When I was born I had this rich tapestry of complications; http://www.rch.org.au/cardiology/parent_info/Transposition_of_the_Great_Arteries_with_VSD_and_Pulmonary_Stenosis/
basically, my great arteries went the wrong way (meaning no oxygenated blood flow throughout my body), the ventricles in...
big hole in my pulmonary valve from a previous open heart surgery I had when I was about 2-years old (that was an even bigger one, I tells ya hwhat), so blood was leaking out of the artery. I have a pig's valve in there, now! Oink oink.
Re: The Official Birthday Thread - UPCOMING B-DAYS - 4 - 24 - Zero - 31 - Toad85
Thanks! now where's my goddamned birthday cupcakes, ya bloody pikers?
also, obligatory:
Heeeey you'll be writing for both the Team Fortress 2 bugger, in that case. Remember that available sections aren't merely restricted to what's on the sign-up page; if you have your own cool idea you think would work well for Strategy Wing, then bring it up. We're always open to new ideas.
1)...
Well don't you worry, then; there are still plenty more plans left in store for Fun Stuff!
That's OK, there's always the holiday issue if you want to write for us! With any luck, you'll have a few ideas by then.
Also, to everyone whose managed to read the whole thing yet; what were the...
Spruced up a few things here and there, and also added a submission that got lost in the inbox; Lily's Random Sketch of a new character from Fire Emblem: Fates! Because it took a few days to get it up there, I'll post it here for everyone to see:
in my defense, marowak is a fookin bonehead and forgot to give me that one last image. Almost as aggravating as trying to find the last collectible in Banjo-Kazooie
also holy shit andymii's guess that game how is something able to even be that long
Fantastic news, so happy for all y'all lgb blokes in America.
Now if only Australia would get on that sweet rainbow wedding action, that'd be lovely. I think we're the only of the "major developed Western nations" that hasn't legalised it yet?
Re: What amiibos do you own?
I don't use amiibos for anything because I don't have the Wii U version of Smash, but I do collect the ones I think are cool. I have Ness, Captain Falcon, Wario, and Girl Inkling. Probably will get G&W because it's fucking G&W, man.
I find it funny how convenient it is that the "our expectations were too high!" excuse can always be wheeled out when Nintendo's conference is shit, but never when the other companies' conferences are shit
This is a new one, to be honest. I've seen all sorts of transphobic bullshit pulled out to "explain" why transfolk aren't their identified gender, but half-assed cultural naming conventions is a first.
Also the SMB2 instruction booklet came out almost 30 years ago, mate; attitudes and knowledge...
Arachnophobia and thalassophobia. I also suffer from general anxiety disorder, although I'm on medication to deal with that. No amount of medication in the world is going to cure me of the first two, tho.
I've had altercations with the primary suspect in the past, too. She's frequently made death threats to several of the cleaning and security staff here, so I wouldn't be surprised if she is the culprit. I hope the victim is alright... last I heard she was in critical condition
Asahi is wicked shit, but p. expensive down here. Beer is a social drink, tho; when I want to relax on my own, I get out the vodka and kahlua and mix myself a delicious white Russian, a la The Dude.
The Dude abides.

My lovely workplace...
Well I'm a transwoman so I've struggled with my body image for a long bloody time. Feeling far more comfortable since I've started hormone therapy, and I'm currently doing voice therapy as well, so all is slowly going well.
Your personal comfort is irrelevant when it comes to a transperson's preferred gender. It's BMB's duty, as a friend of DF, to refer to her by the pronouns she wishes to be referred as; in this case, she wants to be seen as a woman, so BMB should refer to her as "she" and "her". I don't care if...
Issue C is being released on my birthday and I'm so excited.
also Critic Corner getting back to its former glory, yo. Thanks to everyone who has been voting on the Critic Corner Section of the Month polls, it's great to see the sub-team getting attention from the readers again.

^"Instead of criticising what you think is poor game design, just ignore it! That's how you improve, after all; by completely ignoring all your shortcomings and dismissing all constructive feedback!"
^I like the Vita too, but unfortunately, it's safe to say it's a complete commercial failure. Such a shame.
I play PC most of the time anyway, but my favourite console overall is still the PlayStation 2. Fantastic work of art, that was.
Thanks everyone, but to SMG2Daisy, I'm sure you mean well for DragonFreak and I don't want to assume you're being rude, but no one really needs to look or be a certain way. How she chooses to express herself as a transwoman is entirely her choosing, and it may not be in line with how I choose to...
