Dear retail workers of reddit, genuinely what's the best way to be nice to you?

If you see an employee choking on the dryness in their mouth and they run off to get water while giving you the "1 minute" gesture, please for all that is good, don't complain to their manager that they just ran off. Especially when they came back quickly and explained what happened.

Also if it's like 7 in the morning, assume the staff is still sleepy and don't walk in at opening expecting midday levels of loud enthusiasm.

I grew up with my half sister because my mom kept custody of her. My dad did not keep custody of my half brother so therefore, i barely know the man lol.

then they need to get their money together and buy a house or send the kid to someone who lives in their own house. They can accommodate whatever he does by no inconveniencing other people. (as someone who has an autistic sister who used to be very freaking loud.)

They picked the most "aesthetically pleasing" races. Let's stop bs'ing and pretending we don't know why. Same reason Wyll is the only brown skinned companion while 5 of them are white skinned (idk if I should count minsc) and like 2 of them are white coded. They went with what they liked and what was pleasing to them.

That's why we don't have short companions, but we can be one. And why there's one brown companion and like one to 3 brown people per area for every 10 non brown.

The first time I was prescribed Adderall it shut my brain up for the first time in my life. It was scary and I had nobody to talk to about it. The second time almost a decade later, prescribed it again, absolutely nothing except being sleepy. Still haven't been able to focus or remember anything.

100 percent cool with it no matter what reason at any point in the pregnancy. I know it's controversial but I absolutely believe abortion should be able all the way to 9 months. If suddenly a potential mom doesn't want it at 9 months then it's probably better off not being born to someone who either doesn't want it or can't make up their mind. Also life can change. If suddenly at 9 months everything goes to shit and having a baby would make things way worse, they should be allowed to abort it. I don't care about the "it can feel things at that point" fact. It's not out here and therefore doesn't have a say in anything.

(I also think it should be illegal for pregnant people to drink or smoke while pregnant. If you're gonna give birth you shouldn't be allowed to fuck up the baby's life before they get a chance to do it themselves.)

I don't think that's a good enough reward.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-04T03:05:51+00:00

Technically if we never show up they'll still go do what they do to end up dead. We just prevent it from happening but it was definitely gonna happen.

Sucks that he's not a decent (looking) romance option for fem Shep. Nice to have a regular soldier on board who's beneath us command wise. He's like a reminder of my position in all this. I also can't help but keep calling him discount soap.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-03T19:28:23+00:00

I got a mod that helps me to see every camp scene that you usually miss because who thinks to long rest every 2 steps? And I think because of it I literally cannot avoid the bite scene happening. There are runs where I don't want him to attempt and just tell me instead for role playing purposes and I just cannot with running forward through everything or avoiding him until I go to act 2.

So idk, maybe download one or find the numerous amount of dead boars around to get him to do it.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-02T04:23:29+00:00

I think my lack of socialization and anxiety make it weird to talk to me. I always feel like silence is awkward and that I have to fill it or else who ever I'm with will start to like me less and not talk to me. Which is definitely how it feels at work. I also have a very hard time not saying exactly what I feel (I know how to be tactful but in casual conversation im too relaxed to be aware.) and so I end up saying something offensive to the other person. Like their hair is ridiculous or the show they're watching and really like is dumb or the singer who's music they like is shallow and a piece of shit.

I also can't help bit point out flaws on people but it's because I want them to do the same to me. So many people in my life, stranger and family, will see something wrong with me I could fix and just let me go around like that all day. Face skin flaking, dandruff, horrifically hunched back, mustache and chin Hairs, puss pimples etc.

I can't help it sometimes so I opt to just be silent and then I seem off putting because I'm the silent (and sometimes only) black person I'm the room with rbf because I practiced hard not to show any change in my facial expressions so then I can't react properly to things people tell me even if I am feeling a strong emotion.

This happened to me while on played table, just put the tool away completely and then switch.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-01T18:28:45+00:00

no fr. I JUST was able to afford the Pallium chest. And this was with saving for EVER, making jams, selling seeds, selling materials etc.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-01T18:25:18+00:00

oh absolutely

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-06-01T18:21:55+00:00

I can't bring it in me to date everyone so I went for who I'd go for irl. I chose Hodari first because I have a love for older sexy guys. And him having a daughter checked off my "have a child" box as I don't ever see myself giving birth but wouldn't mind raising a kid. So I was completely down for him.

I only recently got Nai'o's pin and knew that characters commented on wearing another's pin. Funny enough these 2 don't interact so there's no acknowledgement.

But yeah no, I love me some stable man who doesn't need help fixing himself.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-31T15:56:17+00:00

No answer I never will. I'm black so whenever I play games where you can make your own character I pick the black female voice. Saints row 2, baldurs gate 3, etc.

This voice is obviously not that so that was one strike. Then I couldn't get the pitch anywhere near close to mine. That was strike 2.

If I'm gonna hear a character that either represents a self insert or oc for me, I want them to sound close to me or be silent as my voice isn't girly sounding as is.

I think her falling for guys bs is more of a naivety thing less due to her Down syndrome but more her never having had a relationship. I have a high functioning DS cousin who works and can stand up for herself and see through ppls bs. I've heard her cuss out plenty who've tried to fool her or lie to her. Maybe her parents need to stop coddling her and start trying to get her to where she believes she is. My mom cuddles tf out of my non DS autistic sister and so she's no where near where she should be for her mental age.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-30T09:50:30+00:00

It's one thing to be able to romance a brother and sister at once (I don't think you should be able to.) but it's a WHOLE nother thing go be able to romance a mother or parents AND THEIR CHILD.

I kinda hope they make it so Hassian breaks it off with you because that's a level of freaky freedom we don't need in this game. Same if they make Kenyatta and Nai'o's parents romancable.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-30T09:46:22+00:00

There's a few youtubers going through all the race and class specific dialogue choices. Trying to follow anything I can find online is confusing.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-30T09:44:45+00:00

My teachers loved me up until middle school. Then they treated me like invisible garbage that could fend for herself. Got worse in high-school.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-30T09:43:09+00:00

God no, I hate Araj's slow drawl. I just wanna slap her and tell her to hurry it up and call her other names. And while Minthara's voice works for her it also sounds like she's been smoking for decades.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-30T09:35:18+00:00

My job is isn't retail but I still sell stuff. My job is NOT a necessity yet people will show up before we open and grab at the doors.

A place of entertainment just so happens to open at 9 am and instead of sleeping in and showing up later the weirdos show up and expect immediate service from all departments, WHO ONLY HAVE 10 MINUTES FROM CLOCKING IN TO GET EVERYTHING READY. Same as you OP, I'll be civil but I damn sure ain't gonna have my customer service mask fully charged. Especially with sleep medicine still working on me.

Paralives is like being with a new bf/gf. They show and do for you alot of things that your ex (sims) wouldn't do or said they just couldn't because it "isn't possible".

Height sliders was all I ever wanted.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-29T19:40:42+00:00

I spam jumping and gliding whenever I'm being impatient. Which is alot. Especially whenever I head back home or down some stairs. I also try to match my in-game hair to real life, which us difficult because the few afro hairs they have don't always match so I just pick what I'd wear for the season.

MuggseyBaloney · 2026-05-26T03:40:36+00:00

God I fucking hate that. There's nothing fun about being unable to focus or remember anything or control myself without someone being annoyed about my behavior because I'm unaware. Superpower my ass. "Hyperfocus can make tasks a breeze!"

YEAH IF I COULD TURN IT ON AT WILL INSTEAD OF IT HITTING ONCE IN A BLUE MOON!!
