Adding on to this, you can find stats about high rates of "desistence" among children and youth with GID(C) diagnoses (I'm not sure what that become in DSM-V when GID became "Gender Dysphoria"). However, these stats need to be understood in the context of what the criteria for GID(C) are--they're incredibly broad. Any mildly gender-non-conforming child can fit the criteria if their parents dislike their gender non-conformity (there's a quasi-conspiracy theory that it was a backdoor to "treating" "pre-homosexual" kids after the removal of homosexuality from the DSM). It's no shock that most of these kids don't grow up to be trans--they mostly weren't making a statement about their gender identity in the first place!

I was thinking more solo board games -- I have roughly no TTRPG experience, though I'd be willing to try. (I last played D&D probably 20 years ago in high school. It was one of those things that I felt I was supposed to be into, but, when push came to shove, it wasn't my jam. Now, that was also true of computer games and I like some now.)

Fair. :) What else do you find works well solo? I don't have many local friends, so I'm either solo or online.

It's a bit of a learning curve, but I find I like Spirit Island playing two spirits at once better than a single spirit.

If you have Tabletop Simulator, there's an excellent Spirit Island mod. I believe people organize games there on the Discord (linked from the subreddit...) but I've never played with strangers.

It doubly makes me roll my eyes due to the fact that a large reason why we’re even back in the office now was because the local government feeling that it was the duty of us office workers to support downtown restaurants/businesses.

I swear a significant chunk of my employer's motivation to get people into the office is that they're paying rent on it.
