  • I’ve spent 5 years wanting to play The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time on my computer. Finally bought a USB to Controller port thing and the buttons were like not mapping in a way that made sense. Change a few buttons and they’re still wrong. Really frustrating lol So I unplugged it and turned it off. I could always play on my Game Cube or N64 but was thinking of streaming it so yeah. I’ll sort it out but had had enough for the day at that point.

    Been playing some Marvel Rivals and it’s just like Overwatch but better. Except their ‘Lucio Ball’/Rocket League mode suuuuuuucks and is mega frustrating since the ball detection is janky. Anyway yeah I also hate getting bitched at by damage dealers when I’m the only healer. Or when they run off and die in some random place. Like yeah my person I can’t heal you on the other side of the map while I have a DPS or two tunneling me as everyone ignores that I’m dying.



  • Indeed it is. I’ve said before in other posts that it’s insane how you can’t watch local sports without a cable plan unless you watch the NFL. And the NFL is moving in that direction too though the only positive is that if the team is in your local market for the time being you can still see it on broadcast TV unlike the MLB. For me at least I’m not incentivized to pay for every subscription service to get access to games. Nor am I going to pay that insane $80 a month Hulu w/ TV, Sling, etc bullshit that’s just cable TV but streamed.








  • For me a lot of meltdowns feel like spiraling. Unable to communicate how I feel, feeling alone/separated, racing thoughts that run the gamete from anxious to depressing. Typically I want to reach out and connect to someone but I can’t and that makes it worse somehow. It’s scary to deal with especially as a lot of it feels so irrational yet it has a real impact.







  • No experience with that book, but a lot of literature has autistim coded characters. Lot, well sort of, debate in the Warhammer 40k communities about a fair number of autism coded characters there. I can’t remember who all they’ve said since I avoid a lot of the conversations but if I remember right a fair number of Space Marines, and their ‘traitor’ brethren are ‘autistic’.




  • I loved the campaign and had a lot of fun initially post campaign. But with more and more of the content locked behind ‘having a group’ I’ve found myself playing less and less. The pinnacle grind has been painful so far, especially as stuff will drop at a point that’s useful, other times the same content will drop it lower, and even other times the same content won’t drop anything. It’s just all putting me off. Especially the insane damage that’s going out now. Dying 40 times in a match made thing because the enemies one shot is boring.
