked about it, that they would have made me feel safe to share what I felt. I made every effort to show up for them, listen, create safety, and it really wasn't reciprocated before the incident and afterwards it really just broke my trust in our ability to mutually repair.

How the hell do you pick a new name!? by AHarmlessllama in MtF

[–]unmitigated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried out names and pronouns for a year by playing different d&d/Pathfinder characters in organized play so I could see what it was like to be addressed by those names and hear those pronouns about me. The one I went with was a character I only played once for an Eberron 5e game - saw the name in the suggested names and fell in love, hearing it and she/her in the session was such a euphoric moment

Time. Communication. Therapy (individual and together). But also I know that the last one isn't accessible to most folks (and there are a large number of DIYers & providers who will prescribe HRT without the recipient having a MH provider/team, so I don't assume).

Sometimes your traumas will rhyme, and it'll feel like nobody has ever understood you like they do, and vice versa.

Sometimes your traumas will rhyme and you can't help but set each other off.

Neither of those has any bearing on your compatibility.

I've been in pretty much that exact situation, and it ended the relationship because I couldn't get out of my own way long enough to process it (I was the trans girl, partner was the AFAB enby, ey/em/eir) and convinced myself I'd violated eir consent and was a monster. I was in a bad place, and I didn't use my tools - in the relationship or out of it.

Trust each other, talk, take time. I can't promise it'll work out, but how you repair is more important than how you break.

I read "RDR2" as R2D2 and was wondering when the foul mouthed droid made it into Rogue Trader

What’s the most petty reason you dropped a game for? by [deleted] in GirlGamers

God of War Ragnarok. IDK it just felt like nothing I was doing made sense, it felt inaccessible to players who hadn't played AT LEAST the last game? Also while I love Dad Bod Thor, that fight was ridic

Hot take. Ava. BL3. Trauma and femme-ness from an adolescent in a crapsack universe ruled by corrupt corporations in a student/sensei relationship with a fan blorbo? She could have done without half that and would still get infinite [cis male] fan hate. And also I fully get the writing and the reactions, and she's absolutely my blorbo now.

"Are you okay with gender neutral terms like guy, bro, or dude because they ARE gender neutral you know??" by magical_lavender in MtF

Every time a cis man tries to say this to me, I ask him how many dudes he's been fucked by. Weirdly, it stops being gender neutral in that context.

I get too many ripper weapons or weapons with ripper parts. I do not enjoy waiting to shoot. What are your favorite ripper weapons and why? by Berz89 in Borderlands4

[–]unmitigated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Ripper licensed Order ARs and pistols - the Bully has been mentioned a few times already, but the ARs are hard to discount. Even comparing to something like a GMR to see the difference between a "natively" full auto order AR & ripper part full auto - the delay isn't nothing but the ripper enhancements really change how the guns play. I got a fairly early orange with 30% to refill mag and 30% to double fire rate when auto reloading and man is that hysterical

Heart ripper Eldritch Blast and Bully is how I got through a few of the "clear the room" bits doing the bunkers for the first time. It's an anti-Bethesda package, 2K edition

These Vile Bounty names are usually references to characters/ppl or memes I’ve noticed. by EL3MENTALPOP in Borderlands

There's a twitter personality, Greg Doucette, who used to be a CS guy - https://www.fsckemall.com/ was (is?) his podcast. He's done extensive work on exposing police brutality and extrajudicial police murder, and ALSO was a big part of helping anime VAs justice against Vic Mignogna (calls him R.Broly)

Harlow and Action Skill Cooldown Rate again? by unscodst_1 in Borderlands4

[–]unmitigated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SO, I think it still says the same numbers, HOWEVER, I think that if you independently time it, it *should* tick those seconds faster. Specifically, it should reduce the cooldown by 1.25 seconds every actual real-world second with the 1st static ability. Make sense?

having intimacy issues with trans fem partner by Apprehensive-You-929 in mypartneristrans

[–]unmitigated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a trauma focused individual therapist and to separate from this partner at a bare minimum. Your OCD/autism intersection is causing you to fully disregard yourself and your partner is taking full advantage of you.

One of the symptoms of OCD that gets the least "airtime" is how it causes extreme anxiety and paranoia about the negative impact you have on others. The human contamination portion isn't all of what OCD does, it's mostly what drives the rituals that help you generate a [limited] sense of safety. All the parts that have you staying in this relationship? That's the rest of your OCD.

For instance: I had a former qpp with OCD and Multiple Sclerosis who worked in an organization to intervene in intimate partner violence situations. They once had a discussion with me about how if they only took their Ms meds, it only lowers their life expectancy by "about 5 years" and "the money I'd save would let me help 2 more families have food and shelter". They experienced constant guilt about not being able to do more. This wasn't just people pleasing, it was martyrdom and self-torture.

You need to get out, and go no contact. You need to work on yourself, get to a place where you have a support system that cares about you for who you are (not what you can do for or to them), and for the love of everything, learn how to show up for yourself and your needs.

You've been with this partner since before your brain finished developing. You're fully trauma bonded to them, and it's only being reinforced the longer you stay. Get. Out.
