“Diagnosing” yourself is a step along the way to finding behavioural applications that help you. I would never have even begun to start pursuing half the things that have helped me if I didn’t see a bunch of people sharing their experience as autistic and go “oh shit, might I be autistic?”.

What you are referring to as “telling people to diagnose themselves” is actually just encouraging people to look inward and outward, find common themes between themselves and others, and use those findings to inform what they can do to help themselves and those around them.

If, in fact, you don’t take any issue with that and its instead just the word “diagnosis” that you take issue with, then I have no right to stop you from being that pedantic but there are better hills to die on.

Neat

Thats hilarious, she’s a national treasure

I love to see anything pushing toward destroying this stigma. Sex is natural and wonderful, and sex workers are workers providing a valuable service.

What clip?

Correct!

These are optimal packings of n circles in a square container of the smallest size that will contain them

Starmer is a Tory in disguise, remember that

Sounds like the kind of idiocy a politician would suggest for sure. I fucking hate it on this terf island.

I can imagine the keyboard controls sucking.

And yeah, those messages are exactly the thing that makes the vibe so cozy. You’re failing again and again and the game keeps encouraging you, believing in you.

Oh hell yes. The game pushes you to heights you never thought you’d achieve. And its there to catch you every time you fall.

Grail just linked the medium post which I already read, unfortunately. But, scrolling to the comments, I see that Grail has mentioned that Grail identifies as a divine being, a goddess. I don’t think its possible for me to, at this point, understand Grail’s gender identity. Out of respect for Grail I will just forego pronoun use entirely when interacting with Grail.

People absolutely should be mentioning in their reviews of a product that it has bad netcode, or any other positives or negatives they think are worth mentioning. People use reviews to inform their purchases of products. Victim blaming people for certain developers’ inability to produce robust netcode is wild.

Can Grail elaborate on why Grail uses capitalised personal pronouns? On one hand, I want to respect Grail’s pronouns and am open to the fact that maybe I am simply uninformed on the topic or something to that effect. On the other hand, I am hesitant to refer to someone with capitalised personal pronouns since that has historically only been used for deities and royalty and comes with a hefty, hefty subtext of power. Can Grail elaborate?

It was a pipedream, but I thought for a moment this was about the royal family.

I think that farewell and the c-sides are some of the most enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding gaming experiences I’ve ever had. Keep it up!

Celeste! One of the best games ever made, with a flawless Linux native version

I don’t feel like its too closed off, no, I appreciate how closed off it is!

A reminder that Microsoft coined the term “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” and they are going to continue doing this on purpose

Transfemme lesbian maybe?
