  • Beat the misty forest on heroic in emberward, which is a “build your maze” style TD with slay the spire style progression and deck building.

    I’m also working my way through Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands as I wait for Hunt Showdown 2 and the new Helldivers update. I’m having a good time with Tiny Tina’s it’s the most polished borderlands has felt and the gunplay is satisfying. Heard there’s a roguelikte mode and the end of the story too, I’m looking forward to that















  • In addtion to what everyone else has said, this is from the Gender Dysphoria Bible - even if you’re right, someone can’t be told their trans, it’s an internal thing

    “ My good friend Lily coined the phrase “Egg Prime Directive” to describe the fact that trans people have an unspoken agreement not to tell people who are questioning their gender whether or not they are trans.

    When someone is just told they are trans, that opens ground for denial; it activates defense mechanisms built by internalized transphobia, and it has a high probability of pushing them further into the closet, if not making them outright transphobic. Even when it doesn’t, it leaves ground for their own subconscious to reject their dysphoria, claiming that they were just manipulated or deceived. The much more effective strategy is to talk about your own experiences with dysphoria so that they see the common grounds and come to their own conclusion about their gender. The code doesn’t forbid helping them to explore their gender; it forbids assigning a gender to them. Or, to put it more succinctly, you cannot be told what the Matrix is; you can only be shown”
