I’m just a weird, furry, pan guy (cis he/him). I also have a big, blue username.
If I was a character in Danganronpa, my talent would be The Ultimate Loser and I’d be the first character killed in the murder game.
I first heard about them because they banned me and I got spammed by their dumbass system with every single community on the instance duplicating the ban via a bot. Never even interacted with them or saw a user or community prior. Seems like it’s just some over-controlling instance operator just keeping everyone they don’t like out of their instance that nobody would have ever known about had they not spammed mass bans.
30-60 minutes isn’t that long to me anymore. I’m usually impatiently waiting months or weeks at a time now. Currently waiting for Shadow of the Erdtree to drop in 8 days. All I can do for these lengths is imagine that WaitMate is real.
My ADHD is the kind where I hyper focus on things I like, and I like video games so the problem isn’t that I don’t finish games; it’s that I finish too many of them too quickly and forget the real world around me in doing so. And also that I then have nothing to do once I’ve finished all my games. :(
Games I don’t finish are games that I also just don’t like; so I never feel bad about it.
I got diagnosed because I started recognizing certain problems I had and how they were negatively impacting my life and wanted to know what was going on.
I did not expect the diagnosis I was given (BPD, ADHD and a referral to see a specialist to test for autism) because I don’t recall ever having any of the issues affecting me I now have when I was a kid. I had no anxiety. I had no problems with selective mutism. Didn’t have a problem staying on task, etc. I did have some issues regulating my emotions but that more indicates I’ve always had BPD than ADHD.
Mine was all about not doing homework but my grades only dropped 1 level because of it and I was an otherwise straight A student (except in math; I got Ds in math). I wasn’t even in school anymore when I was diagnosed on just a routine checkup where I was looking to get a referral for a therapist. Didn’t think it was ADHD because it only became problematic years after high school. And I didn’t even know about Borderline Personality Disorder at all until they said I had that too.
Having bounced around using a lot of different apps while on the same instance that, afaik, hasn’t defedersted from anything: I think it has more to do with how the apps work. I can refresh Jerboa, Raccoon and Connect all at the same time on 3 different devices, sorting the same way and in the same space (all), and get entirely different results from each one or go into the same post and see less comments in one app than I do in another.
The only two sports that were lame for me because of the lack of stimulation were baseball and soccer. I liked basketball and hockey and tennis and racquetball. There were others I would have played had there been programs for, too. Like bowling and billiards (though these are questionable as “sports”).
This is just for playing of course. I can’t stand watching sports, even the ones I like playing. It just makes me antsy and wanna play! I’ve always kinda gravitated towards games, though. Sports are games, and my ADHD brain latches onto the game part and can ignore all the other parts that are boring or don’t interest me.
I can’t be convinced that the main character of Lucky Wander Boy isn’t autistic, considering the obsessions he has and the ritual he performs at one point.
Great, but very weird book about a writer who likes retro video games trying to find an arcade machine of his youth that may even have mystical powers.
Check behind your ears. If not there, check elsewhere.
I like watching speed chess matches just to see them slap the fuck outta those clocks.
