LGBTQIA+ |OT9| The Return of the Queen

When I was like 15, an owner of shop who I knew for years told me that she never wants to see me there not clean shaven again. :(

Well screw you.

For context it was a magic shop and she would have been thinking in terms of appearance for a performance but not even that justifies it.

Tell me about it. My ass hair is thick and gets unbelievably long. I'll never forget the horror of entering puberty witnessing my ass turn into a hairy mess. I have to trim it at least once a month or else it looks like someone glued a small dog to my buttocks.

Reading this had me laughing so hard, especially with the part about the glued dog, lol. Sorry, it's just the way you wrote it had me laughing and my father thinking I'm weird. xD

Yet some like my wife crave and love being hairy..........thank the goddess couches exist.

What do couches have to with hair?

They save me from it.

If she is a hair phase I will choose the couch, can't snuggle like that as it feels uncomfy.

Why are you trying to look like a baby

its cheaper to just take the tax hit tbh~
Much cheaper, I bet. Isn't health insurance something crazy like $1,000/month? But that still doesn't get you help. :(

Our system in Canada is far from perfect, but I really feel for you folks down there. If it helps at all, my medication itself isn't too expensive -- $80/month -- and prescription drugs tend to be more expensive here than anywhere else. I know we're the second highest in the world, but I can't find who is "#1".
I hope it's not you guys. :(
So maybe you can take a hit, talk to a doctor and get a prescription for it or something similar?

Dammit. Why is it that the first thing that breaks on a mouse are those pads that keep it from sliding.
My issue is that there gets to be a slight nick/abrasion/imperfection on one button that bothers me for the entire time I own it. Has happened to two mice now.

You too? Though I liked him cause he was the nerd of the group
I clearly was too; look at my avatar. :p

Best way to shave pubes? Used a razor before and that irritated my skin and i got lots of ingrown hairs.
I'm a fan of shaved, personally, although I tend to trim for convenience. If my SO wants me to shave though, I absolutely will. I just love the look and feel of a shaved body. Mmm mmmmmm. . .
Speaking of shaving, is it weird that I hate armpit hair? I just cant stand hairy armpits.
Me either. It's kind of a turnoff, TBH.
Because I hate pubic and chest/arm-pit hair?
Yeah, I can deal with well-trimmed pubes, but I'm not a big chest-hair guy.

Don't most magicians rock an ironic Van Dyke, or is that just a stereotype?

I don't like much body hair but sometimes thats the way it is for guys.

Why girls don't have to be covered in hair D:
Trust me, they can be. Hell, I had an ex GF that had a small moustache. I never could bring it up, haha. Although I guess it's one of those things that, once you start to shave/wax it, you really need to keep it up.

IIRC, he walked that back, admitted he was wrong, and took it all as a learning experience.

Edit: found it.

A quick quote:
I've spent the last few days trying to apologize to people I hurt. I've been doing it via email and I've given out my phone number a lot. I realize I was wrong and I'm genuinely sorry. I also realize I can't possibly apologize on the phone to each and every person I hurt. I'm going to keep trying, but I've also decided to personally make a donation to the Trevor Project of $20,000.00. I also plan to keep interacting with people on a personal level and I understand that will be an ongoing process. In the meantime I'm hoping this donation will do some real good for a group that desperately needs it.

It's fun to drag (even though I'm still looking forward to it) but this is par the course for Bioware so I'm not sure why people are acting surprised. Janky AF animations, terrible loading, laundry list of bugs/glitches especially at launch, and an overall "how is this acceptable" performance are all staples of Bioware and indeed, most Western RPG devs.

I mean, Dragon Age Inquisition had like ten patches lmao. And I played last year and STILL it had plenty of crashes, jank, and bugs.

Bioware are a pure hit-and-miss/c-tier developer. Lately it's like there's just a bunch of people in a board room throwing out ideas about what could be cool to include, maybe focus testing. Even if some of the stuff in their games is good they are just bound to drop the ball hard on something: the ending, bugs, glitches, DA:I quest spam, animations etc. They've been in the business so long and have all the money of EA behind them is still this is the result. And to think they used to be kings of the genre. Shame.

restless, nervous, or unpredictable.

