LGBTQIA+ |OT9| The Return of the Queen

damn, this sounds like me. I always put things off (*coughlikerespondingtopm'scough*) because I often have a hard time on concentrating on any one thing for too long. i need medication.

what kind of vitamins did they put you on
I'm on Concerta. It really is kind of a night-and-day thing, and I'm getting a lot of remarks about it from people that don't even know I'm on any meds at all. I'm kind of excited about what I can accomplish without it hindering me now.
Wow time sure flies when you're constantly depressed and accomplishing nothing with your life. I can't believe I've wasted almost my entire 25th year doing nothing and that I'm almost 26 and haven't even started my career.

Excuse me, I need to lie down

Everyone does things at a different pace. I'm 30 and in my eighth year of uni, but I don't let it get to me anymore. I just do things for me now, and not to "compete" with others. There's always going to be someone to be jealous of, but there's zero point in doing so -- unless you use it as fuel to try even harder. :)

I know I used to be worried about things constantly, but I was so self-defeatist that I rarely made any attempts to change things. But in recent times I've kind of re-evaluated and appreciate things a lot more now. Hell, even being able to sit down and read a book for hours without my eyes drooping the whole time is something I take a great amount of pleasure in.

If any of you, even lurkers, ever feel down and want someone to talk to, please feel free to reach out to me. I've gone through some dark times in my life -- and I will no doubt struggle with some in the future -- but if I can use that experience to help someone else, it'll make the issues I've dealt with even more purposeful.

I only just started my career job last year when I turned 30. I wasted my entire 20s in college and working mostly shitty part time jobs, but I got there eventually.

The same will happen to y'all if you work at it.

PS even with a career job, life is still pretty shitty for me, I just have a little more money.

I don't know even know what my career job is. Well, actually I do know... but I'm not really sure if I like it anymore.

As far as life... this sums it up:

Wanting to be cute or feminine like traits isn't really a sign of being Transgender.

Many men who are very happy being men like to be cute and have more traditional Feminine traits.

That said for those who do think they may be Transgender or are even wanting information on it we do have a Transgender thread here on Gaf with many amazing people who are very kind and happy to help.

So long as you avoid me you're good, I'm a crazy bitch so you don't want to take my thoughts seriously at all :)
This is from a few days ago, but I brought up the possibility because they specifically said they were jealous of women. I didn't really care about the cute part. And guys can be cute too.
This. Beth Cyra got it right.

I know for sure that I'm male, has nothing to do with being transgender. Just wish I was cute, hence why I envy ladies who are naturally cuter.
And why not be jealous of cute guys and wish you were them? Someone that specifically says they wish they were a cute woman, kind of sounds like repressed transgender-ish thoughts.

If it isn't too personal, may I ask if there are other related issues with your haptic (touch) perception, like knowing what an object is by touch alone?

Umm, I generally can't. It's one of my issues with PSVR - it can be tough for me to play games since I can't tell which button is which without being able to see the controller.

Like if you had a fever I couldn't feel that you were hot unless it was a really bad fever.

I also take things out of the oven without a towel or oven mits since i can usually take it out before i can really feel it. Has led to a few burns though lol.

Even though I live in the midwest, I rarely wear gloves since I am not outside long enough to really feel it usually.

It has also presented some problems romantically, since my hands are pretty dumb, so during activities I just feel clumsy.

Guys can be cute but men can be very much jealous of female traits or traits that are commonly associated with women and not be Transgender.

Trying to read into them possibly having Repressed Transgender thoughts is faulty at best and over looks several different factors.

Like Queen's, they love to dress up in female garb, wear make up and present as women yet are in no way Transgender and are very happy to be men.

There is simply no need to try and look deeper if a man says they are jealous of some cute girls and the way they look if that man is stating they are happy being male. If/when they have something deeper then they can address it.

Hmmm... my coworker is telling me I should date his friend (who used to be mycoworker too until he left earlier this year) and we're hanging out soon, but from what my current coworker has told me (about his friend), it seems his friend has a different idea or is probably thinking I'd be open to the idea (of dating).

I just don't find him attractive, and like him better as a friend, but we've been texting a lot and I hope he doesn't get the wrong impression. I just don't want to pull a cornburrito on this guy...

(jk Cornbro. :p)

I agree with you for the most part, but if they aren't expressing their femininity they are kind of repressed, but yeah I am looking deeper into it than I probably should be, but I just am asking questions.

Nothing wrong with questions.

Sorry if I came across as overly harsh, not my intent.

