The One with the Heart of a God
Thirty years ago, all the gods tore each other apart, and nowadays people dive to the bottom of the ocean to find and sell as "godware" what pieces they can for their magical properties. After a heist gone wrong, the main character is indentured to work for a scientist on an isolated island where all the priests who went mad when the gods died spend their days. But then his friend shows up and they discover a piece of godware which has amazing healing properties...the still-beating heart of a god.

Along the way he gets beat up so incredibly often, bullies a number of magical creatures, befriends pigeons and a woman who really wants to kill him personally.

I got big dog one of those kong puzzle feeders that he has to roll around to get kibbles out and it was a lot of fun watching him figure it out. I only let him work at it for 20 minutes before I opened it and dumped his food in a dish, because I didn't want him to get frustrated, but that's still 10× his normal meal speed
grison-in-space answered:
yesssssss they are so good. puzzle feeders are really fun for both watching and intervening!
If you want him to get good at it, let him be a little frustrated as long as he’s still engaged with the toy and willing to poke at it! sometimes they need a little bit of support to get the core basic concept (as with the Tug-A-Jugs I have for example) but once they have the idea it’s pretty fun.
expect him to learn to yeet those kong wobblers into the wall though. that’s the natural end stage for ‘em in my experience… because if you fling 'em hard enough they scatter kibble everywhere.
It’s such good enrichment!
He’s gotten pretty good at pushing it around with his nose. His problem is mostly that he will push it into a corner and get it stuck; at which point, I pull it out and roll it to let some kibble out. I was surprised by how quickly he learned that sticking his tongue in the hole wasn’t going to work. However, it does take quite a while to get two cups of food out of a little hole.

That's not just a weird angle either, they always look like that.
A young man was kicked out of of New Jersey movie theater after using the bathroom with his mom. This instantly made me angry because some people with high support needs do need help using the bathroom sometimes.
According to this report:
The incident began when Gallinaro’s son needed to use the bathroom and she took him into the women’s restroom. There is no family restroom at the Cinemark in Hazlet, according to the lawsuit.
“My son is not equipped to go into a men’s bathroom in a public setting alone,” Gallinaro told NJ Advance Media last week. “I took him to the women’s bathroom.”
There were other women in the restroom, some of them mothers, she said.
“Right away, they see he’s with me. They pick up why he’s in the bathroom with me,” she said, noting that she noticed one woman “looking at me smiling.”
The 59-year-old manager of the movie theater wasn’t as understanding, the suit alleges.
The manager angrily approached and “shouted blatantly discriminatory remarks” toward the mother and the 15-year-old, the lawsuit alleges.
“A grown man should not be in the women’s restroom,” the manager said in the crowded lobby, according to the suit. “This is not a transgender bathroom.”
Even though there were no other complaints, the manager allegedly ordered the Gallinaros off the property and directed an assistant manager to call the police, the suit states.
I did some research to find out if my chronic iron deficiency is going to fuck me up (doctors seem to think the only risk is making me anemic again). My main take away is that iron deficiency seems to suffer from the same affliction of most other things that primary affect women.
One article contained this sentence: “Observation studies have additionally suggested that physicians have significant knowledge gaps in diagnosing and treating iron deficiency.“ And the tl/dr of the article was basically, the oral iron supplements currently available are shiity, as are the guidelines for how to use them.
