I love watching people play this game for the first time *spoilers ahead*

I finished and got the platinum for the game earlier in the year and my partner has started playing recently. It’s so fun to sit there and watch him not have a single clue about what is happening.

He just killed the second axon and got the scene back at camp where verso hugs Alicia before Renoir comes up and he just innocently said “that’s just Maelle”. I laughed along and was like “yeah ikr they look quite similar” but he has literally no idea 😂. I can’t wait for his reaction when he finds out!

He was getting bummed out too because he was like “oh I don’t want the game to end when I kill the paintress, I don’t want the story to be over” and I just had to contain myself so bad! It’s so fun.

Wondering if this type of mod exists or could exist in the future?

Hi everyone, I’ve been playing bg3 since launch on ps5 and have been very grateful for every single mod author who not only spends time to make mods but to also make them available for console.

One mod I would love to see is a mod for a prosthetic arm/s as it is very cool representation and would be cool to see as a disabled person and would also fit really well within the game. They could even have abilities and stuff so it’s almost like a weapon.

I’m not sure how possible this is within the toolkit and especially for console but I’m wondering if anyone is thinking about making a similar mod? I would make it myself but I definitely do not have the skill set for something like that.

Struggling with people’s perception of me

For context I am autistic but the things I am struggling with in terms of imposter syndrome are invisible physical disabilities. I struggle a lot with tiredness and pain when having to walk far. Far for me can include more than 20 minutes in a shop for example. This has caused issues where me and my partner want to go out and do things that could be all day activities but I get too tired to do them or I need a lot of breaks because my legs are in a lot of pain.

We are planning to go somewhere this weekend which involves a lot of walking and the place does have manual wheelchairs available for visitors to use. I am scared to use them though because I follow a lot of disabled content creators and would be too scared to get comments like “aren’t you too young for a wheelchair” or “but you can still walk”. I know these comments are wrong but I’m so scared of receiving them. I also feel like because I can push through even with lots of breaks that maybe I shouldn’t use a wheelchair and seeing as there are limited available they should be kept for someone else.

It’s stupid because outside of my own situation I know that people use wheelchairs for many different reasons and there’s no gate keeping thing on how old you have to be or what disability you have. I know people can be ambulatory users and still walk etc. I guess maybe it isn’t internalised ableism but rather just a fear of what other people will say to me? Anyway I’m unsure what to do in regards to this weekend because like I say I’m so scared of other peoples perceptions.

My mum is really wearing me down

*I will mention some themes including passing of a family member and abuse but not go into detail about them.*

So my mum has been married to my stepdad for a long time, he has been very consistently verbally and emotionally abusive to me from early on (I moved out 6 years ago, however I still visit twice a year though through her manipulation), and verbally, emotionally and physically abusive to my mum. I have told her I hate him and that he’s traumatised me but she keeps digging her heels in more and more.

Over the new year he did something that was absolutely disgusting behaviour which finally made my family cut off ties with my mum and my stepdad. I thought this would be enough to jolt her out of her delusions as she loves her family. Since then though she has gotten so so so much worse and now actively slanders those family members.

I have had an awful year, my dad passed away and I had to move flats during that time and have to live with a (genuinely diagnosed) narcissistic person. My mum knows this and yet at every chance she gets she slanders my dead dad to me or slanders my family members who disowned her. I told her that it wasn’t acceptable and told her the family’s point of view. She called me ungrateful and started talking behind my back to my brother (he’s nice so he was telling me what she was saying) and saying stuff like she didn’t raise me to be nasty.

I’m so sick of her manipulation and her lies and her inability to try to believe me when I tell her my stepdad is one of the worst people alive and I don’t want to be around him. I’m just so sick of it and I don’t even go up there that often at all and I’m still being treated like a child she can control.

Using a binder

I wanted to know if it’s ok to use a binder. I don’t have much top dysphoria although I definitely have a slight amount, enough that I don’t like talking about that area really.

However the main reason is I’m really small and slight framed but this area is kind of big in a way that when I wear loose T-shirts they kind of just make my tshirt go out instead of straight down. This makes me dysphoric but also as someone struggling with body dysmorphia and am recovering from an eating disorder it kind of creates this really exaggerated form in my head that makes me super super paranoid.

I know these aren’t typical reasons for wanting to wear a binder but I feel like if I looked flatter overall it might help dysphoria and dysmorphia wise. This would only really be outside anyway as in doors I wear pyjamas and no bra that exentuates (no clue how to spell that word) these things. I do want to have a more masc look as well if that helps.

Reliable clothing brands for small people who want to dress queer

I am really struggling to find clothes and have always had this issue. I’m 4’11” and very skinny and have a very slight frame. For trousers and shorts in particular I’m really struggling. I can’t shop in the mens because even an XS falls off me.

I tried shopping in *the other one* and even then stuff is too big on the waist or too long. I bought some cargo shorts I really liked, hoping they’d be at just above my knee length but they were halfway down my calves and falling off at the waist and this was size S, I’m going to try an XS size of these shorts but I don’t think they’ll magically be above my knee with this.

