For me, what helped initially was not to focus on whether I was trans or not, but on specific questions like whether I wanted to start HRT.

Because when I read the list of changes it caused, none of them seemed bad, and many seemed really desirable!

That helped reduce my dilemma from a complicated question of "identity" ("Am I trans? Am I nonbinary?" etc), to a more specific choice I could proceed with.

Sadly at work force pushing just isn't an option, so I've just learned to ignore my deadname. There's apparently some way to use .mailmap to swap out the way your name/email displays, but github doesn't respect it in any case. :|

I do mostly update old JIRA/Confluence references as I run into them. I also make a habit of referring to others by their @handle references, since that will update automatically if they ever change their name.

less painful,

I actually found laser way, waaaay more painful -- and that was with more than half my hairs turned white already. Electro was just a bunch of tiny pokes, while laser felt like someone repeatedly punching me in the face.

That said, I'd still choose laser over electro if I could have, since it's just easier/less hassle. (Quicker results, fewer treatments, my skin seemed to heal from it faster, etc).

As romcom misunderstandings go, at least the one in this episode didn't feel too contrived.

I still hate it, though! :)

I think it probably makes more sense to simply post about the game in a general community! (i.e. this one). If there's a lot of involvement, then you can consider splitting off.
