  • Yeah I had to realize that as well at some point.

    Used to play games and I was so focused on gameplay, I always thought “why even have a lot of art in there”. But then you realize if the art sucks, you wouldn’t even be giving it a chance.

    And this extends to skins and stuff. If it’s “just cosmetics”, that still means there is some art that is now hidden unless you throw money at your screen. And depending on how much it is, the game might be way too boring without it. So you’re still buying bits of a game after the fact. And voila, we’re back to the reasons why DLCs suck.


















  • One of the bigger cities in Germany.

    We have a mayor for our district, who is basically a blank slate to 95% of people. It doesn’t help that he lives together with his family in a different district. He is a member of one of our political parties and specifically one I don’t particularly like.

    For some reason I was in the same school class with his son, who was pretty chill, but got very annoying when it came to politics (of course).

    So basically the mayor does a lot of city management stuff but the average person has no clue who he is or what exactly he does.

    I would imagine that’s very unique compared to most other countries but I’m not sure.


  • I got a very light tendency to sensory overload but to me it’s not a pain, I respond to annoying sounds, and I am a little bit more sensitive and have a little bit stronger reactions to it. And when I get overloaded, my brain kinda shuts off, I can’t reason, I get very angry and I can’t properly communicate anymore.

    Imagine someone is punching you randomly every minute but you can’t do anything about it. You start getting irrational. That’s the exact feeling.

    What I’m saying is, what OP’s describing is very different and they should definitely see a doctor about it, because even for a sensory condition it doesn’t sound normal.
