Hey girlies! I'm about to move house and will need to get my own desk, ahhh!!!

So recently found out that Ikea's not as sustainable as they claimed, happily sourcing from some of the last remaining old-growth forests, so we've agreed not to buy from them - cutting out 90% of the options I see on Reddit...

I looked around for motorised standing desks since I want the flexibility of adjusting the height to avoid bumping into the chair, and working in standing times in my day to day. But I can't seem to find a perfect one, either they're really masculine or they lack features and sturdiness.

I've currently resigned to the SecretLabs Magnus Pro in white, which seems really feature rich, but it's super expensive and still more ManGamers than GirlGamers!

So I was wondering if anyone have any suggestions in case I've missed any hidden gems?

I'm also planning on getting the Amethyst version of the Herman Miller Embody so I think a white desk will match best.

My backup plan is to look at second hand Ikea but I wouldn't have as many options depending on who's selling what.

Thank you!

I was scrolling through some Cyberpunk 2077 mods and found this garbage. It has over 6k downloads 🤮🤮🤮
For those who don't play Cyberpunk, Judy character is a lesbian and only available as a romance option for a female V. Yet, those disgusting perverts felt the need to 'straighten' her, and have 2 women who are in a relationship having sex with a man. Why does it always have to involve men?
And with TLOU2 coming that has a wlw couple that is Ellie and Dina, it is very likely that those sickos will strike again.

I know it's just a game but as a lesbian myself, it feels like our representation is solely there for the entertainment of men

I need better responses to “get back in the kitchen” or “make me a sandwich”. I used to just stay silent in the pass because I actually sucked but now I’m actually on top of leaderboards, I need better responses 😫✋🏼

hi all!! just as the title suggests, i've never played final fantasy, but i've been wanting to get into it, it's just a tiny bit overwhelming LOL

i have final fantasy vii on my list to start with, but i was wondering if playing xiv online would be very "difficult" to play? it looks so cool, but i don't want to be completely in the dark!

thanks in advance for the help <3

TLDR: girl in gaming discord server said my rated humour makes her uncomfortable, then said it is misogynistic and pick-me behaviour to like such jokes and no woman appreciates such jokes (but I literally have female friends who also like such stuff??) She said it was disappointing I like vtubers with lewd designs. Am I, are we, actually doing a bad thing by liking such jokes and stuff? ETA: I always ask if they're at least 18+ first so it doesn't get weird, and I don't force it on anyone if they say they are uncomfortable.

I decided to try my hand at finally joining a female-only Discord server a few months ago. Call me immature, but I like rated humor and sexual innuendo jokes. 😭 The few girls I played with were fine with it and even joined in joking around sometimes which is why I liked them. But a few weeks ago a few other girls decided to stack with us. And at the end of it, she later DM'd me saying I was making her uncomfortable with my perverted jokes.

Some examples: When I did a sick flick on the enemy in-game (by luck, not skill), and they say "fk you dude", I'll respond, "okay when and where?" or "I hope you enjoy looking up"... Or when I surprise dive into the enemy, they said "wtf you came at me so quick" and I'd say something like "sorry I couldn't help it" or "you were just too beautiful"

Anyway, you get the point... Fair enough, not everybody likes that kind of humour. I will just not do it if she ever comes around again, and I told that to her. But her response completely surprised me. She told me, no grown woman jokes like that and it's very immature. Then said, the other girls are probably uncomfortable too, but aren't confrontational enough to say it. (ETA: There was 5 of us: 2 of them jokes the same way, the other 1 just vibes with it/hasn't said anything about it, and the last one was the new girl we have never played with who decided to join. We warned her it can be chaotic. None of the jokes were directed to her. She was hearing it second handedly.)

She said I was displaying pick-me behaviour with such jokes. The thing is I don't only do that kind of jokes with guys, I also do it with girls eventhough I am strictly straight (I also always ask if they're 18+ first before saying anything. And obviously I respect it if they don't play along or they tell me to stop.) She also brought up how it was gross that I liked a lewd vtuber (idk if I can name her, but she is an orca-cat girl.) She said it was disappointing because it is such male behaviour to like such things, and I should be against them.

She said she was just letting me know that it can be misogynistic to be like this. Now I'm totally lost and am the one uncomfortable and awkward. Idk if the other girls were actually uncomfortable and didn't say anything this whole time... I'm thinking of just leaving the server silently, but I want to know if I'm actually doing something bad or not??

