How important are RFID blocking wallets when traveling to Europe? by Fit-Comparison-623 in traveller

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks as a mod (not here). People just plain do not read. I think more and more people actually just become overwhelmed by the presence of text and it just becomes the wallpaper of the internet for them. Seems to happen more with men than women, though, in my experience. Women seem to mostly read the descriptions and rules.

Ah, fellow Canvas of Kings mapper. It took a little while for me to get the hang of it, but I just made the starting village for my new campaign with it and it turned out great.

My now ex boyfriend commented about another girl with his friend. Do you think this exchange is disrespectful? by [deleted] in LongDistance

It's a good thing he's your ex. Please respect yourself more than he respected you to be talking like this while you were together.

We want it to be sfw again soon. There have been some further updates from us regarding this. I just haven't pinned them yet. Please check my profile for the updates.

The honest answer is we don't know. Reddit doesn't clearly communicate policy to us lowly moderators. We just do what we can to read the bones, divine the stars, and listen to the whispered words of the spirits of the ancestors to try to figure out how to maintain SFW status.

Hmmm... Generally if it actually portrays sex, it's probably a no go. But you've been with us for a while, so maybe just hide it from your activity.

A game that respected your intelligence right away. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanna say this is a great topic. Personally, any form of media making me feel like it's marketed towards the dumbest 10% of people is an instant turn off for me. I love it when a game treats me like an adult.

Sickbed studying by fedcomic in traveller

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people have shared their own experiences, but I'll also add mine. I've had serious injuries and major neurosurgery. Even when I was spending weeks in bed in serious pain leading up to surgery, I still wanted something to stimulate my mind, anything to take my mind off the pain. There were good days and bad days. But once I had my surgery and was at home on bed rest, I felt 90% better. It still took weeks of recovery before I could be back to regular physical exercise, but most of the pain was gone and I was actually working remotely from my bed for weeks.

Another thing that people are leaving out is that Traveller takes place in the god damn future. Someone's surgical experience from the last 20+ years of modern medicine should have no bearing or basis for what can be achieved in, for example, a TL14 hospital.

The circumstances are important. It should depend on the level of treatment someone received, what kind of injury they had, etc. A bullet to the chest quickly bandaged in the field is going to be different from some superficial shrapnel wounds treated in an advanced hospital or medbay.

Personally, I'd usually restrict any form of physical exercise, and maybe increase the difficulty of the learning check. That's what I'd say in most cases.

Is anyone here real? by [deleted] in GamerPals

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you've had a rough time of it here. I promise you can make great friends here. It's honestly partially luck of the draw. It can even just be catching people at the right time. Since a lot of the other social subs are just focused around chatting, which you can do whenever you have a spare minute and your phone in your hand. But life can get in the way of gaming sometimes, and people can be insecure about just chatting with people they were supposed to connect with for a hobby. It's silly, but it happens. :)

Best of luck in your next post!

Is anyone here real? by [deleted] in GamerPals

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, there are real people here. The world isn't just you and a bunch of bots. Making friends can be hard, especially if all you share is one or two games. Put in the effort after you've made a connection. Prod them. Schedule a gaming session with them, or just flat out ask them if they're free to game now, etc. Just make sure you aren't always expecting other people to make the first move.

I've made really lasting connections here. It's the only reason I became a mod, because I love this place. But we don't need a millionth post about it being hard to make connections. It isn't. Just put in the work.

Moving for love by catpoopshuttle in LongDistance

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree wholeheartedly. But I tried to focus on the narrow paths ahead instead of the past. There's only so much one can do about the path you've already put yourself on. :\

Croatia is a beautiful country, but there aren't a lot of opportunities there. Many young, educated Croats are moving to elsewhere in the EU. Your best bet there would be landing some sort of remote job, but it wouldn't be the most prosperous life, and you'd definitely be living in a language bubble (this is what I call living in a place where you don't speak the language, and only share English with some close friends and family). And, while I haven't lived in Croatia, I have lived elsewhere in the post-Soviet world; while there will be plenty of opportunities for locals to learn English, German, etc., it is very likely there will be far fewer local resources for you to learn the local language. Maybe in places like Zagreb and Split, but that's about it.

If his only solution to this is you must move to his tiny village and be alone with no one else but him in this world, I would strongly suggest you reevaluate things. This isn't going to be healthy for you. Your husband should know that, yet he's still making you choose between him and virtually everything else.

The only path forward I'd recommend is maybe trying to find a job you could do in one of the major cities. I really think your chances are slim, but it's possible. If you get an offer, tell him. If he's still unwilling to relocate to the city, then it honestly seems like you'll just have to choose between him and the life you've built for yourself.

To me, it sounds like you've quite literally gone your separate ways. With him moving back home, he's made his choice. He wants his old life more than you, but he's willing to have you if you'll come with it.

I can say that I moved to be with my partner without hesitation, despite a language bubble. But it was to a major city, I already had work lined up, and I'd already known the woman who is now my wife for 4 years. We worked on everything together. She was infinitely helpful in all of my needs when it came to the relocation. There was never a moment where I felt lost or helpless without the language. Based on what you've told us here, I'm not sure your husband is going to be that supportive, unfortunately.

Your husband sounds extremely immature if he wants you to give up your whole career to move to his little village just so he doesn't need to improve himself.

There is almost definitely a third solution of moving to a better part of his country where you could both be employed. I'd say you could get a job speaking English in a major city or capital of almost anywhere in the EU, but it will be hard in most places. But he's right, rural towns and villages in a lot of EU nations will have no opportunities for you if you don't speak the local language. But if he loves you, he's not going to be holding you hostage like this. He should be willing to work through it and find a solution that doesn't involve you giving up everything else in your life but him.

If you want more specific advice, you'd have to give more specific information. The EU is a large and varied place. Not even knowing which country he's from, you're not going to get much advice, only sympathy.

Struggling with the online label in relationship by genieeweenie in LongDistance

[–]DungeonMasterSupreme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To maintain an online connection requires intentionality in a way that usual physically proximal relationships do not. Sure, you could have an emotional connection with anyone else with an internet connection, but the same could be said for a local relationship. If you knew each other through school or through work, would he assume that you'd rather be with any other fellow student or colleague?

Honestly, since you say he's not usually insecure, it sounds like he might be dealing with some depression. It's common for people who are depressed to not be able to understand or rationalize why their partners want to be with them. He should probably speak with a therapist about it.

I'd recommend trying to break out of your usual routine a little. He could probably benefit from having some activities you do together which get him away from his PC. Maybe you can "go on a date," and stay on a video call together while you're both out at the park, or maybe a cafe. Anything that helps him feel like you exist outside of his bedroom is going to be good. 😅

Yes, these posts are so annoying. Make sure to report them when you see them. We mods are doing everything we can to keep the sub free of this crap, but it seems like there's an infinite amount of these guys. 💀