I mean Google gave me that, but I don't think it works in context.

Though re-reading the context, I guess "nervous and unpredictable" would work in that case.

I know people think the Uncharted games alongside with The Last of Us are overrated, are not actually that good of games, don't deserve the scores they get and the overhype they always receive. But compared to many other developers and their respective games (i.e. Mass Effect Andromeda), Naughty Dog's facial animations and character modeling is in a completely different class than others.

Yeah, that's good work. Maybe it's the game engine that limits the development team there.

There are game series that make me overlook stuff like that however, Mass Effect is one of them. Bioware prove to me before that they can create games that really draw me into their world. Not necessarily the main story, it's mostly the companion side quests or the characters you meet time and time again throughout the series.The voice acting is pretty great too. The jokes were mostly on point. And the music was just phenomenal, in all three games.

Frostbite shouldn't be the issue as it's EA-in-house developed at DICE with EA Sports animation systems. The only logical excuse would be facial animation and even then I don't think Battlefield's campaigns
when I've played them
have had bad facial animation.

Man bottled whipped cream is so bad. Why do they never use homemade whipped cream in porn films. People are so lazy.

I have only played one other Frostbite game and that was DAI so I thought maybe it's the game engine that's limiting them. I wonder if they can still patch something like that, they are getting a lot of complaints from the press and fans atm so maybe they will.

Mirror's Edge Catalyst doesn't have close-ups on faces, if I remember right. They used CGI cutscenes, now that I'm thinking of it.

Most of DICE's stuff, I generally don't pay attention to the faces because I'm generally focused on the action. I guess I could boot up Battlefield 3 and see if Dima's facial rigging is "off" in the
"terrorist" attack on Paris/Siene.
 
I think something happened down the line during development and I wouldn't be surprised if development stopped and started again throughout. How it stands now doesn't look like a game that was worked on for five years straight.

I think it's not a question of "lazy," but more ease of use and aesthetics. It's far easier to just grab a can and spray than to get a bowl of whipped cream and use a spatula to dollop it out. It's hard to make that look decent, but easy to just swirl it from a spray can.

It's supposed to turn you on because it's an excuse to lick your partner clean, not be the most delicious meal ever.

Food & sex should never be a thing. What if it's gone off?

I think I've only done the whipped cream thing, and that was quite a while ago. But you'd do the same thing you do with it normally: check it before use and throw it out if it's no good.

Either way, I've done (and will do again) things that are a lot worse than licking up some whipped cream off exposed skin, lol. To each their own!

Mostly I don't like feeling sticky. At least not that kind of sticky :)

Food and sex, hmmm...

I remember one time Vazra posted in the chat a gif of a dude getting hit from behind while eating pizza.

It was surprisingly hot and the pizza looked good. Anal sex while eating pizza, it seems interesting.

I've done the whole whipped cream, honey, ice cubes, and hot wax thing during sex, and i LOVE IT, in general I think I enjoy foreplay far more than I enjoy the actual act of sex.

Has anyone here been in therapy before? Does it help? I figure I should really look into going because I've been thinking about suicide more and more lately. Even at my most depressed I never considered it before.

Cutscenes in Frostbite are usually pre-rendered using in engine assets and post production tools, same as most of their trailers like the gorgeous Battlefront trailers. Not really CGI like Blizzard or Square Enix use in trailers, as it does indeed use models and environments that are close to or often the same as what they'll look like on a maxed out PC, just enhanced by post production light and cinema effect tools.

It's really good and I can safely say it saved my life, but finding a good therapist is hard, and expensive.

It's also a very long process, don't expect immediate results.

I have.

Being Trans and wanting surgeries makes it nearly required.

Does it help? It can if you find someone you click with and you want to be helped.

For me it didn't, my rage and hate is nearly all consuming and I went and did it as a means to and end and what the therapist said didn't matter as I know full well to get what I wanted I needed to answer in a certain way.

Thankfully my case is unique and most humans are more balanced and more responsive to therapy given they find a good therapist.

I would certainly recommend giving it a go if you can find a LBGT friendly therapist.
