    You’re a 4X? Explore, Expand, Exploit and Exterminate? Gender is wild nowadays.

      So, I’ve let this digest a bit.

      I do really like 4X games, especially Stellaris, it is very fun.

      On the other hand, I don’t know if people are gonna think I’m a total loser here but, seriously? You know what I meant, and it really feels like you are being trivializing and demeaning. Maybe you are just making light of stuff. But it really just feels like u are making a helicopter joke, and if you are, just leave me alone.

            Correction, because obviously “problem” should have been plural in my reply. 🙄

              I admitted in my reply you may have been making a joke and I may be taking things wrong, even though the connotations are there for me to plainly see, giving you a chance to simply reach out and clarify. You are escalating here, cursing at me and telling me I have problems when I’m just calmly reacting to what I saw as your subtle “light” transphobic joke.

              Edit: And why not, I’ll answer your question, what are my problems? I’m tired, stressed, overworked, underpaid, exploited, hated, feeling unloved, dealing with dysphoria and dysmorphia, stuck in place, stuck in a body that makes me cry, in pain, worried, at the end of my rope.

              And I usually get through it with a smile, I stay positive, I look forward. However many things are going wrong in my life at the moment and I am really struggling.
