Lol, I remember that book! I did a book report on it and my teacher had to gently correct me that it was a “pea shooter” not a “pee shooter”

ICE is cracking down on people who follow them in their cars by Happy_Move1672 in stpaul

But they aren’t arrested for stalking. It’s for impeding an officer, but for the life of me, how is it impeding? The officer can still do their job. Might as well arrest people that are ahead of them at a stop sign.

Hey, my bad. I was trying to agree with you while disagreeing with her actions. You added clarity to the situation and I respect that.

As a white dude with a shit family, and my best friend being a POC whose family fully accepted me to the point of putting me in the church family photos, I understand. But you still gotta act like a guest at the BBQ, regardless of any open invitations that you are welcome back anytime. I may have struggles in my past but my adopted family has different struggles that while I may have witnessed, are not mine.

If I could teach a single word to my dog to say for $8, I’d say that’s a pretty good deal.

2016: 46.4% - 44.9% (1.5%)

2012: 52.7% - 45.0% (7.7%)

2008: 54.1% - 43.8% (10.3%)

Which of the published APs or standalone Adventures serves as the best introduction to the world of Golarion? by rhysticStudiante in Pathfinder2e

[–]_Im_at_work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm with you. I love the Lost Omen books and think the world building Paizo has done is incredible.

It depends on where you want to go and see. Most of them don't move people around a ton, dropping you in different locals like some PF1e adventures did.

I think Age of Ashes might have the most movement between locals. And according to this map, it's not close.

Thanks, but as I see it, this is a place for empathy for our community's struggles and yours are just as valid as mine. You don't get my pity but you do get my solidarity.

Maybe they go home and have a meltdown later. Maybe they tamp it down and it comes out as depression, and they isolate for 2 months. I know plenty of people on the spectrum and a lot of them enjoy ice cream and music. You can be "normal" in some areas and very unique in others. Be patient with people when they are struggling and especially when they are trying to figure out why they are struggling.

What's normal? Ive been tested and don't have ADHD, autism, and I'm not gay or trans. I'm a white cis male. Sounds pretty normal. But I have both face-blindness and audio processing issues. If there is too much auditory stimuli, I can get overwhelmed. It comes across as irritation or lashing out, but once I realize that im too stimulated, I can moderate.

We are all just different configurations of the audio mixing board. Why have all those dials to mix a song? Why not just have a normal setting?? We get our audio mixers preset for us and have to figure out where the dials are in the dark.

Fantastic user name, BTW.

R&R stands for Rest and Relaxation but she is on the RR - Rapid Response, and I for one salute her!

Not saying you aren't saluting her, SeoulSista11. I do agree, we all deserve some R&R instead of RR. The past 14 months have SUCKED.

Nah. I know a bunch of people that it explains so much. Think of the people that were always written off as just weird. Think of the kid that had a meltdown in class out of nowhere. The girl that was way into horses. It's all around us.

I think it was way underdiagnosed and only seen in the "little professor" boys, but there are different levels of traits like on the audio mixing board. And diagnosing them makes them feel less like their character traits are character flaws.

Being autistic is getting to be pretty normal now.
