Same. Posted banksys message for anyone who is curious.
On the train and bus to work mostly.
Nicht jeder Termin auf der Arbeitsstelle ist Arbeitszeit. Zum Beispiel weihnachtsfeier im Büro. Dort ist in der Regel eben auch keine Anwesenheitspflicht.
Wenn die Planung in die Rahmen Arbeitszeit fällt und dort die Anwesenheit angeordnet ist, hat man ohnehin zu erscheinen.
Man kann einen Mitarbeiter nicht benachteiligen, weil er den Termin versäumt. Kann ja auch wegen Krankheit sein. Aber oft gibt es fristen für die Planung und falls sich ein Mitarbeiter trotz wiederholter Gelegenheit der Planung verweigert, wird es schwierig für den Kollegen.
Ist hier ja aber noch nicht der Fall.
It says looking at bugs all day. That state where you slowly realize that you have no idea how to fix them or what even causes them.
Wenn Anwesenheitspflicht ist, dann is es Arbeitszeit. So als Faustregel.
Wenn dir die genaue Zeit deines Urlaubs unwichtig ist und du dich am Ende nach allen anderen richten willst, kannst du sicherlich argumentieren, dass du nicht kommen brauchst.
Du kannst fragen, wie lange das die letzte. Jahre ca. gedauert hat. Die machen das sicher nicht zum ersten Mal.
Pettigrew I also really hated as a kid. Lockhart I thought was kind of funny if still evil but I always had a thing for con artist type characters.
Bellatrix was more spooky than anything else to me.
When I first read the books Voldemort was only on number 4. Umbridge, Rita Skeeter and Lucius were all ahead of him.
The advantage of listening to non ad friendly music.
I'd say it's more likely Tucker Carlson was created and send to the world by demonic forces.
Yes, to keep the gayquilibrium in balance.
Every closet door closed is a closet door opened for someone else.
As a chemist when I read such a title I already know it's one of those organic chemistry rule of thumb rules. All of them are named and most of them old and from text books. Such rules are useful rules for drawing stick figures of molecules. They are not the same as actual rules of physics for example.
But it's always cool when someone finds out how to make molecular structures we thought wouldn't work.
Sieht man auch an den Milliarden Dividende die dieses Jahr ausgeschüttet wurden.
Das Geld muss nun auf Arbeiterseite eingespart werden.
I gave away my DnD books to strangers.
Earlier today I was browsing through shelves at a toy store to look for a last gift for one of my daughters. That's when I hear an excited voice ask one of the store employees 'do you have dungeons and dragons?'. I listen in and learn that they do not have any DnD material at all and also can't order it. I walk a bit closer and see 3 12 year old ish boys and a girl with disappointed faces. The employee also can't help them where to find dungeons and dragons products.
Now I live in Germany where you can't find dnd boxes at the likes of Target like in the US for example. In fact I know of 2 stores in the whole city which carry DnD books and material.
I step in and ask if I may help out with the question. I tell them that there are 2 stores which carry the books, dice and more on the other side of the city. They said that's far away but they'll try to go there in Saturday.
We get talking and they tell me about how they are looking to start a dnd club at school and also play at home. They got a set of dice and saved around 70 euros for a book and maybe some more dice and such. I tell them that'll buy them the players handbook which is a good starting point and maybe some extra dice.
They ask me if I played as a kid and I said yes, in fact I still do and I'll be playing tonight. That's when I made a weird decision in my head. I had all my stuff already with me so I don't have to go back home between work and game night. I opened my backpack and gave them my copies of the PHB and Monster Manual. They were super excited and actually insisted to pay me but I'd have felt bad taking money from them.
I didn't want to post this as virtue signaling stuff or anything. It was just kind of a crazy decision I made that I think was kinda cool. They just reminded me so much of me when I started out. We were lucky to get our first dnd books gifted by an older brother of one of our group's members. So I wanted to pay it forward. Now I just have to figure out how to run tonight's game without my books.