Hi there! I haven’t upgraded my current PC at all since I initially built it in 2014. My GPU is a 1070, for example. I’m trying to upgrade without breaking the bank.

The parts I have yet to get are the CPU, GPU, and mobo. I’m looking at the Ryzen 5 7600x, Radeon RX 7800xt, and MSI B650 gaming + wifi ATX AM5.

I did research and these seem like decent choices, but I’m open to any comments or suggestions. I’m 100% not getting an Intel CPU, as I’ve witnessed my friends personally have a lot of problems with them crashing with some games, particularly the more recent gens. (I’m aware Intel released a fix for these, but I have trust issues!) I’m less opposed to Nvidia for GPUs, but I also think they tend to be overpriced because of Big Name Company.

I'd love to see pictures of how you've decorated with figures or other memerobilia and kept things feminine. I just got a new apartment and I'm having a hard time with some of this decor and I'd love ideas! My old squall figure from when I was a teen is just in a cabinet right now because I don't know where to put him. Help me free him.

Hello! I really would like some help on this: I need a notebook for casual gaming, but I have no idea what to get because I'm a tech noob! I have recently moved to the US and left my desktop setup at home 🥲

What I play frequently: The Sims 4, Stardew valley, Minecraft, Valheim, cities skylines

I'm used to windows system

Sometimes BG3

My budget is from $500 to $900

I feel like it was ahead of it's time. If it came out now I bet it would do so well.

Been trying to find an actually good multiplayer game but alot of the options that are out rn just don't seem... good? Like a few that have been considered are:

Fallout 76, but I've played far too much of that game and it's more complex than what I'm looking for

Marvel Rivals, looks kinda gross tbh

Fortnite, this is tolerable but hasn't felt actually GOOD since there were UFOs

Helldivers 2, this feels very 50/50 on whether it's the perfect option or an absolute waste of $30 from everything I've heard about both the game and it's playerbase

What games have you been playing? Do you have any comments on the games I've listed? Do you believe Fallout 3 should get a remaster so I could just play that instead? These are all very valid and relevant questions frfr.

Hi everyone, I've lurked here for a couple years now and I suck at online interaction so forgive me for my awkward post.

My daughter (9) is an avid gamer and she and my partner have played Minecraft together for a number of years. I play with them a bit, but Minecraft isn't really my cuppa (I'm a BG/DA/ME kinda gal). Lately my girl's been very interested in playing online on a server. I spend zero time playing online with strangers (I only multiplayer with friends) and I'm very out of the loop on the "norms" if you will of online social interaction.

All of that said, I'm hoping some of you might have some recommendations of servers that are safer for kids to play on? Myself or my partner would be going on with her for the time being, but I'd like to try and find somewhere that she could possibly meet and interact with other gaming kiddos her age. (She currently does not have any friends that play Minecraft, so I can't set up a server of my own).

Any suggestions? Bonus points if you give me a few tips on what's expected on Minecraft servers (do we just join? I know a bit about Griefing, but are there other unspoken rules to be followed? How daunting.) and even bigger hats off if you/your family/your kids play on said server as well.

She currently plays Bedrock mostly as she prefers a controller, but for the right server I might possibly be able to drag her into mouse and keyboard land.

Thank you ladies, and thanks for the safe space to ask these questions!

I’m staring at “My Games” on my Xbox and I’ve logged so many hours into each game I’m bored and in need for a new one. I’m looking forward to Atomfall, but that feels like eternity.

Currently my top games are: Battlefield V, Borderlands 3, Call of Duty: BO6, Cities Skylines, Skyrim, Fall Guys, Fallout 3, 4, 76, and New Vegas, Hell Let Loose, Medieval Dynasty, The Oregon Trail, Road 96, Sea of Thieves, Civilization 6

Any and all recommendations are highly appreciated 🥰

I just bought new hardware so I can play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 when it's released in April. Nothing fancy, just replaced old mid-range with new mid-range parts.

Which game made you upgrade your PC the last time?

Hey all. I need a little bit of help, I’m looking to buy a monitor with a budget of about $100. Anyone know of a good quality monitor for that price? I’ve seen a few from Walmart and Best Buy around that price but don’t know what to choose.

