Why wouldn’t you just be bi? From the description you would have been attracted to both male and female partners so bi would be appropriate.

It does get easier on replay, even if you didn’t get very far. Restarting makes you realize how many of the game mechanics that you picked up and it makes it easier to progress. Completely understandable if you don’t have the time to commit to perfectly executing diagonal pogos until you can get the Hollow Knight adjacent crest.

While I appreciate that it works for your family, my education and skills are not compatible with that type of work. I literally don’t have the skills to pay my mortgage and hustle in self employment. The pivot would be more painful than the commute honestly, and have a much lower chance of success. I am glad that it works for you though.

Ugh I hate my commute. I feel like I was forced into it since I bought my home with the understanding that I would have a job with company A. They then sold my whole division right before my 2 year contract was up, and I had to scramble for a new job. I am grateful that I found a job with similar pay before my unemployment benefits ran out, but fuck I mourn the loss of my ability to WFH most days of the week. Some days it’s hard not to be bitter about what could have been if company A had their shit together!!!
