School-based behavioral health lol

Hey!
I’m new to piefed. I was a part of the Reddit migration originally. Since then, I really enjoyed the conversations.
I’m a behavior therapist by day. Otherwise a bit of an introvert/gamer. I’m always up for a conversation. Unless I’m asleep, which is earlier and earlier these days.

Behavior support following the holiday? Yeah I’m calling out Monday.

Games@lemmy.world•Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future productionEnglish
1·15 hours agoI don’t care if it is seamless…I want to play games and enjoy art made by human brains. Because to me it’s the closest we can get to being in someone else’s experience of a thing. And yeah we still go through our own filter but this game…or song or painting is someone else’s brain creating and I’m just walking through their vision of the world.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a word for when someone is not capable of, or doesn't try to understand verbal communication in a language they are fluent in, similar to functionally illiterate, but for speech?English
2·1 day agoNot capable at all would be non-verbal. This includes vocal and non-vocal verbal communication such as PECs and sign. Non-vocal is not speaking out loud. Able to speak but not doing so may be called selectively verbal.
Not trying at all could have several outcomes and reasons behavioral and medical and would not be any of these. They may not learn to read so lack literacy or may not learn properly how to speak and lack fluency in their first language.
Edit: upon reading some of your other comments, you may be thinking of delays in receptive and expressive language. Which can have many causes.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an unscientific opinion that you firmly hold?English
2·2 days agoTbh that sounds pretty darn good.
Personally, I prefer wry humor. It’s sort of difficult to encounter in the wild while staying wholesome. Nothing dark and twisted for the sake of it, but wit is somehow comforting in the right place. And clever is so engaging…

2·2 days agoSo the kind of upset stomach I’m thinking about is like stomach flu. I know you’re not supposed to have acidic or junky things when you’re so sick you can barely crawl, not sure why it’s the only thing I can tolerate when I’m sick. Hence I felt it was a pretty good answer. :p

Technology@lemmy.world•Macquarie Dictionary announces ‘AI slop’ as its word of the year, beating out Ozempic faceEnglish
9·2 days agoThanks for pointing that out. I lost about 30lbs and my face kinda took on some of those qualities. Especially the prominent bone thing and sunken eyes.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Crocs has teamed up with Xbox to release a pair of shoes designed to look like Xbox controllers, buttons and allEnglish
1·2 days agoYeah I’ve had both and can’t tell the difference. Guess it depends on where you get them.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Crocs has teamed up with Xbox to release a pair of shoes designed to look like Xbox controllers, buttons and allEnglish
31·3 days agoI have reached the stage where I will wear crocs. Human services helps/my feet hurt/ they are universally accepted.
But I refuse to accept they are a premium piece of footwear. They have become so insanely overpriced for what they are (in general)I have found myself buying knockoff crocs…

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why are the *you are the problem* comments so common on Lemmy?English
11·3 days agoWhen I see this kind of thing I lean towards communication skills, emotional immaturity, and impulsivity enabled by just sitting behind a screen rather than being face-to-face with someone.
I’ve seen some Reddit-like behavior here, but thankfully not very much, and I personally don’t engage/respond.
Living the dream implies internal screaming I feel. Maybe it’s just me.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the oldest meme you have on your phone?English
4·3 days agoDeceptive fruit. Banana knife.
I get the concept but this really leads to a dingy /musty smelling enclosure after a while. I’ll take some clean clothes smell even if it’s an extra wash.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Zero tolerance policies in schools and mandatory minimum sentences have the same arguments and issuesEnglish
11·4 days agoWe don’t have this kind of policy in my school—this is my job basically . I work with grade level resource and the students with behavior. I have successfully remediated a lot of repeat aggression. As a team we are able to put families into contact with behavioral resources that are school/tax funded. The worst part of the position is honestly just the adults who want them gone. That’s just kicking the can… It can take weeks to bring dysfunctional behavior into under complete control. Sometimes I feel like I’m saving my kids from these awful adults, and not the other way around.

Gossipy people.
