So I'm nearly 3 years on Estrogen DIY and put myself on the NHS Gender wait list at the same time ,(2y6m wait) Had my first video appointment a few weeks ago to explain history etc, and so I think the gist of the end of the conversation is IF i wasn't DIY they could probably get me on E soon but because I'm already DIY'ing a different team deals with the DIY'ers and Now I have a letter for my next video appointment and I thought "ooh that was quick" and then read the date .. in 2028 .. I can deal with the wait but an important note is that I have never had a blood test and honestly spent months trying to stabilise my mood and how I 'feel' (currently feeling good) so it's just a shame that they can't even prioritise getting me bloods done.. and in addition to the cost of estrogen I cant pay private to get them checked.

I'd be curious to know how quickly things moved for others from their 2nd video call, did bloods get done, was a prescription for E offered how long till getting a castration/vaginoplasty?

It always seems so unnatural when something is hot you instantly spit it out but here he holds it in. I really think Spaceballs is so well written, Is there a worse joke ?

Hot.. too Hot !

Personally I really want to buy a Synth-Piano but I need to stop spending big money on stuff I never use. My music taste is anything from 1984-1989, I bought FM8 to play DX7 roms and I like a lot of sound presets from Refx Nexus. u-he Diva is top of the sales chart on thomann (below 2 drum kits) and I'm tempted to get that but I'm curious what VST is your favourite (or do you prefer a Synth more?)

I've got some really great ideas for updating the classic resident evil formula and will explain how a Inventory box works :p

I love the classic Resident Evil games Re1, Re2, Re3 RE:CVX & Dino Crisis 1 & 2. I've spent hours analysing these games and the many RE Clones on steam, I like the fixed cameras and tank controls, the combat is hit or miss (literally and this is the main thing that turned me off Silent Hill) but at it's core they are like 'point n click' games, finding and using objects, puzzle solving etc.

For me the appeal of 'Classic Resident Evil' was the Sci-Fi (and cross-dressing) aspect but RE4 shifted down the 'Silent Hill' psychological "Ahh weird scary guy with a bag on his head" route. I have begun working on my own game and I have some really good ideas for how the gameplay could be improved, Capcom will never release another fixed camera/tank control game again but I'd love to hear what others wished could have been improved or elements from other games that would merge well with it ?

I understand that licencing music can cost thousands of dollars 'per track' As an Indie dev I'm sure that would be well out of my price range but I like the idea of doing a cover track which should be considerably cheaper.. failing that hiring a lesser known indie band sounds like a good option too, but I am curious if anyone here has done it for their game?

It seems that on every PC case these days totally ignore 3.5 bays and with SSD costing way too much I'd like to use x2 3.5 Hard Drives and x2 SSDs from my external bay into a main PC.

I want something large that doesn't require cramming all the cables and parts in tight spaces (I have a 4070 card).

Ideally one that comes with fans and upto a max of £400ish

One of my unfinished projects was to create a 3D model of Guybrush and after watching the Princess Bride I'm convinced that Cary Elwes was the reference for the close-ups of Guybrush.