ASOIAF Lannister Guardsmen - my first ever wargame unit painted
I recently got into my first tabletop Miniatures wargame, a song of ice and fire. This is my first unit painted. Before I only ever painted DnD and Pathfinder minis which at best I used for OPR fantasy Skirmish.
Anger issues? 💢
Hey. I was told having issues controlling anger or emotions in general can be related to ADHD. I know I get WAY angrier than anyone should ever be sometimes.
Especially when injustice and ignorance come my way. I get furious beyond anything I've ever seen or heard of anyone else talk about. Maybe aside from depictions of killers or berserkers in fiction. It's not cool.
Only a few times have I gotten in trouble for it luckily and I never actually done anything more than shout the most disgusting insults at someone.
Now I do feel bad afterwards if I got angry at someone I like. But often enough I feel they fucking deserved it. If someone is an ignorant asshole willingly ruining someone's day, week or life they deserve some ruin thrown back at them. I know this might not be a good and healthy thing to think. But if someone provokes someone don't they ask to be yelled at?
I know they do this to 'win the argument' because of that imo idiotic notion that who yells first is wrong. But honestly I rarely care to be right enough for shit to matter.
I've read a few books on anger management and some techniques help a bit. But the amount of anger described in the book seems so very mild to me in comparison to what I experience and how fast it builds up. One book told me to count to three. I am ready to launch nukes before I reach 1. That won't work.
And I don't get angry at something. I have pure rage and fury, hatred and contempt for existence itself at those moments. Angry really doesn't cut it. It's scorched earth, blown it all up and piss on the ruins kind of anger.
So anyone else experience this? Any tips to deal with this shit?
How do you all like the Dorfromatik board game?
Hey everyone.
I got the steam game on a sale some time ago. Now my wife is playing it a lot more than me through family share. Her birthday is coming up and I'm thinking about getting the game for her as it also won Spiel des Jahres this year.
Have any of you played the game? I'd be happy to hear any experiences you want to share.
Lizardfolk tribe I painted for my Pathfinder 2e game
If you look closely there are some parts where the 3D print failed. I got to hide some with green stuff and left the rest. Still decided to paint these and I'm pretty happy with the results. I think sometimes it's important to settle with good enough in this hobby.
My collection of all self crafted terrain for Tabletop RPGs
Do we even do terrain here? Well I put some minis on it so I am pretty sure this still counts. ;) I finally finished a large chunk of the terrain I had begun a few months ago so I put it on the table to see some possible layouts.
All terrain is crafted from scratch from XPS foam, sand, toothpicks, some bits, tufts and moss. Heavily inspired by Black Magic Craft on YouTube (namely modular ruins, dungeon tiles, pillars, dungeon stackers). The acid pools and spike traps I came up with myself.
Results are in of my long ADHD diagnosis process and it is a resounding: Maybe
I'm posting because I'm a bit bummed out I guess. I began the whole diagnosis process because I wanted clarity of wtf is going on with me. A clear no it's not ADHD would maybe even have been a more satisfying answer than this.
Apparently I either have ADHD and my high intelligence allows me to compensate so much it masks symptoms for the tests. They did two intelligence tests which came out way above average it seems. I hope this doesn't come off as bragging. It really isn't as much of a gift as it may seem.
Or I don't have ADHD but my cognitive function shows some similarities. And I'm also super smart. But somehow I can't put it to use when it comes to my life due to issues with emotional regulation and tolerance for frustration which I don't have much off.
How this affects my life is I can't focus or do things I don't find interesting at all. Same with things that don't offer anything new to me. Being intelligent means I understand and figure out new things super quickly. But that means I get bored quicker and then struggle to do the thing. So I hopped jobs, surprise everyone how crazy good I am at the job and what a fast learner I am and whatnot. Then I hop job to the next. It never amounts to anything. And I got burnout or boreout. Depression. All that fun stuff.
Buf They can't tell for sure which one it is by the metrics they use. Which just is so unsatisfying after it took to long.
The good news is the result still qualifies me for trying out meds should I decide to do so. Same for getting therapy paid for by insurance. It's nice to have options so I'm happy for that.
Thanks for letting me vent my frustrations.
