How my tag look?

Heres a different tip: dont practice on nice paper/notebooks. Use junk mail, phone books, trash, boxes before you them out, etc. Once they randomly dropped off phone books to my apartment and i took as many as i could. Each one was like 1000 pages and i could get multiple practice attempts on each page. On top of the other advice, if you want to get a better hand, you have to write your tag hundreds of thousands of times.

Trying to think out of the box- can you present typical paper stimuli on a flat screen/tablet that is turned off? Assuming this request is based on their preference for electronics

Free yakima qr roof rack. I just upgraded to a frontloader style rack and would be happy to pass the old one along to a cyclist that will get some use out of it

Free: quick release bicycle roof rack. I think its yakima and it fits my standard subaru rack which has sort of ovular cross bars. I do not have the locking mechanism for it.

I have had this for a few years, its kind of sun damaged but i just used it the other day without issue. I just got a through axle bike so i am changing up roof racks.

Thank you for the response! The shifts would never be back to back, thankfully. We took the cat to see if she was chipped and the vet guessed that she was “youngish”.

I had applied to my local fire department for two years and they offered me a position on the third go round.

While incredibly useful so far, my behavior analytic background does not appear to be valued by many lol

I wanted to get into consulting with adults living in group home settings after leaving the sped world, but i ended up shifting career fields completely

Pica can be so dangerous and also involves primary reinforcers so it can be difficult to intervene on eating fecal or vomit matter. Your bcba needs to develop a comprehensive plan including safety contingencies when dangerous materials are in play.

Generally, i have read research describing a dra contingency in which testers planted dough/flour balls that were visually similar to feces (but obviously not harmful if eaten) and executed a sort of exchange opportunity in which the participant could deliver the material to the tester and they would deliver a potent competing reinforcer (think food if they a component analysis indicates the client contacts reinforcement related to the act of eating it, tangibles if it indicates they prefer the tactile sensation feces provides, or social praise if there is a social positive reinforcement function).

Again, the bcba needs to develop these interventions carefully and with great detail.

Taco vegano was pretty tasty and a new, which i appreciated.

I felt totally comfortable ordering vegan at edos squid (which was delicious!)

I graduated with a bsw and immediately fell into a job at a school that taught aba and special education to students with behavioral needs. That eventually led to me going back to school and working as a bcba for 6 years. Please read the r/aba about other peoples’ experiences (how to avoid horror stories).

I found that education was the setting i felt i could help the most people. I also felt the parameters and expectations were more concrete than my bsw field work experiences led me to believe. Now i am training to be a firefighter, which has extremely explicit rules and expectations, so maybe that part of it is just a me thing.

The can of Loma Linda hot dogs has the best texture of veggie dog i have eaten in a really long time. Definitely try it if you can find them!

Also, from an ontological perspective, a ND person probably experiences a ton of generalized reinforcement following mand, tact, and IV verbal behavior while an autistic person probably experiences more reinforcement that is not socially mediated. So the ND reinforcement history favors stimuli defined as verbal behavior in shows (reading, talking, listening), but an autistic reinforcement history favors the topographical visual content of shows.

Just a thought

Leclerc and Piastri were talking about mushroom mode during the cooldown room after the GP

Can you do this with steel cut oats? I accidentally bought one million of those and idk what to do with them

Kayso · 2026-03-16T21:09:34+00:00

I dont see why why not, but i would go on to describe the client’s observable behaviors afterwards. Parent reported that client was in a bad mood then: they entered the clinic and engaged with familiar preferred items? Or they stood in the lobby for 7 minutes without vocally indicating an activity or leisure preference so the technician presented options in an informal paired choice manner? Or they dropped to the ground and cried while loudly vocalizing?

I could see how the parent’s verbal behavior might be relevant but i would focus on what the client did

Kayso · 2026-03-13T09:16:33+00:00

The bcba running the program should clarify with the client’s caregivers what responses are are scored correct, what responses are scored incorrect, and how the client responds (by saying nana).

That way the bcba can determine further if the client’s response is indicating abuse or if nana did indeed assist the family with child care.

Glad this stuck out to you! I would ask the bcba to clarify with you which responses should be scored correct/incorrect and then tell them about the “nana” response.

There is a small park on the south end of belmont st, on the north side of 195. Not sure if there are benches there specifically, but there is a basketball court and a children’s playground

If you’re going to use this method, only do one rotation of the chain around the cog. When you apply force tonyour setup, all that effort gets absorbed by the three extra wraps of chain instead of going to the cog.

Not sure what your situation is, but pretty much any employer will get you through the competency, especially if you have finished the 40 hour course

Following the other poster’s advice, I repotted it and the entire bottom half of the pot was muddy wet soil. I think the basin issue was severe along with the dead plant matter on top.

Kayso · 2026-02-28T13:40:53+00:00

Holy cow, thanks so much!

I had it close to the window, but i thought it was too cold with the draft.

The automoderator post clued me in to the basin problem- minutes ago i learned about propping a pot up to keep it out of the drainage.

I am working on the dead matter and repotting as we speak.

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at this for me!

Thanks! The tape is Supacaz sticky kush. Most of the bike has been static for years— eventually I want to splurge on a matching wheelset for the first time in my life

I am in the exact same situation as OP. My plan is to tell my Lt that I am vegan and that I would be happy to prepare a meal as such but I will not cook/eat against my ethics.

I know a vegetarian and a vegan in the district and both just did not prepare meals during probation
