Reply to How to eliminate transitions for disability/mobility reasons by HobokenChickn

So the cheapest thing (and what I've done in my house) is to purchase rubber threshold ramps from Amazon (or spinlife, or possibly request some through PCP/PT/OT if that's a thing for you). Make only the minimal adjustments to flooring that you would've done anyway, and then set these mini ramps at each transition and trim them to the desired height and width. Mine showed up with about a 2" height, which I cut down to about 3/4" to match my door threshold. Put some grip tape on the bottom, call it a day. I also put in (well, had a contractor put in) a foam-based ramp in the garage, which has held up phenomenally well and looks nicer than the metal ramp outside (not as nice as the concrete in the back yard, but much cheaper).

But anyway, yeah -- threshold ramps make it so you really don't have to worry about perfect level. Although, I say that for wheelchair purposes, and your tripping concerns are maybe a different animal. If you go that route, buy one taller than you need and then cut it lengthwise at the proper height for your floor.

Anyone played a game called “the technomancer”? Barely any guides online about it. Anyone got any tips that can make the game slightly more bearable?

Sounds like you're pissed off because religious people have a right to exist and express themselves.

​

>None of those things are moral or healthy in a civilized society.

You're talking about a society that has convinced itself that people mutilating their own bodies and engaging in unrestrained hedonism is a healthy thing. A society that is probably a decade or two, (probably less) from making pedophilia an acceptable practice. A society that has already justified the practice of sex with animals in some western nations.

murder, intolerance, slavery, infanticide, misogyny, genocide, incest, homophobia, xenophobia, torture, human sacrifice, sadomasochism, violence, revenge, bigotry

I'll give you homophobia, which is an incredibly new concept, but Christians follow the new testament. Not sure where you get sadomasochism, torture, human sacrifice and bigotry/xenophobia though. Also incest was pretty strictly forbidden in Leviticus, at least when it came to close family.

Also you're making a sweeping generalization that all religions are responsible for all bad things done by every other religion, which is very intellectually dishonest. That'd be like saying atheism is responsible for every evil thing done by atheists.

And seriously, Christian Rock? That's as bad a the Westboro Baptist church? (which is considered a cult) Were you just filling space?

I'm sorry you blame every bad thing in human history on religious people. Maybe it's time you let go of some of that hatred and try to find some joy in life?
