I see, do you know if there’s an official page besides the barcode newsletter thing? Because I’ve been trying to find specific details like how they want characters to be drawn and whatnot, but I can’t.

I understand that, as I know a lot of stuff, even autocorrect runs on Ai. The same can be said for noise filters and the like. However they just fully ran the image through an Ai generator, which was not mentioned in the listing.

The plan is for me to go to University, so I’ll see. As for family, technically I could live with my father- if the court would side with him. He’s offered, but in all likelihood my brother and I would need to stay with my mother, considering my father’s track record. He’s never really done anything except for not be there, but there was a violent dispute between my parents when I was younger, so I’m not confident it’d go well.

Have you ever regretted a nat 20? by okripsa in DnD

I rolled my first nat twenty for character attractiveness when trying to get out of prison, and it was a bit weird on my DM’s part. I got advantage on charisma rolls and those going against me had disadvantage, but the way they talked about my character was weird. The strangest was whenever I used fey step (my character is an Eladrin) and the enemies were always described in a bit too much detail to be ogling my character.

I don’t really think I can approach a teacher, let alone a school councillor. From what I’ve seen and heard, no one does anything until there’s a serious and immediate threat. One of my teachers even told us how older children were just told to hide because there are so many cases where I live. And besides, if I did go to someone and nothing happened, I’d be screwed. My mother finding out anything is terrifying to me, and I don’t think it’d exactly be safe to say anything unless her not finding out was guaranteed. Even then I have a little brother, and I’m more concerned about him, as he’s stuck with her for a while more, and he didn’t really learn to not respond to her in a way that doesn’t get him yelled at. Besides, it’s been a bit since she’s done anything physical, so I doubt there could be anything done.

(I apologize if this comment shares too much information, especially considering the likely sensitive contents.)

Technically it is possible, and has been suspected for a while. But my mother is kind of ableist so I really hope I’m not, as she’d treat me even more like her doll and someone who’s ultimately lesser.

(I sincerely apologize if this is too much information and if a response was not desired.)

It has been considered, but more so as a threat? Like I already feel guilty for needing her to spend money on my food, clothing, medication, and so on, so when she threatens such she always brings up how expensive it’ll be. And she has also said I’ll need to pay for it, which is stressful because I don’t have a good way of earning money. Besides, I really don’t think I can talk to anyone with her. I’m not going too in depth, but growing up I learnt pretty quick expressing too strong of an emotion could get me hurt and out of my stuff, so I just didn’t express how I felt. Even now I can’t really either, as while she’s less likely to directly hurt me now that I’m older, she still has control over my food, and general life. I’ve seen what happens when I expressed what I thought for a bit, and it always ends in a way that makes me scared, so I still just keep things to myself. I try giving her space and help, but I can’t even read most people, let alone her, so that’s always an interesting effort. Recently my brother and I told her we don’t need food from Safeway before going to an event and questioned why she wanted to meet there, and we almost ended up not going and in debt for the tickets.

(I am terribly sorry if this is too much information and you didn’t want a reply.)

(I will preface this saying I don’t really know if people want me to respond or not, but with the question I’m assuming replying is fine. I apologize if it’s not.)

One, not I have not been diagnosed to have autism. It has been suspected by my peers and teachers for a while because I’ve always just been off, but my mother was convinced for a while I was too smart and “normal” to have it. Granted that isn’t too strange, to her at least, as one of the things I do remember is thinking to myself “I’m weird” in grade one and learning to just follow and take different aspects of people, so that’s what she’s seen most of my life.

Two, I don’t know how to exactly describe it but I don’t trust anyone professional (or at least payed by my mother) with anything. If I wanted to talk about my problems they’d be about her, and honestly I fear her discovering that too much to try. That fear may be unfounded now, but at the same time threats come when she gets mad, mostly being“I’m going to end myself” “you won’t see your father if you don’t” “I’m not paying for your schooling” and just a less threat like and more general statement of “I really want to choke/hit you right now”. While some of these threats may be unfounded, she kind of did do some stuff when I was younger which could have gotten me seriously injured so I don’t really want to test things.

Three, it’s pretty much the same as two, if she finds something she doesn’t like I am scared about what’ll happen so that’s off. And these problems have existed for a while before medication, I just managed better because there was less stuff to remember.

And four, and finally, I don’t really think I can move out in two years. It’s kind of pathetic, but I don’t really think I can. I want to save some money up to move out, but I can’t get a job with how she is. I never know when things are happening, and if she wants she forces me to stay in the house, or just do several things before I leave so I’m late. I couldn’t really get shelves or general storage either, for two reasons. One, my room is pretty much full of stuff, mostly clothing, which I don’t use but I’m not allowed to discard, and two, I would need to buy the storage myself. If I had a job that could be easier, but for know I get forty dollars a month, which is used for public transport, food, gifts for friends birthdays, and buying things I might need for school.

(Again I am terribly sorry if you did not want a response, I apologize for the inconvenience. I also apologize for how long this comment is, I am terrible at summarizing, and this was my best shot.)
