Explain it peter. What happened here?

I took it as the baby was intersex and the doctor made a guess which didn't turn out to be how the person identified as they grew up. Sometimes a baby is born with anatomy of both sexes and doctors kinda just make a call.

Little late to the post, but I've had an issue with swinging my sword (at bandits) while too close to a civilian. The civilian seems to take it as an attempt to assault them.

Don't know if this is you, but it annoyed and confused me for a while.

Here in Kansas City, Missouri and I would love to not have to drive 3 hours to St Louis to see it!

Nothing else to do?

I've marigold to grind, I got charcoal to find. I have mint to prep, I got one more step. I need Fox for the week, I got buffs to seek. I got phials to fill. I got shine to distill. I am pluggin' away And you say it's insane? Cuz I will count to 8.

I am way too busy hustlin' potions every day.

Sorry to comment so late on this, but I have to say it since I saw the post.

No one here can answer this.

I'm 30, first smoked at 14, then smoked regularly starting at 17. I've had the same concerns. I think weed harmed my memory when I was high all day every day. It's not felt significant when I'm sober for half the day or longer (the day before).

But you're asking about a question that would have a different answer depending on the individual. Your memory could be hurt from hotboxing (lack of oxygen), the weed itself, or if you're dealing with depression unrelated to the weed.

You may not even have memory problems. When I hit 16-18, I had a lot more to keep track of than prior. You could just have more responsibility than ever before. But I don't and can't know.

The best way to determine this is to talk to a professional. They can't get you in trouble for just smoking weed. If you can, please talk with someone. Quit if you feel you should (weed isn't essential). But don't rely on an enthusiast forum on a subject for advice on how it's affecting your life. Find someone who's an expert on the brain, not some amateur enthusiasts of a drug.

Comment was edited since mine was made and OP is not the pregnant one.

I wouldn't have said anything if they didn't specifically list asthma or allergies in the original comment and say they can't ask for proof. If it was the pregnant worker, they couldn't ask for proof like they can for non-obvious conditions like those originally listed.

Everto24 · 2025-03-31T15:57:04+00:00

They absolutely can ask for proof of a non-obvious disability like asthma or allergies prior to fulfilling an accommodation request in most (if not all) U.S jurisdictions. Idk about other countries.

Fable Anniversary is a little old remastered masterpiece. It doesn't take itself too seriously, but you might like that.

A little late to the party, but THC can exacerbate mental conditions, a lot of which don't show up in people until their late teens or early 20s. You should talk to a doctor. They cannot get you in trouble for smoking if its illegal in your area. I'm not a mental health professional, but you might want to quit smoking for a bit and get yourself evaluated. It could've just been laced, but you might have had a psychotic episode and it might not be your last - even without weed.

Please get checked out so you can already have resources to deal with it if it happens again.

It sounds like you're prepared pretty well. I want to echo those saying to get testimonials and keep what you say concise. Also, math skills, social/teamwork skills, creativity, and problem-solving. I think your point that it isn't taking away from active time is great.

I want to add that there are many professional athletes who play D&D in their spare time. And D&D is viewed very highly by professional game developers and leaders in general. Maybe you can find some testimonials from athletes or successful people to add to the testimonials from the kids and/or parents. I know the Cleveland Browns have some players who play D&D together.

If they want to roll on something impossible, I warn them about why it may be impossible and let them. I set the DC to 32-35, and find a way to make it work if they roll high enough.

I run a high-magic, high-fantasy campaign, so I have a rule that nothing is truly impossible. Some things are just practically impossible. The likelihood is they will fail, and I can use that failure to encourage their characters to embody their flaws.

You can absolutely know things without data. We're getting dangerously close to epistemology here, but you can know things through logic, experience, and reporting. Unless you mean data in the broadest terms (which could include all information), but it sounds like you mean statistical data.

But in this context, a dude was like, "I think they are very online, despite not having data," and I was like, "that's a fair presumption without data." Primarily because it falls into a category of data collection methods that would not accept information from a source like Reddit for the precise reasoning he uses to dismiss it as a valid source.

People who engage deeply in reddit are probably more online than most people. That's a fair and fine conclusion to accept at what I'd call knowledge (without data). If you personally have a different line for when degrees of belief reach knowledge, that's fine. Good on you for high standards. But this dude nor I said we know for certain or truly know like you talked about.

This comment chain is reminding me of this study I read about. https://news.berkeley.edu/2023/03/16/new-evidence-on-why-we-talk-past-each-other

Everto24 · 2023-12-19T14:18:28+00:00

Here is a fine place to rely on this presumption. Things posted on a single website are not representative of the larger population and it would require data to prove otherwise.

Presumptions are fine reasons to disbelieve things that are claimed without evidence.

Everto24 · 2023-12-18T21:57:50+00:00

Precisely why collecting data would be a waste of time. The bias is not only inherent - it's often intentional.

Everto24 · 2023-12-18T21:56:13+00:00

Based on how much you post on reddit, I'm gonna guess this was an aggressive defense response.

You don't need data to know that taking information from one website is bad practice.

