Autism

Gah, do I feel this. One of the reasons I really like my new neighborhood is that I never see any of those fucking flags. I see Ukraine flags, Palestine flags, rainbow flags, and signs that say "Black Lives Matter" and "Fascists not welcome." A walk around the neighborhood makes me happier now than it did when I lived in the suburbs, even though my mom worries about me being in the sCaRy CiTy.

One glance around, and I know my neighbors are all right. I'm home.

The recommended levels of sodium are trash, newer evidence is showing that 2000mg is perfectly fine. More if you sweat

Try reframing what constitutes toxicity in DBD. I know it really helped me when i started voice acting as the killer with a goofy voice. I don't know what you consider toxic, but some suggestions: killer voice being all lovey-dovey when hitting on hook and face camping, celebratory like a kid someone let win in cards when ground humping, "excuse me maam, you dropped your wallet, hello hello, excuse me!" increasingly desperately when tunneling, etc.

And close end game chat before reading it.

Have you tried Factorio or Satisfactory?

That DbD thing is extremely relatable.

Not been diagnosed but absolutely lost my shit recently when friends mugged me off playing tennis, I don't even care about the result.

I need to go get help

I feel this. My job is surrounded by one-way streets, with angled back-in parking everywhere. So you don’t even need to parallel park, you just back into the spots to park, and then pull straight out (matching the direction of traffic on the one-way street) when you leave. It’s literally all the best parts of parallel parking, with none of the downsides.

We regularly have people pull u-turns on the one-way streets to park nose-in. No amount of signs have helped, because you can’t make people read. It’s a ticketable offense, (same as if you had parallel parked facing the wrong direction on a one-way street) and the local PD regularly makes sweeps every few hours to check… And they’ll easily ticket 10-20 people on busy days. There have even been instances where the cop was standing there writing a ticket for it, when someone pulled in right next to them. And then they’d argue with the cop that they should be allowed to park however they want.

At first, seeing people swing super wide to pull into the spots would piss me off. Then for a while it was amusing, because I knew I’d get to see them rage about the ticket on their windshield while I sit in my office. But now it’s just disappointing. Like every time I see it, I lose a little more faith in humanity. The old joke about “make something idiot-proof and they’ll invent a better idiot” always rings true.

Harumph.
