Me when my friend says they finished writing another chapter of their book but I can’t read it yet
Very accurate. I really don’t care to pretend around people. If you’re being an idiot I’m inclined to either say something about it or let my distaste for it, and you, be very evident. Usually the latter. But also sometimes there’s nothing you can do and so you just gotta walk away because if you don’t you’re going to lose braincells.
One of my favourite parts about autistic people is how you can use other peoples' reflections of them like an echolocation bullshit detector. Like they personally do not need to do shit for this to work, they just passively emit their own autistic vibe that bounces off every surface around them, and you can assess another person's level of self-awareness by how they reflect it back.
"Autistic people do not understand social hierarchy" nope, they understand you're supposed to be an authority here, but they won't politely pretend to respect you if they think you're incompetent.
"Autistic people do not understand humour" nope, they just don't politely pretend to laugh to humour you, and you are simply not funny.
"Autistic people are rude" nope, they just don't think it's polite to lie to you, and don't care about trying to tell you what they think you want to hear instead of telling you what they think.
"Autistic people sometimes have emotional meltdowns for absolutely no reason" nope, you're just insufferable to be around and the person with the lowest tolerance of your shit is simply the canary in the coal mine who breaks first.
My fella, I feel this on a deeply personal level. All we can do is keep trying. It’s not gonna work all the time, hard days will happen. But just keep trying every day. Any small victory is a victory worth celebrating. Keep on being you mate. You’re worth so much more than you could believe.
TRIGGER WARNING - low self esteem and self worth
I’m always trying to be positive and trying to love myself but sometimes I can’t help but wish I wasn’t autistic.
Maybe people would accept if I wasn’t so different
Maybe i would be enough if I was able to just know what to do like everyone else
Maybe people would stay
Maybe they would love me…
Too real lol
venting is only annoying when i do it btw. everybody else is innocent and free of sin
I finally got around to watching Secret Level, and boy was I not disappointed by the Warhammer 40K episode. Having only gotten into 40K within the last year, I gotta say that Daemon had such a cool design, but there was no way it had a chance against my boy Titus. Like I’m sorry. I may be new but even I know that named characters in this setting are not going to lose to some unnamed enemy.
If you don’t like me when I’m being weird, you ain’t gonna like me at all.
This is so well done! Thought I’d share, but go check out the original creator!

Heck yeah
I am very grateful for the Wolfenstein reboots and the Sniper Elite games because while gaming as an art form has come a long way and all the beautiful stories and complex characters are really wonderful and important, sometimes we need to remember our heritage as gamers, go back to our roots for a bit, and shoot a bunch of nazis in the face
No. I don’t wanna. My WIP will wait for me like it always has (I’ve got serious writers block rn and am taking a break from writing)
Yeah that person usually tends to be myself anyway because I’m such a moron sometimes lol
What’d you expect? A fancy cave filled with gold? Well too bad. What ya see is what ya get. Stick around a while, make yourself comfy. Absolutely no politics, idc who the crap you are. This is a safe space. We’ve got blankets, stuffed animals, and hot chocolate. Ask box is always open too
