Hotel Dusk + Last Window are my favourite games of all time. Luckily I played them first and fell in love with them when I first got my DSi in 2010. I love literally everything about these games. It’s hard to find games with the same genre that are this mesmerising.

So I feel like a lot of you relate since this is a hoteldusk sub.

It would be interesting to know from your point of view what are your “other” special games (you can mention any game from any other console, and it doesn’t have to “strictly” be a visual novel type of game)

Edit:

We’ve already established that we like Another Code, Professor Layton and Phoenix Weight.

Ghost trick, Edith finch, firewatch, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Disco Elysium were already suggested, among others in the comments.

I’d appreciate if you reread the post and comments because your fav games shouldn’t be limited to the DS. There’s Playstation, Microsoft, and other Nintendo consoles.

Can’t help but feel bad when I remember I sold my wii console which I kept in perfect condition for years :(

I have a wii u though and it’s in perfect condition as well. Give me reasons why I shouldn’t feel awful if I still have a wii u?

I inItially wanted to post on the “benzodiazepines” sub lol. But felt to ask here instead.

For those that weren’t/aren’t taking it very often or weren’t/aren’t abusing it, does it still cause this?

I know that I’ve been affected by a certain med: Strattera/Atomoxetine. I noticed it dumbed me down in that department (it especially affected my writing). I was only on it for 3 months then quit it cold turkey because of this.

I now just take a stimulant “as needed”, but it causes severe clenching, even though my dose is considered low/average. When the clenching is unmanageable, I feel forced to take rivotril/clonazepam (1mg) to relieve it. I tried supplements like magnesium but nothing can truly relax my jaw muscles like a benzo. I have jaw issues and my doc told me that I should keep the clenching at bay.

Anyway I’m not sure if clonazepam now is causing this.

I want to know your personal experiences rather than what’s mentioned in medical literatures.

If it indeed caused you these symptoms, were you able to recover?

My primary phone is the friggin iPhone (I need it for work for the time being) my mobile sim is in the iPhone.

I’m thinking about getting a dumb-phone to use when I’m home + in weekends. As I’ll just need WiFi for whatsapp in case anyone calls/texts. (But I do want to add the sim in the near future hopefully when I’m iPhone-free)

Are dumb phones (that have WhatsApp) reliable in that aspect? I’d assume yes as the “link device” is a legitimate feature of whatsapp?

I’ve been lurking around and saw the few popular dumb phones here. To be honest I don’t mind the cost , as long as the dumb-phone is worth it and does its job.

Also I wonder how smoothly does WhatsApp run in dumb phones in general? Are some phones better than others?

Edit: thought to add more points about what I care about:

1. Battery life is extremely important, I don’t want to worry about the battery at all.

2. GPS/google maps for if I used the dumb phone as my main phone

3. Email: outlook, gmail

4. Alarm

What I don’t care about:

Idgaf about the camera

+ the Apple Pencil Pro.

I got them both for approximately $1,937 in total. Is that considered a good deal? I was offered a discount on each item on check out.

I feel maybe 1tb/16gb is overkill (wanted to settle for 512gb but worried I’d need the extra storage in the future) I only just received it a few days ago and haven’t done anything with it besides install procreate.

I am waiting to receive my paperlike screen protector and pen grip. I’m not so comfortable with the zugu case as it’s a bit heavy but I got it because I wanted to keep my ipad secure since I unboxed it. I want a lightweight case that’s comfortable for drawing, anyone tried the paper like bumper case?

I haven’t owned an iPad since almost two decades ago. I’ve just been using MBPs and iPhones.

What ways do you suggest I could use it to its full potential? I don’t intend for it to replace my MBP. But I want to make the best use of it and test its limits. Any must have apps you suggest having?

.

I know I want 11-inch and cellular, and preferably 1TB to get 16gb ram.

If i’m lowering to 512GB, then I’d go with M5 as it has at least 12gb ram.

Also for people who use heavy RAM apps, is 12gb ram doing ok?