It's just I am Transgender (lol given my pic it would be hard to hide that :)) and have a lot of Queen friends and men who love female fashion and always complain about it (in positive ways) and they are in no way Trans so this is just one of those issues I end up debating a bit to harshly.

I apologize friend, nothing wrong with asking questions of course.

Sigh... this is why I don't like taking screenshots because the compression is so awful and doesn't do the game's justice as to how good it actually looks.

But yes, Horizon so far is my GOTY
 
the China based lesbian community app youtube channel just uploaded a 22 minute feature on Arina Isaacson and her life titled "Women voice be bold"
Man, as an artist and closeted lesbian this is so beautiful to me. Being yourself is such an important thing to me it saddens me I don't have more guts. I've lived half my life with crushing anxiety so I'm definitely no stranger when it comes to pushing myself to do things I'm terrified of, and yet when it comes to talking about this it just seems impossible to deal with. It doesn't help I have illnesses holding me back, they're hard enough to deal with as is. And it means I have to rely on my parents still and can't leave home, and they think gay people are messed up in the head for some reason. Also used to have big issues interacting with people at all but now have plenty of good friends in my life, even if mostly online, and yet there's still times this makes me feel painfully isolated.

Like I don't understand why keeping things quiet has such an impact on my mental state to begin with. It's not like if I come out to people I'm gonna suddenly become this super social person and start dating people. Worrying about this shit is making me more ill. Became more self-conscious lately too. I'm not even sure why I'm posting this when it just makes me feel sick and shaky, and I doubt I'll have the guts to post again. I guess I just dunno where to begin to deal with this mess and this seemed like an opportunity.

I admire y'all who have the courage to be yourselves.

It's from Facebook, not directly from the PS4, because I don't really give enough of a shit to do whatever it takes to get the original photo lol. nbd

Take a PNG (change the setting on PS4) and live

Horizon looks good and I'm glad to hear it's enjoyable.

I was already interested in Horizon but I'm holding off until I have both a pro -- I'm a PC guy first, so knowing I'm having an "inferior" experience bothers me more than it should -- and more disposable income. Plus, I want to eat away at my backlog for a while.

However, I saw a trailer recently and discovered that The God Crispin Freeman is the voice of someone in the game. My interest went up another couple of notches based on that alone, lol. If I could have sex with someone's voice, I'd do it with his in a second. Hell, he voices one of the original inspirations for my nickname: Alucard from Hellsing. <3

Speaking of Alucard, I've now completed Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and Mirror of Fate HD. I started Lords of Shadow 2 last night, and they go all in on the Symphony of the Night nostalgia right away, lol. Within the very first scene, there's a "What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets." followed shortly after by a "Die, monster! You don't belong in this world!"

I mean, I expected it, but I was hoping for a more subtle nod, like the use of "Vampire Killer" in the first game. But nope, LoS 2 just punches you in the face with it right off the bat, hahaha.

Get Horizon as soon as you can. Even on base PS4 it still looks amazing.

The best part about Horizon is that it also a great game apart from its visuals.

I remember with The Order 1886 every praise of its graphics were followed by complaints of how lame the gameplay was lol

Sitting in my favourite coffee shop and these two young women are talking about how "almost every girl in Brandon University is bisexual" and that they're all slutty, sleep with all of their friends etc. Ugh.

Edit: Then this very same person goes on to say that she misses being single sometimes because she enjoys "teasing" guys and knowingly stringing them along. Like, the "Friend Zone" is bullshit, but if you're intentionally giving a guy or girl false signals because it helps your ego, you might be a shitty person.

I just talked to an Air Force recruiter and I think I might join because 1) I have nothing going for me and then 2) the guy was hot as fuck.

It's safe to be gay now in the armed forces right?

PM Meicyn. He's currently in the army and could probably talk to you about his experiences.

This is such a special thing.

I have this, surrounded by a loving wife and children. yet I find myself wanting a career and to be away from home.

Shit is crazy guilt inducing, so I wish I had you're outlook.

I figured that's why you went silent for so long lol. I was lucky in that my first live was ep 16 so my backlog wasn't nearly as big. What ep are you up to?
Only a few eps in, I think I'll just read a summary tbh because it's way too much time to dedicate and I do wanna watch when they stream

Any PokeGaffers in here? I started a new file in Sun version the other day and I would love to exchange friendcodes.

Yes, fight me. I'll post or PM my code.

Edit: as for serving under Trump, yeah that's a big negative. But on the other hand, I'd have the potential to travel, have no living expenses, and it would basically guarantee a job for the rest of my life.

There's also like 1% of me that hopes some of the military porn scenarios turn out to be true lmao
