    Hi thread. I'm still not too sure what I am, except definitely maybe probably not 100% cishet. Most recent theory is a homogenous grey goo squeezed into the skin of a human.

    What is my gender? A miserable little pile of secrets!

    So like queer/NB/like that?

    Sure. I guess.

    Without giving too much deets cause it's very personal developments, I think I might be closer to demisexuality than asexuality, if i'm not just straight up het with weird issues with sex.

    And, like, I know it's silly, but I kind of fear being cishet. Maybe it's because i internalized my asexuality a lot without really challenging it? Maybe it's because for much of my life, I've seen myself as different?

    Anyway, that's what i'm struggling with right now.

    As a cishet, the worst* thing about us is our lack of perspective - I'm constantly lurking in here to try to improve. If you do turn out to be cishet, you'll be roughly fifty billion steps ahead of the rest of us just by being aware that things aren't

    *From my cishet perspective, obviously, but I think that most of my toxic attitudes got expunged once I started considering the experiences of other people

    The thing that surprised me when I started reading these threads was how much a lot of issues I read about here are relatable to my Crohn's issues/experiences.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    I had my hair in braids both days this weekend! Didn't have any shitty comments from anyone or anything. It's so convenient for keeping it out of the way

    The bad hair comes back in force when it comes out of braids, though.

    I'm not seeing what's bad about that hair

  • EasilyAmusedEasilyAmused Registered User regular
    Doing quite a bit better now. Was fairly nervous with visiting and wanting to finally come out to my dad and my brother. Not that I really thought there would be a bad reaction, but those fears are always there at the back of my mind.

    But everything is good now, and I’m so relieved to finally have that weight off my shoulders.

    Hope everyone else’s day is going good as well.

    I'm also autistic and hyper aware of the emotions of people around me, though I usually come across as completely oblivious to everything.

    It has been pretty nice to sit down this weekend and put all this free time into making things in zquest. Week was too busy to really have a big block of time to commit to it.
    I finally got to a point where I have a room layout for the interior of level 4 of my custom quest. It has been pretty tough because I just kind of sketched it from the outside without a solid idea of what the shape of the inside would be, and it ended up being a strange shape that does not lend itself to connecting rectangular screens at all. I'm mostly working on tiles for it now, and next will probably be determining what each room is for and putting in the more important features.
    This level has already been a lot of work, too - it has its own 8x8 screen exterior map before you even get inside. I'll probably be able to connect to another thing from that map later though.

    Also I am really looking forward to being done forever with this blasted chamber, fucking treating me like a gofer.
    Still waiting on any kind of progress on prescription refills as well. Spent like an hour making calls on Friday to try to sort it out and still don't know where I stand.

    Hi new thread! I'm Scott and when I was 4 years old I saw Labyrinth for the first time and had a dream that I was getting married to David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly both at the same time but then I spent 30 years telling myself THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING SHUT UP and now I'm a grouchy old man who sometimes feels like I'm bi/pan more as a political statement than a thing I could ever really act on because I am out to exactly two members of my actual family but I've left "I'M QUEER AND I'M MAD" messages on the voicemail systems of every politician in Utah.

    I know how to punctuate, but sometimes one feels the need to write something in the style of someone who has just rushed to get it all out in a single breath.

    Realizing lately that I don't really trust or respect basically any of the moderators here. So, good luck with life, friends! Hit me up on Twitter @DesertLeviathan

    Hey QUILTBAGs, I finished writing an early draft of my 2nd erotica just a little while ago this morning.

    This one came out soooooooooooo good. omfg. I'm so happy with how it came out. :tell_me_more:

    I still need to go back and re-draft the last half of my first one, though. I'll get there sooner or later. >_>

    Also! I've decided that major characters in my works will be, as a rule, predominantly bisexuals.

    Because I say so. :bzz:

    Glad it's going well! I don't have writing as a creative outlet, but I started making my rpg characters female, and then made my most recent one an old trans lady looking to overthrow the government because they basically nullified her marriage and deported her wife and kid and it's a lot of fun to be able to stick it to the Man, even virtually

  • credeikicredeiki Registered User regular
    I've always had both male and female characters for roleplaying and I think the next one is going to be female

    the gm for my last game had this attitude of oh it must be very important to you to have a male character and it was kind of like... ummmm no it's just normal...let's just move on...

    this next character has to be female because she's going to be an air genasi, and in order to maximize that aesthetic you have to wear a lot of flowy layered scarves and skirts, obviously, like what would a male air genasi even wear (assuming peopel are wearing more or less gender-conforming clothes that is), certainly nothing that looks that cool

    the only character I ever made whose gender was really *important* to me was my blades character who had the same gender presentation and feelings that I do, and who was partially being used as a low-key way to get my friends to get exposure to the use of they pronouns. That worked out ok I think!

    Me and @Amara_P have one going where we play ourselves, but got sucked into an online game and are stuck playing as our in-game characters.

    It's been so much fun, I commissioned someone to draw our game characters.
