Anyone else stupidly bothered by the fact that he used a green reverse? If he’s playing Uno he needs to match the color

FUCK YEAH BUNNIES

They were great though, I owned those two later on and still have a Saturn, some absolute gems for those systems

I couldn’t hide it, gaming was a very hard special interest and hyperfixation, I literally grew up in a console gaming golden age too (early-to-mid 90’s kid so 4th and 5th generation consoles, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Sony Playstation, Nintendo 64, arcade transitioning to 3D as a standard, etc.) so there was no escaping it from anyone

And yes I got made fun of, mostly by classmates but I got some family teasing too

A lot are still doing that and haven’t moved up

(Please at least use SFTP!)

Ok protein spooder

I’m actually still coping with the fact that I can use AI for work. I hate it. It feels like cheating and I learn little from using it vs. figuring the thing out myself, but this is a smart use.

Self-diagnosed with way too many symptoms of Autism and ADHD.

I’m moderately near sighted so my dependence on my vision as an important sense is lower than normal - I don’t focus on visuals very well to begin with, and then Autism on top of it.

If I look at someone, which itself isn’t frequent, I look at their face, I don’t look right at their eyes. Even when I feel like I’m looking toward the eyes I’m kind of “not focusing” on them per se.

People ask me what someone’s eyes look like or their expression was or even eye color, I couldn’t tell you. Brain straight up doesn’t register it unless I go out of my way to monitor it and then I’m weird for doing so.

Eye contact is a bit “intimate” IMO. You don’t need it for day-to-day conversation.

I have eye contacted my wife, but I trust her. Not a regular occurrence. And even then it’s a bit odd, but it’s her, doesn’t bother me as much.

Hah, I have one that likes to just float in front of my shed for some bizarre reason, I always try to avoid it for concern that it could sting but knowing this I may just ignore it now lol, ty

When the comment experiences more sexual attraction than you do 🙃

Maybe we should blow up Earth first, show it who’s boss

Math blue, science green, language yellow, social studies red

There’s a lot of us neurodivergent folks in tech because it suits our needs better than a lot of other fields, and a lot of us just love technology

We’re more prone to being LGBTQIA+ than neurotypical folks, scientifically documented

Makes sense tech would have more trans folks as a result, we pad the numbers a lil bit

This is of course a generalization and actual ND/LGBTQIA+ presence is going to vary based on job, location, how insufferable management is, etc, and not all NDs are LGBTQIA+ and vice versa.

Investors are such emotionally led beings

They thrive if you don’t use pesticides and leaf blowers. I have fireflies where I live in CT. Bonus points for letting the grass grow, though that may also attract rodents and look unsightly to the neighbors.

Modern Israel is not Judaism! It’s not the same theocracy described in the old testament. It’s not even religiously pure, there’s a sizeable Christian and Muslim population. It’s perfectly valid to respect Jews and and their beliefs, and to criticize Netanyahu’s government for attempting to crush Palestine and kill its civilians indiscriminately in raids. Jewish folks in the US and abroad are joining in the protests to stop the war - this isn’t about being antisemitic, this is telling a very atrocious government to stop behaving as a similarly atrocious government did 80 years ago

I got a 10/10 :D

That’s it, I’m only using epoch from now on, that’s enough of your time zone shenanigans

Me: I MUST NOT BE AUTISTIC EVERYTHING IS GREAT

Someone: small talks me

Me: OH GOD I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I’M DOING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

And then you’re one of the ace-spec Autistics so you’re walking around in a massive conspiracy that all everyone wants is sex and society is nothing but sex and you’re the last bastion of humanity that can actually think without using their genitals /hj
