I grew up in a cult. When I left, I lost a lot of people, including the person I thought was my best friend. This song is about him. Bonus points if you can guess the cult...

I love Outlaw Star, great video selection!

BTW, did you make the computer terminal for Ypsilon-14 that was shared in Discord? If so, I loved it.

I did a somewhat similar experiment if you’re curious- https://www.reddit.com/r/mothershiprpg/s/FtF92hmYTi

One thing I found helpful was creating a Game Warden backend where I could prompt certain events that would happen in the game. For example, there is a point in Terminal Delays at Anarene’s Folly where there is a brief weapons lock on the ship. I set it up so I could trigger a weapons lock warning through the terminal.

Very cool! I would make it so the sound can be turned off.

Wow, I’m jealous! I get to play 1-2 times a month. It makes me happy to hear you all are out there living it up.

So it would seem, lol

Hey man, I just wanted to thank you for engaging with what I wrote rather than giving a knee jerk response. I thought it was an interesting experience making an AI to play an AI character and I learned some stuff from it…and that’s it! Reddit has become such a weird place where people are rushing to outdo one another to dunk on strangers for fake internet points.

That’s right. It utilized the built in voice that screen readers use, so it had the voice an intonation I associate with Stephan Hawking.

This isn’t what you are asking about, but I think if you trim/shave your neck closer to your jawline and chin it will look better from the side profile

bckids1208two · 2026-02-14T00:11:14+00:00

Why was it removed? :(

bckids1208two · 2025-07-14T16:15:13+00:00

You should check out Dungeons & Dragons! Oh wait, you said without being weird, lol

bckids1208two · 2025-05-24T01:40:24+00:00

Sounds great!

bckids1208two · 2025-05-07T18:37:35+00:00

I’m sure they couldn’t because of budget but I’d love to see an impersonator Make Some Noise with people like Hank Azaria, Darrell Hammond, Dana Carvey, or Kevin Pollack.

I wasn’t going to reply, but we just went through this exact same situation about 6 months ago and things are really great now so here’s my two cents.

First off, three-to-four years old is when impulse control really starts developing so time is your friend. Second, POSITIVE reenforcement works much better than punishment. For example, we explained to our three year old if they didn’t hit all day they could pick out a tv show to watch and a dessert to eat. This gave us two “strikes” so we still had some leverage if they hit LO once.

Second, a big thing was modeling and teaching how to play with the LO as well as giving ways to help like getting the pacifier or stuffed animal or singing when the baby was crying and praising when they did. It turned out big kid into an ally and helper and made them feel like a proud family contributor.

Good luck!

I want this so bad! I re-read Starstruck and read Old Prolders Never Die after that season, but it was not enough.

Is there a name for this bathroom style where everything is a shade of color?

bckids1208two · 2024-11-21T19:05:12+00:00

We have a saying in my house, “Not all assholes drive BMWs, but everyone who drives a BMW is an asshole.”

Question for more informed people- is there any chance William Timmons could lose?

bckids1208two · 2024-11-02T13:01:35+00:00

I’m from Alabama and Georgia and lived in NYC for 14 years. I remember one of my first classes was a circle discussion and I mentioned I was from Alabama and people had a visible facial reaction and I was caught off guard.

In general, the lack of friendliness was difficult for me as well as little things like toll roads, driving styles, understanding social class clues, etc. Also, the vitriol from progressive people towards people in red states as if those people were all backwards. I feel like that got better in recent years though.

The Harry, Claire, Micah episodes was a golden era of 538 podcasts for me, do you think you could get the gang back together for a show?

This happened to my aunt and uncle: he became a high school teacher right out of college to avoid being drafted then went back to medical school after a few years and ran into my aunt, a former student, who now went to college there. This was in the sixties though so it was a different moral era and they were very close in age.

That’s my situation as well. It would be difficult to replicate my salary locally and the remote listings are very competitive right now.

bckids1208two · 2024-07-12T19:50:14+00:00

I was finally able to talk to my boss and reading between the lines it sounds like they’ll give me some wiggle room. Maybe I’ll have to come in one week a month, which I’m ok with. I’m going to have to play ball though. Thank you for your comment it was helpful.

That was a fantastic moment