Does anyone know any brands or stores (based in the UK if relevant) that does clothing for people who are small, kind of needs to be alternative fashion as well not the kind of stuff a Primark etc would stock?

My dad passed recently

So my dad passed away recently (this is the only time I’ll mention it for those sensitive to the subject), about 2 months ago.

My aunt has asked me whether I had experienced anything paranormal because her and my grandparents were, apparently my grandparents were seeing my dad. I assumed that one because they both have his ashes (mine is getting sorted) maybe that could stir up some sort of residual energy of some sort. Two I also assumed that this was happening to them as a part of grief. I’m a massive skeptic although I’ve had past experiences that would make skeptics become believers, I just don’t know if I’m fully able to believe what I saw.

However, this morning I was awoken from a deep sleep to the sound of someone saying my name and bolted upright immediately. I immediately recognised it as a male voice and at first thought my partner might have forgotten something on his way to work and come back but he hadn’t. It didn’t sound like it was a part of a dream because my body had such an instant flight or fight reaction to wake me up instantly as if something in the room said that. I don’t know what to think of this experience and obviously I’m not equating it to being my dad but it is interesting to think about.

Letters of administration (England)

Based in England.

Hello everyone, I’m posting on here again. So I am trying to apply for letters of administration as my dad died and didn’t leave a will. In section 3.2 it asks how many children over 18 there are and there is me and my brother. Further more in section 3.5 it asks for the relationship of each person applying however only I am applying. Is this fine or should both my brother and I be applying together?

I thought I was able to just apply and then distribute whatever with him afterwards but now I’m not sure if that’s allowed. Do I need to get him to sign something that says he doesn’t want to do it or can I just do it without him? For context we both agreed that I would be the one to do it. I also will be applying online, I just downloaded the form beforehand so I could get an idea of the questions.

Feeling really down about ableism

As the flair says this is a vent but I don’t specifically need advice as nothing can be done but some kind words would be appreciated.

I can’t go into much detail either because this person also has autism and I’m not sure if they use Reddit and would be able to identify me through this post.

Today I was told that my inability to do a lot of things as a level 2 semi verbal autistic person was an annoyance, a hindrance and a source of resentment to someone I am forced to coexist with in day to day life. This person is level 1 (not comparing for competition but my support needs are a lot higher and it feels I’m not given any grace for this) and seems to think that despite my struggles I should be doing something that is literally impossible for me to do as well as do things that do not concern me and aren’t anything to do with me. Sorry to be vague here again.

It’s really made me upset as I feel no one understands my issues and even upon my issues being explained to this person by someone else, they would not listen to reason and continued talking about me behind my back (the other person was defending me). It’s really disheartening and sad and I wish mean people weren’t the way they are as it’s sort of ruined my day.

Fashion tips for summer

So I’m non binary (obviously), my preferred taste levels is somewhere between butch lesbian vibes - queer masc vibes - masc vibes. And yes I know there’s no one way to be anything but I’m talking about no makeup or jewellery, no skirts or dresses just more stereotypically masc shit.

It’s gotten to summer and I’m not sure what to wear so I would love some advice and help from people. I’m 4”11 and very skinny and slight framed (although unfortunately bigger in areas I do not particularly like) so a lot of the time shopping in the men’s section doesn’t really work for me as stuff will be way way too big.

In terms of stuff I wear not in summer I really like smart trousers, shirt and a waistcoat but that’s very formal. I like the idea of those tank tops that have the longer sleeves but I’m not sure. I don’t really like just plain men’s clothes as I’m trying to look a bit queer. Does anyone have any ideas for stuff I could wear in the summer, especially shorts wise I don’t know what would look good, but also t-shirt wise?

Death in service payment (ENGLAND)

Based in England.

This is approximately my third or fourth post in this subreddit now. To summarise previous posts, my father passed away in March with no will and due to him being divorced I am dealing with his estate. We found out that his estate was really small as he didn’t own any property, financed a car which we gave back, didn’t have any funds or trusts etc and the amount in his bank account was paid straight to me without need for letters of administration. Since then I have been able to close all of his accounts and pay for everything and was advised by people here and solicitors to keep doing so until we ran into a wall that required letters of administration. I’ve now ran into that wall.

I have received news about his death in service and he didn’t do a nomination form which now means it will be sent to the estate and they require letters of administration to be able to release the payment. I have a few questions I need help with if possible, mostly regarding evaluating the estate so that I can apply for letters of administration:

  1. Will this lump sum payment be a part of the estate’s evaluation? As in when calculating do I add that amount in as well?

  2. I have spent some of his money from his account to settle debts and close accounts. Do I put in the amount that is left or the amount that I started with?

  3. Seeing as he didn’t have any property, owned vehicles, trusts, funds etc what do we class as high value items to add to the valuation? To make a list of the highest value items he owned he had: a couple of expensive guitars that valued about £2000 together (£1000 each), an amplifier that cost between £500-£1000, a stack of vinyls that are now used and some small electrical items such as the old model Xbox, a small tv and a Wii. Are any of these worth mentioning at all?

  4. If the valuation comes out at more than £5,000 to I pay the £300 out of his money from his account?

Thanks in advance for the anyone responding to this long post.
