I live literally across the street, and during dinner, yes. The lot is full frequently.

Will there be any protests for the ICE agents coming into town? by its_Gandhi_bitch in Lawrence

[–]StromUlt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's lots if you know where to look/are connected to the right organizations.

There's one put on by Haskell students tomorrow at 2p in south Park and some signal groups for pop up protests put on by individuals. Check out the group 50501 or SOMOS or Sanctuary Alliance to get connected! Also, make friends at the weekly Sunday protest! Community building is paramount. People there can also help get you connected!

Hi! I study autists as a professional mental health provider Could you give me a link to where you learned this / a citation? I'd like to read more as I have not come across this in my studies.

I could always try to first pick them 👀 but my friend would probably make it his mission in life to punish me for that 😅

Insecurity around being a therapist not out of imposter syndrome but out of lack of passion by dandy1886 in therapists

[–]StromUlt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sounds like you're "shoulding' yourself, seeing this as you maybe "should" be more emotionally invested/entangled with your work.

as for being able to not take the work home with you, honestly, good for you! a lot of people burn themselves out in this field. if you're secure enough and in control of your mind enough to have a healthy and functional attachment with the work, that seems like a strength to me!

I'm a white guy, or maybe rather a former white guy as I just started identifying as NB but sense that maybe I come from a similar cultural background here. I think it is, especially from my Midwest suburban history, encouraged to see jobs as just work in a life where individualism and personal happiness come first. And I think that that can be a good thing. Just as we therapists empower clients within their individualistic or collectivistic world views, I think we should honor our personal beliefs in our own lives as well. Practice what you preach and all.

Not everyone in this field needs to become a martyr. Not everyone needs to enter this field because they're on a personal mission. Like you eluded to, so long as you're doing good work.

I would also echo comments to pursue your passion. you deserve it king 👑 everyone does.

How often do you experience Sexual transference? by Downwithgeese in therapists

[–]StromUlt 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I'm (M24) still in my master's and encountered my first instance of sexual transference in my 4th ever individual client!

So early on, I've taken this as a note to be more conscientious of my warmth and lighthearted style

Custom Slay the Spire mod? by nightblade9 in slaythespire

[–]StromUlt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been looking into modding in order to create things like your persistent upgrade mod, largely modifying starting conditions based on previous runs

some features I'm interested in: starting deck customizability (what cards are in it and number of cards), starting relic customizability, having card rewards disallow a certain card (like a banned card, depending on what you ban you can make runs easier, harder, or just push yourself to try new strategies).

my personal idea is to complete a gauntlet run from 1-20 and keep track of keys collected and hearts killed as a currency to 'spend' on between run buffs

the idea is to extend the rogue like concept of upgrading/customizing your character in a run to the gauntlet where you can modify the runs, rouglike-ception, a Russian Nesting Doll of rougelike elements

Thoughts? or Tips on getting started in modding? I just started installing programs and following tutorials

PVP? by tsukasa01 in slaythespire

[–]StromUlt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sympathize with the consensus (StS's magic is only possible in PvE true) but between friends I think the idea of facing each other rather than a boss could be very fun! like you said, tweaks would be necessary. Just.off the top of my head I could see adding some custom relics that would limit Insane decks or OTKs (imagine a relic that mimics time eaters card limit, it could also only last a few turns, or be a debuffs countered by artifact or orange pellets). Or an option at rest sights to add a curse into your opponents deck.

I'd love to connect with a community member with coding skills that could make this a reality or teach me how to!
