lol same!

“Major cause found; Becky is at it again!”

Speaking from my own experiences… (i’m diagnosed with autism and high-IQ)

People seem to read vulnerabilities they cant really place as general mental fucked upness. For example, I struggle when two people talk to me at the same time, or ask me several questions at once. Have a couple of these incidents happen and some people start treating me as if I’m missing a chromosome. I think when people are dealing with something thy know little about, some would rather fill the blanks with ignorance and stereotypes. You could invite them to learn more, but also… meh, their loss.

People who are familiar with autism, or being overloaded on info… they often automatically slow down, ask about my challenges, ect.

I’ve learned some tricks to demand respect though, you can’t expect everyone to be sensible. I have an elaborate vocabulaire, and though I prefer to talk informal, sometimes talking slightly more formal than the person in front of you can keep them on their toes.

Another direction, I also like to deploy, is to just play the dumdum they think I am. It means less expectations, less bullshit. And honestly, nothing is more satisfying when halfway trough the year they find out you know the source material better than they do.

Another thing that has really worked for me is to surround myself with people who are eager to get to know me as an individual. In time this has also helped me grow the confidence to convince or even demand other people to understand how I work even if it originally isn’t there priority.

Hope his helps

exactly! its not so much that the algo is skewed against us (although…), but mostly the content it has available to it and our lizard brains in general that arn’t helping. (or rather out desire to win the popularity contest and thus manipulate it in a way the algo is sensitive to). Because 90% of the ‘pretty girl’ videos wouldn’t have these stereotypical clickbait dames in them if it didn’t work in the first place

agree, I do have some other things in my feed, but I’d definitely say the algorithm has certain preferences.

Probably has to do with most of my interests being pretty nice compared to ‘ooh pretty girl’. So when it compares what I click on it’s easier to find high frequency recommendations based on other peoples likes. I know fuck all about the algo that makes feeds, but my guess is that’s how it works.

Can we please rebrand ‘X’ as ‘The website formerly known as twitter’?

Also, best post here in a while

Also, don’t get my hopes up -.-

edit: so no prince fans here then ^^"

Oh my dad is very much like your mum. He’s just getting a day older an more mellow :')

I just had this call with my dad. I am a bit behind on chores so I was complaining to him all the things I am doing today, and how great it was when it’s done.

And he just casually said; ‘don’t forget that it’s probably going to rain the rest of the week. today is a nice day’.

So now I’m going to sit in the park for a bit before I do my groceries… the dishes sure don’t mind if I do them tomorrow instead. Get yourself a parent (or friend, or stranger on the internet) to remind you to enjoy life every now and then! (and remind your own friends when you can

yeah that’s where my head is at as well… I’m just not yet emotionally ready for that reality

look, I already said I’ve done a handstand. that’s about as good

I’m sorry about your glove. I hope you can take comfort in the fact that every time i see this picture, it makes me chuckle. But no pressure :)

I havn’t yet, might later today. But I’m convinced its a gpu thing at this point. Might have bashed the hdmi cable a little to hard in the port trying to install it or something dumb like that. Its the only thing that I can think off that slightly makes sense, as it was working perfectly 5 minutes before, and nothing else has happened (other than plugging in an HDD, and I already tried unplugging that)

You’re pretty much describing the process i went trough, with some altered details. Power outage fried my HDD, ended up replacing it. Suddenly monitor doesn’t work after reconnecting it. Tried the DP cable i had lying around, tried the 2nd HDMI port, both with the same HDMI cable and a different one. Tried a different monitor. (i don’t have a 2nd system I could hook my monitor to, but at this point I’m fairly sure it has to do with the HDMI port of the GPU which I simply don’t have the funds to replace… Might have a guy look at it, maby he knows something I don’t)

I only understand half of that, but either way it sounds annoying af

maby I should have googled ‘/s’ first… :') At least we now know 31 is NOT the charm.

Nah :'), at least not the first 30 or so times i tried. Maby 31 is the charm.

it has power. I can use the buttons to select the channel. The only place where my pc seems to recognise it is in the monitor selection screen of my gpu drivers… i cant select it there. Not sure if it recognises the monitor or if its just a ghost from having previously recognised it.

Edit: a different hdmi monitor or cable give the same result. “no Signal”

Oh, yeah that fixed it!

Honestly, I didn’t really bother ordering them. I tend to only go trough my games when I’m either looking for something new to play (in which case I already kinda know what I want) or when I’m super bored, and then I’m gonna go trough most tabs anyway.

It’s mostly just nice to have the junk filtered out ^^

“My favorite game” “My second favorite game” “My third favorite game” “One must not look a gift horse in the mouth”

Its a little more convoluted than I’d like. I Should really merge things like Meh/ Package deal/Discontinued/kinda done though
