Here is just one of the many videos I could find describing the difference between physical and chemical sunscreens. In short, both, to an extent the physical kind included, absorb and transform it into heat. Consumers can get chemical kinds that don't leave a white cast, offer varying levels of protection, dry fairly quickly, and are easy to apply under makeup if that's a concern. I know because I've used a couple brands with these things in mind and have loved them for years.

Yay! Since I've transitioned from Google's calendar, this was one of the features I was missing. Happy to be able to differentiate between personal and professional appointments better now. I echo what @edisondotme@monero.town is saying.

That definitely does make it clearer... On a side note, I can appreciate a Stranger in a Strange Land reference when I see one.

Just for safety's sake, I would advise more for a diffuser with or without a light for aromatherapy. Lit candles unattended are notorious for fire-related accidents, and diffusers can act as a mini humidifier for some. But that's just imo.

Yes, outside of Las Vegas, NV and The French Quarter, LA (other places noted below in comments, apparently). ~~I don't know any place that allows it, but I could be wrong.~~ I think it harkens back to the days of Prohibition with dry counties. Someone can correct me, as my history recollection isn't great. I'm guessing it's not much of a problem in the UK, or wherever you are located?

EDIT: Added other places others listed

I think that's because the descriptors come after the noun in reporting. Similar to how documentation is done for other professions, like healthcare. If it's out of the context of reporting, or other situations listed in the site below, it sounds grammatically strange or rude.

Maybe it's too early in the morning, but can you explain what you mean by the latter point? I'm under the impression trans treatment is provided for individuals seeking gender affirming care, with parent agreement if the individual is a minor. Your statement sounds like only the parent is consenting...

EDIT: Thanks, EatATaco. So my confusion lies in the equating puberty to hormone therapy. Similar, but not the same.

When first starting out, I think relaxed games that help a player get used to left and right directions (side-scrolling or platform) and timing on the controls is a good start. Then evolve into camera and movement based controls.

My suggestions are starting with these:

My Brother Rabbit

The Between Gardens

Dawn (may have some camera control, but this is the most relaxing game I've played for that)

Then move on to these:

La Rana

The Room Series

Aim Labs or any shooting game that has tutorials/ practice mode (for FPS practice)

These games are found on steam. Note, most of these are casual/puzzle based.

I don't have much experience with co-op, so can't help you there. But I do like the suggestions so far based on reviews.

Just another reason I like the nordic countries. So much support for its citizens.

Hate to be THAT person, but it's sadism if you are referring to the guy who said it. Misogyny often breeds both though, so I can imagine the confusion.

It's unfortunate that sometimes parents can't be there for their little ones because of their own issues, but it doesn't mean you aren't deserving of compassion (be it as a child or adult). As a therapist, I hope your week goes well and remember today is a new day for something good to happen.

The key is to not invite them in, silly. But, then again, who would be inviting trick 'r treaters in? Eh, it's late, don't mind me...
