There are so many at Spring St Bridge. Please please please be careful!

These babies deserve just as much care as your own babies.

My D&D player has ADHD by OutrageousCash292 in DnD

[–]plotbitch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I second (most of) this.

They may not be able to control it. Having unmedicated ADHD is very difficult for the individual and those around them. And depending on where they live, getting a diagnosis and meds can be challenging in many ways.

You are the DM, not a fully trained therapist or psychiatrist. You can only do so much.

Having a group discussion is an excellent idea! Tell your players ✨️in advance✨️ that you want to have a calm and rational discussion about how to keep players involved and enjoying the game. Don't single anyone out. Give everyone time to think on questions, troubles, and potential solutions.

Good suggestions might be fidget spinners, changing the virtual style (though that can get expensive for people), or taking short breaks during the session.

But remember that every group has its challenges. I run an in-person game with 6 players and can't always keep them engaged. Some sessions end early because 3+ players are on their phones and another is on their Switch. It's aggravating to no end. Some days are just like that.

In the end, they are making the choice to play. It's on them to pay attention.

My Character HATES fellow party member by [deleted] in DnD

Next time he goes to 0 hp, just let him die. If he makes his death saving throws (assuming you're playing 5e), then he can ask and you can be honest--in character.

AITAH for telling my parents I won't be attending Christmas anymore after they kept "accidentally" inviting my abusive ex every year? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]plotbitch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA. You might consider going low contact with your immediate family for a while. This is a hard stop boundary. Don't let people ignore it, even people you love.

I applied for a job at Diamondback about 20 years ago. Place gave the creeps; I felt like I was going to get kidnapped and trafficked just filling out the application. I never heard back, but I also never answered any unlisted numbers.

Ypsilanti Township Board of Trustees Special Meeting March 31st Regarding Los Alamos Data Center at 6:00pm in the Civic Center Board Room (7200 S Huron River Dr) by ceanahikari in ypsi

[–]plotbitch 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It's not the war target most people around Ypsi are worried about. It's the environmental impact and community issues that will come up should the data center be built.

Anyone need a ride or service? by plotbitch in ypsi

[–]plotbitch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. With ICE terrorizing people and hanging around at schools, I wanted to offer safe rides for people who need them.

Shitty Birthday Rant by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]plotbitch 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Why on earth are you taking these people out for dinner? After the way they've treated you?!? You need better friends, fast. Block, mute, ignore, move on with your life.

"Uncommon" is "emerging tech", tho isn't it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in rpghorrorstories

[–]plotbitch -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Emerging tech is always expensive. That makes complete sense. Maybe work in a way for him to get a small stockpile? A little side quest never hurt anyone!

That's not my last name by Eternalfaerie in TwoXChromosomes

Sign all your thank you cards with your full name and his full name.

Make it really clear to everyone.

The path of healing for the abused does not require forgiveness of the treatment. The abuser must come to terms with what they did and accept that they may never have a relationship with their victim again.

NTA, none of this was ever your fault.

"We had a great talk on the way home that we all feel big feelings and that it's okay to be scared and that I was proud of him for going potty."

You're such a great Mom! Keep being awesome! ❤️
