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.

That's very interesting and not all bad. :)

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.

I don't see being myself as courage, I just know I'm lucky I can't be anything but myself no matter the negatives. I don't even understand stress

I'm beginning a 4.5 day weekend which will see the release of Atelier Firis (which I only realised was coming so soon yesterday) and Nier: Automata, and I began this time off with a Nando's
mushroom
burger and vanilla coke.

So basically things are good.

The only thing cheeky about Nando's is how much they overprice their stuff.
Click to expand...
It is expensive, like just over twice the cost of a large KFC combo for a large Nando's meal (burger, chips and drink), but it is more than twice as good. Like it is at least three times as good! Probably five!

For a few years, I would have KFC a couple of times a week and it was a problem for me. I would get it when I didn't even want it, like I already ate but was just passing one. Now I don't have it anymore and have Nando's once a week or second week instead.

A good way to save money with it is get it take away and have your own drink. I don't usually do that though.

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

only 1%

are you even gay

I find it so hard to just get shit done. I start thinking about all the stuff I've piled up and I start freaking out and panicking....and let more stuff pile up until the last minute. I really need to learn to get my shit together.

I guess it depends on each person's circumstances, but I wish I could think like that. Though this made me realise maybe my real issue is I care too much what others think of me. I should work on that.

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.

No it's okay! It ain't a problem!

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

Gameplay>Graphics... because gameplay is forever and graphics are temporary before something else comes along.

I have struggled with this too. Basically, instead of solving problems, I try to create a system that would solve for a problem rather than just solving the problem. it's like if a game dev made a unique OS for every individual game. You gotta trust that you as the Blood Diamonds OS, can handle everything. Just do one thing at a time instead of worrying about everything you have to do. it's a hard change that I still struggle with.

In the words of the departed Prophetess @horse_ebooks, "You allow yourself to think these thoughts and then you start freaking"

I am so excited! Yet I know the 1170 will be priced at ~350 USD and will be faster than the 1080 ti in like 5-8 months from now.

Bookmark this post, lol

Limited time + wanting to buy other things + big backlog = Spending $300+ for a Switch and one game is not a priority.

I think I'd rather just buy it later when their is a bigger library.
Click to expand...

I mean i get that if the only game you'll ever get on Switch is Zelda. I don't really mind that being the one big game since more are coming and I also have a backlog going back to original DS that I still need to play. Never gonna run out of games.

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?
Click to expand...
I'm openly gay and the coworker right next to me is a lesbian. There are douchebags in the military who may snigger behind your back, but if you're worried about being assaulted, your risk is significantly higher in the civilian world than on a military installation.

Also worth noting, transgender training is underway since most military folks have little to no experience with transgender individuals. The military has been slow to adapt, but now that we can serve openly, there's no way to revert back no matter what President is elected. All the claims about military readiness being impacted turned out to be bullshit as expected.

The military isn't for everyone, but I love it. You get opportunities and experiences that no one else gets, for better or worse. I just finished a year long tour in South Korea and am building another house in Florida. If your life seems to lack purpose, you'll find it in the military; some stay in for a full career like me while others use it as a stepping stone towards something else. If you want more info about the Air Force, let me know. I had no sense of direction and didn't know what I wanted until after I joined.

My 1070 still holding in there! I'll be sad when it's no longer put into these comparisons, lol. Any idea if this is with HairWorks on? It seems that it's a major framerate killer, and I think it makes the human hair look worse. If I could enable it on just fur, I would. I know there's a mod for that, but I can't be arsed. :p
