  • No specific habit but I was really bad for routine stuff like getting my hair cut or going to the dentist for a checkup. i figured out that my problem was remembering (or, having the social energy when I do remember) to make these appointments.

    I started just making the following appointment when I attend the current appointment. It takes all the work out of it, and I've been able to keep up a much more structured and healthy life since I started.

    All my fellow neurodivergents who experience executive dysfunction, take note!

  • There's no jubilation at "seeing a big game fail" there's jubilation at seeing a game fail that is developed by a studio that is doing fucked up shit, or a game that is shovelling some fucked up agenda, or the like.

    We dance on the graves of any game developed by Actiblizz, Ubisoft, EA, etc not because they are big games, but because they are developed by evil corporations.

  • Moths are awesome, there's no "Alas" about them!

  • I think it may have been removed because it was a misrepresentation of fact.

    In case you still want to understand, here's a good place to start:

  • You said in your comment "they tend to have appearances" which in itsself alludes to the true fact that there's some who won't be "covered". I was more upset by your dismissal of their experiences than I was by your game design suggestion.

  • I think you'll find a good many intersex folk would have something to say about being "covered" by being entirely excluded by your arbitrary choice of categorisation.

  • Biological sex is far more complicated than small and large gametes. You can choose (somewhat arbitrarily) to define biological sex by one or more of

    • chromosomal sex (which has a variety of variations beyond just xx and xy, so you're fucked for choosing a binary here)
    • hormonal sex (which has a variety of variations beyond just "male hormones" and "female hormones", so you're fucked for choosing a binary here)
    • reproductive sex (which is gonna leave you defining a lot of people quite incorrectly compared to the other criteria listed)
    • how receptive their cells are to particular hormones (which will vary wildly from person to person, so good luck shoving this into a binary)

    The only people who think biological sex is a simple categorisation are people who don't fully understand the biology of sex.

  • But like, not everybody is born one of two biological sexes, so if we're doing away with societal constructs we may as well get rid of this nebulous concept of a rigid biological sex binary.

  • To be clear, nobody was outraged by the devs using gendered language. The outrage was because they rejected multiple PRs to correct it under the guise of it being "political".

  • There's a lot of good advice here, but do you have the means to access therapy? It is invaluable to have an ongoing relationship with a professional who can listen, understand, and help you find your way through the problems that make you feel this way.

  • Oh actually yeah looking at the momodora character again its not even a resemblance besides the white hair and being a centipede

  • That top one is from momodora right?

  • Do cloud platform storage operations count? If so, in the hundreds of terabytes (work)

  • That's so nice! I'm so happy for them! Is there a map of exactly where they're making a comeback so I can avoid those places particularly!