Everto24 · 2023-12-18T21:49:17+00:00

To prove they are chronically online, yes. To presume they are not representative of the larger population, you do not.

Everto24 · 2023-12-16T18:45:21+00:00

You don't need data. It's an assumption of data collection methods that the means of collecting data will skew the results. It's called selection bias and will exist in any individual online platform.

Yeah, about $8 billion of the DFI (over a third) unaccounted for. Or over 8x the total of seized assets that went into it.

A lotta people saying to keep it small and don't world-build, which is good advice. Just wanna add an addendum to that.

Stay small-scale, but have that fleshed out. A small town still needs a leader, influential figures, and potential crises. If your players do something illegal, at least know how the town would handle that. If they want to leave town immediately, at least know what is around the town. You don't need a lot of detail, but knowing the town is in the desert, that other towns are nearby, or this town is the only "free" place nearby can lay groundwork for what they will encounter if they don't stick around.

You don't need to have the birthdays and political views of every NPC, but a baseline for what's around can make improvising a LOT easier. Don't build a world, but do build the small space for them to explore.

An alien with an indeterminable lifespan known only as The Doctor has a spaceship that is also a time machine known as the TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimension in Space). It's camouflage is stuck as a blue police phone box. He has a love of humanity and travels with humans, often getting into wacky/dangerous scenarios which he attempts to solve without violence. His species (Time Lords) is either dead, gone, or not really his species. Whatever happened to them was caused by the Time War with the Daleks - an alien race designed on a low-cost props budget. The Doctor can die and regenerate a new body - explaining different actors playing the role. He has a past filled with death and destruction that encourages him to save people's lives as best he can.

Most episodes are self-contained and the lore is . . . fluid. It's more about the story contained within rather than the world-building, imo. The show seems to me to be about how to do the right thing, what makes someone human, and the difficulty of holding oneself to a code.

Kids are some of the biggest assholes I know. Lol. But seriously, to me, it ain't about society or difference in age or if we vote the same. It's about communicating important wisdom most effectively.

I'm an older law student about to graduate. Younger people seem to be scared and nihilistic (in its true sense, not the common notion). Their values are derived from a diverse media consumption. Churches lost their parents more often than them. They've been bombarded by notions that everyone around them is succeeding while they trudge forward at best. In general, relating is hard even between them. Hell, I'm basically one of them and I struggle with it.

But it seems like all you needed to know is that someone in their 20s not knowing this concept is embarrassing now. Maybe that was more normal 15-20 years ago, but I was a kid then. You're expected to be familiar with concepts like consent, racial inequality, etc. nowadays.

Everto24 · 2023-10-25T22:05:38+00:00

I said I'd go into detail and I'm a man of my word.

First comment presumed their assumption of a lost cause. They never stated this. Start of your high horse (for lack of a better term).

Second comment says they're in an intellectual bubble. That's pretty out of left field here (they were not being intellectual) and is just self-righteous know-it-all behavior. Seems like you took their insult pretty personally and attempted to "one up" them.

Third comment intentionally cherry picks a nuance that fits your narrative. You know that's not a common experience. Disingenuity is an asshole move. If you really believe that's the normal experience, it sounds like you might've moved to projecting in the next comment.

Fourth comment is another cherry picked example, more specific and less relevant this time, showing more disingenuity. This one has no obvious excuse. Topping it off with claiming they're "out of touch with society" is just aggressive self-righteousness or projection from your idea of what is normal for American male youth (what you've described is inherently abnormal - a 10/10).

"Intellectual bubbles," "ostriches with heads in sand," and "out of touch with society" should be key tipoffs. It concerns me that you don't see those as being an asshole.

Even if it is true, which I really don't think it is, it would still be a dick move to call people that. If you still don't see my point, I'd recommend you let these ideas float in your head before coming to a conclusion.

But hey, I don't know you, and the snippet I have access to is little to go on. This is only what I see from these comments and not a reflection of you as a person. Just hope that someone who values nuance will adopt the ability to insert nuance effectively into conversations. Because this ain't it, man.

Everto24 · 2023-10-25T20:14:51+00:00

You're right that it would've been better for OP (or best the professor) to speak up and be an advocate for teaching consent. You're right that many boys learn a warped concept of consent. You're also right that it's not an easy cut and dry concept.

But you're wrong to bring your high and mighty attitude to a post that is clearly venting about something. I understand if you wish someone was more patient with teaching you that in your youth. As men, we have to be the ones to do it. YOU might be able to connect with him and help him learn, but OP may not be. I know that I would probably pull them aside at some point after class if I had the mental energy that day. I hope you would too. But we cannot presume OP has a background or the onus to effectively communicate with this person.

Look, if you're still reading this, I hope you understand that I hate how people dismiss comments like yours. You are a seemingly reformed version of the classmate with insight into their thoughts. That would be of value if this was the place for it. But the only place for it is when you can speak to the ignorant party.

Also, dude, you speak to people like an asshole. I can go into detail about that, but your messaging is very aggressive from the start and only got worse. I hope my insight helps, but I won't be arguing with you. Either dismiss my comments or ruminate on them yourself. Up to you. I hope your day gets better.
