*gesticulating wildly* so what you do, what you do, is you strip it down, you go down to the bare minimum of features that make you go "yup that's a(n) [X]," and then you list--stop looking over there look at me-- you make a list of the wildest furthest directions those features can vary, and how they present, and what features CAN be present but don't have to be and, like, and what forms THEY take, see
And that--that's how you make a fantasy creature that can have a wide variety of character designs while still feeling like a consistent group of the same species this is genuinely EASY you can make a fucking dollmaker
The AAA game devs I've locked in my basement: but what if people get confused, we should just make the entire group of npcs look identical that way you'll know they're all the same alien

I have mastered the Clara Oswald “does not give a damn for your bs” attitude while teaching lazy students
*head down, focused on marking, making quips right back at students protesting they “don’t understand”*

I wish people appreciated that het ships can also about delving into a female character's inner world and complicated relationships with others and shipping the guy with a man he barely knows and interacts with is not necessarily more interesting or subversive just bc it's gay

Hey, to any folks who understand ADHD or have studied it in any capacity…is it even possible for someone with unmedicated ADHD to “gain spacial awareness”? Like - be passively aware of more than what’s just in front of my face, things I normally just walk past and don’t notice? Or is that one of those things I’m going to be struggling with for my whole life?

FINALLY starting the new story update and. Well first of all can I just say I really don't like having to do events to progress the story?? I don't take taking part in a map meta until I understand the story of the map, but the story will go "oh do map events". I'm sorry I don't want to!!! I don't even know who the boss of this map is yet!!!!!!

hm. in a way i know i am lucky slash privileged that my (probable) autism is mild/light/high-functioning/whatever the appropriate term is enough that it took me years to realize its autism, and that often the reaction to telling someone that i think i might be autistic is "what? but youre so normal! you were a normal child!". cuz like. some people have it way worse etc i can probably survive without help. but also i often wish that it wasnt and that it was severe enough that i got diagnosed early on (or at all). bc that would mean that at least ppl like, know why im Like this. that id know why im like this. that id get help. etc. ik this is like not actually what would have happened and that ppl who are "more autistic" get treated horribly but ig its kinda like that thing where ppl who werent traumatized in their childhood but are still fucked up wish they were actually traumatized so theyd have a justification for being like this (something i also feel). chipped cup wishing it was a broken cup. yk
