Makes sense, thanks for the (late) explanation xD

which is easy to disable (unless changed since I played the last time) if you're fine with playing offline

Zudem:

Bekiffte sind sich ihrer Defizite oft bewusst und fahren vorsichtiger. Das hebt die Defizite natürlich nicht auf und ist immernoch gefährlicher; aber alle bekifften Fahrer die ich in meiner Jugend begleitet habe warteten auf Grün, fuhren maximal die Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung und achtetrn auch an Kreuzungen sehr genau auf Seitenverkehr und Fußgänger. (Jedoch nur sehr selten auf Rückspiegel oder Jaywalker; übersehen manchmal Schilder und haben im Allgemeinen einen Tunnelblick nach vorne. Und die beeinträchtigte Reaktionszeit ist vorallem unvorbereitet echt nicht zu unterschätzen!)

Viele betrunkene hingegen warn meist "I kan noh farn", brettern über Rot und geben nen Fick auf viele Regeln bzw. denken garnicht dran.

Im allgemeinen habe ich mich bei Bekifften deutlich weniger unsicher gefühlt als bei Betrunkenen.

Am Ende bleibt jedoch: Fahrt nüchtern! Die Regeln sind meiner Meinung nach nicht "Ich darf soviel konsumieren und dann noch ins Auto steigen" sondern "Ich hab noch Reste im Blut vom Vorabend" bzw. "Ich saß halt mit meinen Kifferhomies im Raum und hab passiv bissl was abbekommen:

Well, my brain seems to be affected by it according to that test (difference score of 11) if I interpret the scale correctly

But well, I also got autism and quite a few other mental conditions and learned all my life to cope quite well with all my disabilities; that's why I specifically outsource direction question to a visualization that make the answer more tangible for me than listening to my intuition.

But well, what works for some doesn't necessarily work for all. And probably my other conditions have some influence on it as well. We're all different, after all; even if sharing a few traits.

That's why I explicitly stated local.*

I don't care which country I'm in and how they are driving there. I obviously visualize cars I grew up with.

E: well, I see how local can be interpreted as exactly the opposite of what I mean... oops

[–] Oszilloraptor@feddit.de 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (3 children)

I get that. My intuition often mixes both up, too.

That's why I trained myself to say "driver-side" and "passenger-side" in my head when left or right come up. To a point where I don't even have to think about thinking about it. I just visualize which side of car is meant instead of the rather abstract concept of left and right

Might not help you; but it helps me

[–] Oszilloraptor@feddit.de 4 points 3 months ago (7 children)

I always imagine a (local) car, and remember which side the driver sits on

Not OP, but yeah...

There are a few mental/neurological conditions that lead to a big adversion against ordinary recurring tasks.

(In my case it's PDA; but it's something that I see across multiple neurodivergent spectrums, as well as in people with depression)

What difference makes a year or two

[–] Oszilloraptor@feddit.de 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

But yeah I'm ~235lbs/106kg guy, and I don't like how I look most days in the mirror in a boring t-shirt and shorts, let alone trying to be desirable, so I'm kinda setting myself up mentally for disappointment. We shall see.

Sounds like me a year ago xD

Try find something that suits your figure; fem clothes can be quite good at camouflaging and distracting from problematic areas if one gets the right stuff.

And it drastically boosts self image when you found clothes you feel comfortable in, even if only in certain situations.

And my personal experience in case you don't like your face (I didn't, but I've got gender-related dysphoria in that regard): these femboy-cat-face-masks; wear them if you try out or take pictures in dresses. Allows you to focus on the clothes instead your face. After you found clothes you like with that mask on, you might take a look at some basic makeup. Nothing too fancy, but a bit of foundation, powder, minimalistic eyeshadow and mascara can do wonders.

But essentially: Try it! Do yourself a favor and try it! I wish I would have given in sooner instead of always thinking "nah, won't suit me anyway and I will just look like a dude in a dress". Wearing stuff like that played a huge part in realizing who I am.

(And it gave me a reason to loose some weight. 103kg->88kg since December)

And obviously: Should you find out in the end that fem clothes are just not your thing; that's fine as well! But if the idea was already in your head: try it ^-^

Just do it.

There are many large people that look beautiful. You have to search for the right clothes.

I assume from your comment that you're maybe a bit chubby; that's no shame. Many chubby people look wonderful in fem clothes.

You maybe should go for something more comfortable than the sexy secretary look, but (unless your suuuuper overweight) there will be something that's suiting your figure. Just google some guides for transfeminine clothing and try some stuff. Many of us wanna wear feminine clothing while having similar issues. A love for food is not depending on the gender ;)

Btw: My personal recommendation are long black skirts from the steampunk/goth/pseudo-victorian niches. They often have enough accessories and other highlights to distract; and they don't look all that bad if one is a bit larger

Why are people so surprised?

There is money to be made, and we're not used to seeing cashcows beeing left alone

 

Hi,

I want to play some d&d with two friends soon; and the role as dm came to me. (we would want to increase the group size if the first few small adventures run good)

My experience in rpgs is limited to maybe 5 runs (Shadowrun 4th Edition) and a few adventures (two if which I was GM) in "Das Schwarze Auge". But both now over a decade ago.

One of the adventurers in the group has a bit of experience and shouldn't be a problem; the other adventurer (my gf) has never played any rpg before.

I ordered the core rule set (player,master,monster-handbook) bundled with xanathars (and a dm-screen). On top of that enough dices and the book "candlekeep mysteries"

Do I need anything else? Any tipps for preparation? How important is the tabletop aspect i see popping up here in some pics?


edit:

Thanks for all of your tips!