Last time I owned an iPad was in 2010 or so, so I want this purchase to be worthwhile.

EDIT:

So i’m between 11-inch M5 cellular 512GB 12ram

Or

11-inch M5 cellular 1TB 16gb ram

I forgot it can harm facial skin. I put it on to relax my tensed facial muscles.

I noticed after a couple days that my skin looks dull and different (especially my cheeks). I can’t describe how it looks as I don’t have the right words but my skin looked clear and youthful before. I think the “pores” might have been affected?

I’m using a gentle cleanser now and moisturiser and some Vaseline to reverse any damage done.

Is there anything else I can do?

And is this serious or unrecoverable?

I’m not even a fan or follow him. You can be against transness and remain civil but these people are being unnecessarily mean especially on X/twitter. They keep reposting videos of him in “the odyssey” premiere and say awful shit. The thing is I’ve seen dozens of ftms online who pass as cis and look so much better than him, but it’s cuz he’s a “Hollywood actor” transphobes are using him as a reason to express their hate.

I want to hear from cis straight women.

I have two X chromosomes too so i’m not an intruder.

I’ve definitely had worse/more painful periods before. But I’m honestly so fucking tired and fed up dealing with fucking period cramps. I’m actually pissed rn I could cry. It’s Saturday night and I just wanna have a peaceful evening in bed but NO!!! Have to endure my stomach and back hurting like a bitch. And ibuprofen is somehow not even working. I hope all women go to heaven for enduring this bloody shitty fucking monthly process.

It doesn’t help that my cycle was about 30 days for a couple years now and since taking a few fucking ashwaganda pills like two months ago I’ve been getting my periods like a week earlier (i hope it reverts back to how it was cuz I don’t want to deal with this same shit “every couple weeks”).

I’m speaking very generally (e.g.: in relevance to where you live and transgender rights across the globe)

I personally live where there is no such thing as “transgender healthcare” or “gender-affirming healthcare”

So transitioning for me means moving to a different country where that is accessible. I haven’t completely ruled out that possibility. Because maybe, just “maybe”, that life is meant for me. So I’m not “pessimistic” about it, I just try to keep my feelings neutral.

But as for people who actually can begin this process. Do you ever worry about losing access to medically prescribed T? I personally wouldn’t want to start T and having it suddenly become “inaccessible/illegal” and be forced to detransition after having permanent changes happen to my body. Actually, the things that can revert back are the things that I’m truly dysphoric about, such as “fat redistribution”. That is the most thing that bothers me about my body right now. And having my voice be masculinised (like passable as male) “forever” while my body looks “female” because of fat re-redistribution with breasts no longer being there would be a nightmare. I would have preferred if fat redistribution was permanent and could deal with the other things reverting back.

There are meds you know will stay around forever, such as paracetamol. But who can guarantee that testosterone and oestrogen will always be available for transgender people even in countries that currently allow it?

Anyway, this thought always comes to my mind. And wondered if you felt the same.

I’m AFAB. I didn’t even know this sub existed 😧😦🫥🤯🤔🧐🤔🤔or that “MtFbutch” was a thing.

Anyway, I’m genuinely wondering, is that what some of you do? Or do you go full on E and still manage to keep that androgynous look because of genetics?

Asking as a 5’4/163cm person. (Pre T, but i’m curious)

I like to dress 100% masculinely. I can’t count the number of times I saw a shirt/t-shirt/jacket/blazer and was like 😍i want to wear this, then go to the fitting room and laugh at the tragedy lol.

But “some” pieces can fit me depending on the size. I also have a suit i bought from a men’s brand and it fit me (its size was a “slim fit”) but they had to tailor it to shorten the sleeves and pants. But unfortunately, just a little fat gain in my butt/hips can completely ruin the fit.

For those of you who have transitioned and achieved fat redistribution. what clothing pieces (from the men’s section) did you notice are easier to fit you now (without tailoring) compared to pre transitioning? Especially for dudes my height.
