  • Yeah … I’m sorry. It doesn’t get any easier. Over time you get beaten down and don’t have the luxury of putting energy into being angry about it. Like, your rage is on a low simmer on the back burner.

    Men are blissfully unaware of what pain they cause and what privilege they enjoy and anytime you try to bring up women’s issues they scream “not all men”. Because yes it isn’t all men but we’re not talking about those men in the first place.

    Talking about it here is likely to gain negative attention so I understand you’re venting but they’re not going to listen. It’s not impacting anyone. And it’s dangerous because while Lemmy is safer than reddit, you could still piss off the wrong person who might go after you. I’m sorry. There’s very little justice.

    I hear and acknowledge your pain.





  • A gamedev I know who has a currently running online MMO says:

    "Don’t overthink it. When I learned gamedev I learned how to display something on the screen, I learned how to move things on a screen, how to play sound effects and music, and then rolled it all together to make a simple pong game. If you can make that you can scale up from there. Buy an asset pack off of itch.io for whatever genre you want to make. "

    For context this guy made his engine from scratch.


  • Your friend refers to LGBTQIA as referring to “aspects of non-cisgendered life” and it makes me doubt their understanding of the community because there are plenty of cisgendered people within the community…less the obvious exceptions.

    Also autism symptoms can overlap and it would be extremely hard to find a label for your specific combinations of symptoms.

    LGBTQIA+ started as separate communities that came together. ASD is already one community, it didn’t start as disparate communities based on a single set of extremely varied symptoms.

    The closer answer is “Neurodivergent” encompassing ASD, ADHD, and others. ASD is accurate whereas neurodivergent is the umbrella term.
