I appreciate the story of these two sentences illustrating growing up without any diagnosis:

"Received 4th grade math homework in 2nd grade because he got furious over how trivial homework was."

...16 years later...

"Patient has with SIGNIFICANT difficulties and enormous effort managed to complete an education." (Emphasis theirs)

Absolutely! The odds are, as they say "astronomical". That goes for all scenarios where a planet sized rock doots our sun in general.

My new political platform will be like Fascism but built on demonizing the dead instead of living minorities. They are easy targets. Buncha freeloaders.

We are going to collide with the Andromeda galaxy maybe 1 billion years before the sun fizzles out. Something there with opposite galactic orbit from us could smack into our sun at over 700 km/s.

Ah, but at what speed?

This is why your colonies left you, England.

One of our local hotels has all the regular signs around the swimming pool: "must shower before enter", "children must be accompanied by adults", "no diving" etc, in multiple languages.

Then there is the extra sign "do not enter the swimming pool naked". They only felt the need to put it up in one language: German.

I remember the fax number for a logistics office in France from a summer job I had in 2002, but not the names of my (rather nice) colleagues.

The "Pediverse" refers to federated websites that cater to M/YAPs (Attracted to Minors), AAMs and their allies.

Pediverse" is a portmanteau of "pedo(phile)" and "fediverse", the former being the chronophilia for attraction to prepubescent youth

I don't understand how that explains it in a "ok it's fine" way?

Thank fuck. Those parts of the game were grating.

Why? This body is a team effort. Cook, coach, PR agent, etc deserves equal exposure.

 
 

Contrary to most other performers, I think Angelina's performance sounds much better in the live perfoemances than the studio version.

 
 
 
 

I read about Shapez going 3D a few years back, and it initially sounded silly and pointless, but tried the new demo, and now I'm very excited for it to release in early access.

Gameplay-wise it's pure distilled optimization puzzles, and the 3D graphics give it an abstract surreal vibe that I find very comforting.

 
 

This reminded me of myself age 8-9 when I would get stressed if I didn't "undo" any rotations of my body, or rounds around a table. Quite to the annoyance of my teachers and parents. Did anyone else have a phase similar to this?

 
 

Originally got the sub 8 hour achievement during a 2-player game in Early Access, back when you had to collect alien orbs to get science. It was before cliffs, and logistics bots were easier to get, so I was curious if it would be much easier or much harder.

And not least I wanted to get the achievement "properly legitimately", i.e. single player release version.

All in all it was easier than I feared! With proper settings I didn't even encounter the biters even though they were present, and the run was doable by just winging it with little pre-planning and no restarts.

Yeah yeah it's a phone photo. I originally took it to brag on snapchat. :)
