This is when spells that require saving throws come in handy

My kids only have one set of grandparents active in their lives, my parents (who are fortunately very active and great with them). My wife's mother died before we even met so of course the kids never knew her either. And her dad is just kind of an asshole, she put up with him for years but when he started being mean to me in front of the kids she decided she was done - she didn't want to risk him being mean to them. It's not even maliciously mean he just thinks it's funny to insult people and gets butthurt when people "can't take a joke".
The only person in either of our families who is a regular consumer of FOX news is her grandpa (her Dad's stepfather), and he's truly one of the sweetest and most loving people I've ever met. He just lives in rural Indiana and that's what they watch there.
Re the video games, yes absolutely I've done this. I don't think I've 100% finished a game, at least not in the last 20 years. Playing through the latest Zelda game I had to pick my moment when to go take on the final boss carefully, I know that once I beat a game I'm a lot less inclined to keep going on side quests and finding shrines/korok seeds/whatever collectibles that particular game has. So I wanted to do as much of that as I could before going after Ganondorf, but I also didn't want to wait too long because if I make myself do ALL the side quests and get ALL the collectibles I'll burn and not even bother finishing the game.
Add in a dash of autistic hyperfocus and you can in fact teach yourself enough to get the project done.
Doesn't mean you WILL get it done of course.
Oh neat, I didn't know that! Thanks.
My phone (Pixel 6) doesn't have one but I wish it did. I still use an aux cord to listen in my car or to plug into my amplifier when I practice on headphones, so I have to use 3.5mm to USB-C converter dongles. I also can't charge my phone while using an aux cable now which is annoying.
Yeah, benzos are not too be fucked with but saying they have no medical purpose is just flat out wrong
No, this is business as usual for Reddit

I was a huge Beatles fan in middle school and loved Paul McCartney's bass lines (still do). My uncle is also a bass player so that influenced it a bit.
What made me want to stick with it though, is just how much fun it is.
Yep. I like to have a complete drum track and maybe a scratch guitar/vocal track just to help me track transitions. It's easier for the bass to record in time to drums than vice versa, and likewise it's useful for guitars, vocals, and other melodic instruments to come after the rhythm section is laid down.
Either that or a click track, but my drummer doesn't like playing to a click.
I haven't deleted my account but it's been dormant for a while. I guess at some point it'll get deleted if I don't touch it, which... fine, I guess.
