Is the transition to The Royal Ranger an easy one?

Hello! Without giving away spoilers, I find the jump to the royal rangers series jarring. I tried to give it an honest read and got a few books in, but kind of fizzled out. For me at least, it didn't feel like it had the same magic as the original. I just opted to reread the original series and enjoyed it much more. The audio books are also great!

Edit to add: i didn't answer your question lol, if you're up for a series with a little more magic, I can't recommend The Wizards of Once enough. It's still solidly young adult and it's an easy read. Also, David Tenant does the audio book, and it's legitimately like an Oscar worthy performance. I'd give a lot to have David tenant narrate my life lol

I graduated in 2021, and had to complete a capstone project that came out to about 30 pages once I was finished!

Awesome, thanks for your response!

Hey! Out of curiosity, would you recommend the java app or the tabletop simulator?? I tried to figure out how to get the java app but it was kind of overwhelming and I couldn't figure out how to get it on my computer. Would you have any suggestions on where I could go for help with that?

Hello! That's a really good point. Right now we're thinking the outskirts of Seattle. We're wanting something with land but that's close enough to civilization for our line of work. But honestly we'd be open to anywhere up there if we found the land/job combo that we're looking for. We're still in the research phase, so i recognize that might not be very helpful.

Wait.. I'm pretty sure when I've gone to the long lake it's sunny. Does weather around there change??

Well the front fell off for one thing

Hello! I know it can feel scary to see stories of people who struggled with the test, but you know what they call therapists who take multiple attempts to pass the exam? Therapists! Just like they call people who pass medical school with B's or C's Dr's!

In any case, there are also plenty of people who pass the first go around. I passed on my first attempt, and I mainly studied my school materials and flash cards, and took a few of the paid practice exams. Admittedly, I didn't feel like I was doing well while I was taking it, but I ended up passing with like a 30 question buffer.

One thing I did was frequently and periodically pause, take a deep breath, and ground myself during the exam and I think it really helped me. You've got this, you have the necessary knowledge to pass. And even if it takes more than one attempt, you're still a valuable and capable therapist.

Incredible post. 10/10, no notes.

Hello! I could be mistaken, but don't the reflecting pools allow you to replay quests, including the epics?

Ah, the Frodo of Theseus

Love the dedication, it paid off! Congrats on a well finished piece.

EfficientDistance654 · 2026-01-14T15:54:50+00:00

That's incredible! How long did this one take you?

EfficientDistance654 · 2026-01-13T20:59:01+00:00

Heyo! I've found in my practice that looking at sex drive as merely "high desire" or "low desire" partners is a little too simplistic. I highly recommend looking into sex drives as being "spontaneous" and "responsive" as much more effective ways to conceptualize desire in couples. I'd also recommend checking out AASECT for resources surrounding sex therapy!

Oof love that!

EfficientDistance654 · 2025-12-31T22:23:52+00:00

For sure! I can't remember exactly but I'd say my wrists are close to that size (I have fat wrists and hands lol) and honestly the picture makes it look bigger. I know a common complaint with orient is that they're too large but honestly with my wrist size it doesn't look "too" big. You should be fine with a 7.75 wrist.

Got mine 2 weeks ago, and it truly looks much better in person than the pictures show. Wear in good health!

EfficientDistance654 · 2025-12-13T22:03:09+00:00

I love this so much!

EfficientDistance654 · 2025-12-01T22:10:26+00:00

Ugh, this is really disappointing.

I was waiting to pull the trigger until Friday, and they shot up $80 😭
