I agree her motives are completely shit and intended to cause harm. My comment was more about accuracy. I could get behind the idea that paying someone else to sue another party should be illegal. But in the strictest sense, I cannot agree that paying for the legal fees of someone who sues a specific party should be illegal. In short, I wholeheartedly agree with you in spirit (that spirit being "fuck pieces of trash who use their wealth to harm others"), but not the suggestion as written.
Rowling is a piece of shit human, full stop. However, there is a difference between offering to pay for someone to sue another party, and offering to cover the legal fees of anyone who sues another party. It's a narrow distinction, but an important one.
Is your beef with families or shared calendars? Both? I get we hate all things AI, and this is a particularly stupid use case for it, but this feels like a lot of vitriol aimed at... Calendars? Digital calendars?
Into people's mouths, right?I kid of course. But as lasagna is my favorite food, I think I would suffer through the agony of overindulgence before allowing it to go spoiled.
I mistook "personal life drama" in your comment to mean "drama of the character's personal life". My bad. I was trying to imagine characters in a game without any personal life to motivate them.
I didn't realize you were talking about "real life" history being applied to the characters. The games I've run seem to revolve more around escaping mundane life and its problems. But I suppose we run session zero's to talk about this sort of stuff first, and help avoid player disappointment by talking through the possible consequences of character backstories and motivations. I agree, the game isn't therapy (although it can be cathartic).
So PC's in your games just don't have back stories? No personal motivations or desires? It's just "Hi I'm bob, level 3 fighter, and I'm here to kill goblins because that's what we do here to make a living".I suppose it works, but it feels a little like being randomly assigned group members in school. Lol*We'll work together because we need this project to pass the class. We don't need to get along, just do your part of the project and we'll turn in this quest for our reward."
I would guess your anti compilers as well? My grandfather feels the same way. Of course, he was part of the team that wrote the assembly code for the first ATMs in existence, and had a real disdain for anything more user friendly than cobol
My friend %100 doesn't understand what they are looking at here. So you're doing significantly better than them.
Question for the Europeans who drive frequently, what do you budget a week for fuel? With the latest price increases in mind, I now plan about $120 a week for gas. Admittedly, I have a roughly 90 mile round trip commute for work, and I drive a 21 year old car, so I'm by no means an efficient example.
Tell your wife that some internet nerds think she's dope!And, you know, happy birthday or whatever. Lol

Lol. I can't tell from your comment if it was your intent, but soundoftheforest is a beloved autistic content creator with a special interest in bugs. As a fellow, albeit older, AuDhder, her excitement, passion, and love of sharing knowledge brings a lot of joy!
AuDhd here and in the same line of work for the past few years. It's been good.
I once ordered two dozen sunny side up eggs at an IHOP for dinner. The waitress thought I was joking. I was not. While I did finish them, I can honestly say it was a struggle after the first 12 and a regret after 18. After that lesson in hubris, I stuck to just a dozen. So hats off to you, you egg devouring monster!
3) The experience changes you. The pain never disappears, but you will grow, and it will diminish in perspective. I hope that thought can give you hope for later.For now, know that it is okay to grieve. For yourself, your diagnosis, the relationship, and the version of you from before the diagnosis now lost. There will be plenty of time for growth and happiness on the future. Take whatever time you need now. - Blessings
2) insurmountable. I was lost and couldn't even figure out how to find a life raft because the person I had built my life around had (rightfully) left to prioritize themselves. That grief and pain left scars that are hard to convey, especially for someone Autistic such as myself.Qfter time, therapy, consistency, and a near death experience that reminded me I still wanted to live, I learned to make progress again. Little by little.
A lot t I f comments here mean well, and the support their effort, bit perhaps a touch of different perspective may help as well. I've had a few mental diagnosis myself over the years, andw,hile I didn't fully understand it at the time, they played a part on my divorce and other changing life circumstances. I was lucky enough to separate amicably from my wife, but the grief of losing someone so important to me while still learning to navigate the mental maelstrom of my new er diagnosis felt
Absolutely no one! (Look one comment above yours)But for real. I largely agree with what your saying. And to OP, as a fellow autist, use what helps you. I use AI for work daily, but I refuse to engage with it in artistic means because I don't want it to rob from the creative experiences in life.
Just music and writing over here, but I'm always happy to dabble in whatever creative pursuits strike my fancy as time allows. And I envy painters and sculpturs in particular. There's something beautiful about giving physical form to a mental image, and I simply have no real gift for it. But I love seeing others play their craft!
That "first layer" is more impressive than any art I have ever created. God, I love and envy artists. Fantastic work? And thank you for sharing!
In my case specifically, I'm pretty sure it's the autism.
My 2001 is.
Guys, he was clearly referring to himself. He wishes he had done this during his first term.
Mine is 5 years and about 20k miles older, but looks about the same. Still makes a decent winter car.
#43 Agreed. Michigan born and raised. And fall will always be the best season. A high of 55, crisp breeze, and a bonfire to keep the evening going. I tried a summer in North Carolina, beautiful, but my God was it way too warm for my taste. And no good lakes to cool off at.
Damnit; this makes me feel like I need to give up drinking whole milk. And I really like that stuff. Fucking Nazis ruin everything
As an autistic man who experiences limerence, my very first special interests were words and stories. This list was beautiful, and even had two new words for me!
Limerence is also used to described the symptom of intense infatuation experienced by some autistic, and presumably other nuerodivergent people, when they find a person who becomes their special interest or hyperfixation. I've experienced it multiple times throughout my life, and have worked in therapy to monitor/control it.
