Our dm gave us a circlet of intelligence but instead of using it ourselves the Grey Render that got really attached to our Paladin started messing with it, attained an intelligence score of 19, and now we have Randall the Grey Render who works as our butler
as a reference, this guy lives at our house, wears a waistcoat and monocle, and has the highest intelligence score in the party
Is keeping being friends with someone who talks shit about you a dumb move if she has a hard time fitting at school and you feel bad for her ?
Some people aren’t worth your kindness. You could try talking to her about it but if she won’t say it to your face then you might already be wasting your time
Her having a bad time fitting in at school does not correlate to her talking smack about you, nor should there be a link to it. Why would she have reason to if she has no one else to talk to? I would talk to her directly about it, but it seems like it might be a waste of time to begin with….
Pretty neat how you can tell which of your acquaintances are closeted white supremacists just by noting whether they complain more about looting or police violence 🤔
You sound like the same kind of person that would assume any bald white man is a nazi when really they have cancer or some shit.
Racial supremacy is horrible and disgusting yet you’re out here making it look like a joke because you don’t know the horror of what it really is. Gross.
Lmao eat shit terf
Thanks for showing you have no counter argument.
OP, are POC complaining more about looting white supremacists as well? What if they complain about both issues equally?
My soon to be ex bf I think might be a major douche? I mean all through out he was SUPER sweet & attentive but then.. First week of dating I told him I wanted to wait for sex & he immediately started a ritual of hands down my pants & silently pressured me for sex exactly a week in. & continued only touching me sexually & pressuring no matter my health. & somehow I, as a whole ass adult, didn't realise this was unacceptable behaviour for THREE MONTHS. Ffs I'm stupid n feel like a cheap whore.
You’re not stupid :( but that sucks man, real dick moves on his part. That’s not the type of behavior from a respectful individual and tbh he sounds like a huge creep, you deserve better.
Answer
Anon, your soon to be Ex-BF is a manipulative prick who doesn’t deserve you. Better to know it now instead of discovering it later after having wasted even more time.

If you have accounts like Facebook and Google +/Gmail, or any app that requires permissions to read & write your surface settings, then this is why it happens. Your default settings for location and other permissions (mic and camera) are enabled for constant read-write.
What does this mean?
You can toggle your permissions for these apps for conditions like Never or While Using App. Keep in mind that if you have apps opened up in the background of your phone, then you’re technically using them. Make sure to close them out completely when you don’t want to use them.
But why?
When you have your location permissions enabled for apps, this data is collected and used for targeted marketing. Google is the biggest offender.
Example of how to stop active data collection
You can pause permissions on Google accounts:
You can toggle app settings for surface permissions off:
Friendly Reminder
The more you create accounts by using your Google or Facebook to login, the more active data collection you offer to these companies. Unfortunately, Facebook will never not offer you the chance to not have ads showing on your newsfeed. However, you can shut off channels of active data collection by signing up with an email address and a good ol’ password instead of using SSO (single sign on) with Google or Facebook.
My mother didn’t believe me when I said the reason her phone keeps displaying ads for dog car harnesses is because it eavesdrops on her spoken conversations.
“Watch this,” I said. “I want to buy a wetsuit. I need a wetsuit. Where can I get a wetsuit? Bring me a wetsuit. Wetsuit size small. Women’s wetsuits. Wetsuits for children. Wetsuits for dogs. Discount wetsuits. Hot single wetsuits in my area? Sexy wetsuits. Wetsuits for sale. Purchase me a wetsuit. We need to get a wetsuit. Spend money on a wetsuit! I want to get a wetsuit. Where did you get that wetsuit?”
