We're supposed to ask that to pretty much any patient with acute psychiatric illness. "Any thoughts of hurting yourself or others" is a pretty commonly asked question in the medical world. Not because we think you have those thoughts, but if you do, it's certainly something we don't want to miss.

is the lack of unique characters. I think the acting, story, screenplay, music, etc are all very good. But all the characters' personalities are just kinda...bland. One of the things that made GoT great (at least for most of the show) was the unique personalities to add some spice...Tyrion, Bronn, Lady Olenna, The Hound, etc. Plus the villains (Joffrey, Ramsey, Walder Frey) were some of the most despicable characters in television. No one in House of the Dragon even comes close to that. Granted, it's still very early in the show and I'm sure plenty more characters will be introduced. But to me that's the one thing this show needs in order to go from very good to great.

So I just bought this game and finished the intro stage. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing or how this game works. Never played a Souls game. Any good videos/resources for a complete beginner?

mods lock this, thanks

I'm just genuinely trying to understand this. I almost always fall on the liberal side of social issues but this is one where I feel a little more conflicted.

she's a woman.

Yes, but is there any argument that she doesn't have an unfair advantage?

I honestly haven't been paying too much attention to this debate and would like to understand it better. I generally am very liberal and supportive of trans people, but I can see how them competing in women's sports can be an issue. Would like to know what the argument supporting her competing is.
