You can miss a few or whatever, it only grows back slowly. Learning openings to throw in a few sword attacks inbetween parries to keep consistently draining their stamina is the goal. Gotta break the habit of dodging attacks and instead learn the rhythm of attack chains to parry.

I'm not really sure what your point has to do with that

Comment on My partner says our relationship has always felt suffocating, but she does not know what she wants. What would you do? in ~life
xothist Link ParentHonestly it sounds like you two are just not a good match. There are people out there that would appreciate the type of care you want to give/receive.Honestly it sounds like you two are just not a good match.

Dude has done the completionist++ challenge without losing a match. Definitely gave me a better idea of how to value the different jokers and strategies.

xothist Link ParentThanks so much! I really feel for all my trans siblings that don't have access to free healthcare, it really hurts my heart. I hope you're able to get the care you need somehow.Thanks so much! I really feel for all my trans siblings that don't have access to free healthcare, it really hurts my heart.

I found it exhausting the thought of fighting against being labelled he/him. Now having started transition and using she/her I still feel more like I just want to be seen as a human but fighting the gender binary is more effort than it's worth. I just really don't want to be perceived as a man, woman is fine, human is best.

But I agree with the sentiment that fighting to be seen as not part of the binary is oftentimes more effort than it's worth. Its really sad how constraining language is. I had a convo with a friend recently about her nibbling who has identified as non-binary since they were 8 (they are now 12) and I thought why in the fuck do children even get genders. All children are just children and it's weird as shit to me that we try to tell them what mold to fit in from birth, before they even know themselves.
Gender reveal parties give me the ick. World would be better if all people were just people. Division breeds conflict and language breeds division.

It's actually going really well. I did a zero depth (no vaginal canal, just a vulva and clit) so it's slightly less invasive with fewer risks of complications. I think if I was still single and in my 20s then maybe I would have chosen differently. The idea of having to dilate for the rest of my life is still daunting though.
If there are any confused or scared trans girlies out there feel free to ask Q's.
I just feel blessed that Canadians have access to these kinds of surgeries and that they are still (for now ...) covered by our healthcare.
Funny you should mention being able to cold-shoulder people as a solution since being able to block users is one of the recently requested features that preceeded some of our recent departures.
