@mcalel Does that thing purr as well?

I think I actually gamed too much today, which is _pretty damn nice_ for a change. Even if I have a bit of a headache now. ;)

And with gaming I do mean actual gaming, not my bazillionth round in Star Realms that I play a bit every day anyway.

Now playing Gamedec (currently in Fanatical's Ripper bundle). So far I like it. Detective game in a Cyberpunk setting with nice graphics a la Shadowrun.
Was in the mood since I recently finished Detective Di which I also enjoyed although that one has pixel graphics, quite a contrast. ;)

@favus Mm yeah, pets aren't free in maintenance. But the reality? Oh I'd love it. :D

@favus Why?

@dinosauce Yeah, I knew about that one before, adding a webpanel. Just wondered if this specific one from Vivaldi itself would be able to be adjusted to another site. Doesn't seem to be.

@peterdrake
Regarding point 5, I actually had tested that before.

Mastodon.art blocks qoto.org.
Todon.nl is neutral with both.

I post something. Todon boosts it. Mastodon.art didn't see it.

@peterdrake Hu, why is fast food two blocks from your house a good thing?

@rdaily Are we allowed to mix up movies/series?

HODOR

@Floyd Honestly, they should've folded that piece of cloth inside out. Standard practice when washing printed stuff.

Just sent off a mail to Nacon to ask for clarification which is which with those GC-100 controllers. There seem to be 2 models associated with the GC-100(FX) and I can't tell them apart in those online stores.

Neither can those stores as they often display BOTH models in their product images. 👀

Upon hearing from a buddy that there were at least 2 fights and 17 yellow cards, I wonder if I missed out on a spectacle. But hey, I gamed during this time, so all is right. ;)

17 yellow cards, apparently a record at a world cup. I guess we were good at _something_!

@slider7420
Well, on the upside it means that the football craze here is over. That's worth something too! 😋

Not that I had noticed it that much anyway, december isn't really a great time for people to go outside and watch football at a BBQ. 😂

@slider7420 I think you can go eat now... ;)

@torq Mm yeah, I can see why he can go fuck himself. Thanks for answering.

@torq What'd he do?

@favus Have fun fun!

@rdaily Thaaaaaanks! I'm getting hungry now!

@josemanuel

Reading, watching movies, listening to music, playing videogames. You enjoy them but don't see them as a form of escapism? Most entertainment is a form of escapism, even the ones you listed.

And you seem to exaggerate a lot:
> 'There's something sadistic in someone thinking that a bunch of kids permanently living in their own brains is a good thing.'

What makes you even say that? One classroom activity, and you think they're "permanently living in their own brains"? It looks like a very intellectually stimulating activity to me.

As to _why do they like it_, it is a way for them to try to create order in chaos. It is a coping mechanism. Autistic people will always have trouble trying to figure out non-verbal cues in any given social interaction. It will never get easier. This helps them.

I don't think you quite understand the _scale_ of exhaustion here after social contact. You, _like everybody else_, find social contact exhausting after a while. Yes, of course, that's normal.

But _when_ would you find it exhausting? That is where it differs. Let's talk scale: It might take 10 hours before you need a day of rest. It might take me 1 hour before I need 10 days of rest.

You're still _underestimating hugely_.
