It reminds me of the people claiming that Obama was terrible for race relations because there’s more friction now then they think there was before.

You are definitely correct. Thank you for redirecting me. It is very easy to lose sight of the problematic practices that happen when trying to help others. We often push our own view of what is important and not consider what they actually need. This is especially true when we try to help others by “fixing” them.…

My parents were at my workplace for lunch last week. After some of my diverse (with a heavy concentration of Asian-Pacific and South Asian coworkers, many of whom work in programming) coworkers came through, my mother asked me loudly, “How does it feel to be a minority?” OMG.

I’ll always be fond of him because Bright. Bright was the best.

Right. Talking about anyone who isn’t a white, straight, Christian man (with a shout-out to his female counterpart, of course) is being divisive.

Personal opinion, but wrestling games kinda suck and Starcraft 64 wasn’t a good port.

Oh, come one! Even leaving all Rare games aside, there are still other games they can feasibly get:

SO BRAVE

I would buy N64 Classic just for Mario Party and the blisters.

One of the things I learned quickly for CSGO was to simply ask if a gamer is deaf if they are not communicating and then adjust accordingly (use more quick chats - for text appearance, buddy up on their blind spots).

I know it sounds silly, but your mentioning crisp apples and going up stairs on all fours have me REALLY wondering if I’m autistic.

Putting aside the fact that execution is barbaric and wrong, this guy has also maintained his innoncence for 24 years, and asked repeatedly for DNA at the crime scene to be tested, saying it would exonerate him. Apparently they were like, nope (?!!!), and now he’s dead.

God-damn is Sebastian Stan gorgeous. And the king of reaction face.

The death penalty is barbaric and has no place in a modern legal system.

I refer to myself as “a recovering catholic” and man, does that piss people off!

I had noticed the new naming to Autism Acceptance and I think that is a wonderful new vision for it- and I hope one day it becomes more than just words and wishful thinking. As an adult I am shocked how often I meet someone who has an autistic family member and realize that we’re not alone... that there are other…

Thanks for answering and explaining other things, it serves to know this little tidbits, like being hypersensitive, so one doesn’t take things too personally when interacting with someone on the spectrum.

It’s refreshing to hear such a positive story. Thanks for sharing! Optimists are certainly the kind of thoughtful people I love to be around as a minority realist.

This does my heart good! I have Cerebral Palsy and one of my desires is to attempt to play older video games and maybe stream them. My coordination is not the best so i struggle with games like Overwatch and Call of Duty so I generally avoid them and the chats. This gives me a little more courage to try. Thanks for…