I’ll be gaming in my dorm with my PlayStation and need something good. Thanks 🙂‍↕️

I want a PC like this so bad but have no experience building them or where to look 😭 can anyone help a girl out and give advice on where to find/look? tysm

The quiz was basically to discover which mythological creature matched your personality (one attempt per day, it even had a calendar to show all the results you got along the months). There was mermaid, vampire, orc, druid, fairy, and so goes on.. Then in the end of the test, you could play DressUp with all the options to mix and match the styles/hair/makeup I was almost sure that the developer was TricksterGames, because the artstyle was the same or pretty much similar, but after visiting their deviantart I saw nothing about this one.

A friend was living with me and moved out. She left me her PC because she couldn’t get it to work.

I have no idea what I’m even looking at or how to get it to work.

Is there any good websites, books or videos that I could look into to help teach myself?

I’m afraid if I go into some computer place they’re going to either laugh me out of there or overcharge me like crazy because I’m stupid.

I don’t even know what the parts that are in there are. I just want to play some Minecraft and sims 😭

my red dead redemption online character and one of the real life women who inspire me.

all i'll say about selika is that she was a parisian rider of the late 19th century. research her at story at will ☺️🥰

A lot of horror games streamers have popped up on my fyp lately and I love watching them so I finally downloaded Mortuary Assistant and I’m obsessed even though it gives me so much anxiety 💀

Are there any other horror games yall would recommend trying? I’m on PC

I know this can be a touchy subject, and an almost 100% subjective one at that. Humour in general, but black humour and comedy even more so, just because of how easy it is to slide from the quirky zone into the realm of the uncomfortable. Or just plain tasteless and cheap. It all depends a lot on the game and its setting and other factors too… But I want to hear your opinion, if you (like me) fancy a good dose of that dark funny in videogames, especially if it’s included in a really tasteful way that just, well makes sense.

First though, I have to vent about that one game that I absolutely hated watching my brother play, and hated its dark humour. I mean Postal 2, and yeah I get the basic idea of what the devs were trying to accomplish. But to me it always came across as unnerving and utterly creepy/triggering in some moments. Did NOT like that sort of black comedy/parody or whatever you wanna call it.

Next, a game that’s still among my all time favorites, VtM: Bloodlines. It’s a bit personal too because I spent my early 20s as an exchange student from Norway in LA and the game always makes me wax all nostalgic. It encapsulates all the good and the bad — all the sordid, under-the-rug rot beneath the city, but also the gleaming neon lights, and the MUSIC. My god, the music in that one Santa Monica nightclub is still what I hold responsible for being a classic goth up to now. And the humor is subtle, barely noticeable, but still there and there’s plenty of either as pastiche, cliche, or well – in how good some dialogues are all these years later.

I also like games that do the whole you’re the baddie thing (or are you???) but in a unique, ironic or just quirky way. Not the kind where it’s clear as day you’re just a baddie. So stuff like Cult of the Lamb (Happy Tree Friends anyone?) and say Binding of Isaac, where the humour is almost in the animations themselves  Or something like the upcoming Happy Bastards game which caught my eye, where it’s in the name that you’re a bastard who uses his party as tools for his own fame. Stuff like that, where the dark comedy is slightly more subtle, weird but positive, and just drips a kind of STYLE.

Ranted on long enough (sorry). But that’s my 2 cents on this. How do you all feel about black comedy, though? Do you think it too often leans into misogynistic tropes and needless violence in mainstream games? And is there a specific kind of dark humor you like? I’m curious what you all think

howdy hey, i’m looking for a new laptop because mine is now old (got it in 2018, wasn’t even a gaming laptop to begin with lol) and i can’t keep stealing my bf’s laptops to play my games. For reference i play baldurs gate, no mans sky, overwatch, and im waiting for the new monster hunter to drop! id like a decent graphics card, i think i can get away with 16gb ram but i dont think i can negotiate down 1TB of space. what laptop are yall playing on? Was it a recent purchase? How is it holding up? Thanks in advance! ✨

Just need some camaraderie lol and maybe some friends to play with. I’ve mostly solo grinded myself to Plat 3 in both S0 and S1 and man is it rough out there. In 80+ hours I’ve only run into one other feminine voice over comms. Half the time I’m just straight ignored by everyone else lol. I main cloak and dagger but I’m heavily trying to lean into vanguard with Thor and Magneto. Psylocke as my DPS backup. Anyway I’d love to hear your experiences, who you play, your rank, and all your problems with the game etc etc xoxoxo lol

Can’t find anyone interested in them or any community for fans of them?
