Poop-Toot Riot ⁽ʳᶦᵒᵗ⁾ @Rewhan@awoo.space

Can we hurry up on the march towards our cyberpunk future? I'd actually be really cool with multiple different chasis for whatever mood I'm in, or at the very least hot-swappable parts.

I don't think I could permanently commit to becoming female, but I'd be cool with oscillating back and forth from time to time. I'm not overly attached to my present gender anyway.

@Nerts @MillennialDog@mastodon.social owo pwease take me home

@MillennialDog@mastodon.social Take me down to the provolone city where the grass is cheese and the girls are also cheese.

@Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town Redistribute the people's wealth by stripping them for parts and selling the scrap.

Having written all this out, it occurs to me I don't think I have four other games I can talk this much about. Nothing quite encapsulates an aspect of my existence in the same way TF2 did...

Oddly enough, TF2 is where I'm most focused, despite the fact that, by all accounts, I should be WAY overstimulated and shut down, like I do in real life.

But perhaps it's because I understand TF2's rules better than I do Real Life. I know what every action and reaction will be.

Overwatch, while good, hasn't been able to fill the void in my heart left by TF2.

This was, of course, before everything went pants-on-head stupid with crates unlockables and cosmetic tat.

...I miss 2009 TF2

#1 - Team Fortress 2

Huh? TF2 has no meaningful story, and characters are kinda tropey.

Yeah but, sit down to play it anyway. You'll immerse yourself in the numerous classes, their various behaviours, their toolkits, all the gunfire, explosions and movement going on around you every second of every match. From the outside it probably looks like pure chaos, but there's rules and systems at work.

That's a little bit what having ADD and Asperger's is like.

I love Warhammer and 40k.

Wish their lore wasn't so highkey racist/sexist tho... :c

Still fixated on the idea of writing a genderfluid slime, but I kinda feel like... it's not my place to do so? I mean, being a predominantly cishet dude.

I didn't get a 'childhood' as such, because I was a latchkey kid who had to look after his high-functioning Autistic sister. She wouldn't cook for herself until she was almost adult aged, and even then, only the most rudimentary stuff if it's not prepackaged.

I didn't really make good friends, if and when I made friends at all... up until my mother moved out to the middle of nowhere and asked why I didn't get out more.

My computer was my window to the outside world.

I'm just frustrated b/c what do I do now? The damage has already been done. My anxiety and depression stems from spending a childhood growing up asking "Why am I not normal? Why can't I just buckle down and focus like everybody else?"

Young Me couldn't understand that there was something fundamentally different about my brain... And neither could my mother, judging by the screaming matches we had about my grades.

But I had to do all the heavy lifting regardless.

I'm having a bad day today b/c I came to a realisation that my untreated ADD has robbed me of developing a strong 'talent' or skill...

And I'm angry that my mother KNEW, beyond the shadow of a doubt, about my condition and did NOTHING about it even as my grades suffered and I dropped out of school.

No drugs (that I understand) but no behavioural therapy, no coping mechanisms, no worksheets... I was the one kid she had that 'passed for normal'...

...until I didn't.

@Draekos aw h*ck at work right now. Have to catch your next one on Saturday I guess. :c

How come I've never seen a genderfluid goo character before? Seems like it'd be a no-brainer. :v

I must be moving in the wrong circles or something.

@Draekos oh h*ck that's adorable o///o;

(Also I was thinking that'd be one heckuva blender, but then I remembered industrial pastry mixers exist XP)

Well that's a shame, I know people who liked that show:
