Wait, there's people who DON'T get fixated on a single topic and make it their entirely personality for a week before moving onto the next topic??

More game devs need to understand the following concepts:

There is a finite amount of memory on any given device.

No matter how good your game is, players will want memory for other things on their devices.

Not everyone has a stable internet connection so making single player games needing an internet connection is not good.

4. The price of memory has more than quadrupled in the past six months

[galileosballs]

5. If you only playtest your games on machines with above-spec amounts of memory, and you don't do it for long enough, you might not notice the slow memory leak that makes your game unplayable for more than half an hour at a time on a normal-spec PC

SERVICE DOG PSA

So today I tripped. Fell flat on my face, it was awful but ultimately harmless. My service dog, however, is trained to go get an adult if I have a seizure, and he assumed this was a seizure (were training him to do more to care for me, but we didn’t learn I had epilepsy until a year after we got him)

I went after him after I had dusten off my jeans and my ego, and I found him trying to get the attention of a very annoyed woman. She was swatting him away and telling him to go away. So I feel like I need to make this heads up

If a service dog without a person approaches you, it means the person is down and in need of help

Don’t get scared, don’t get annoyed, follow the dog! If it had been an emergency situation, I could have vomited and choked, I could have hit my head, I could have had so many things happen to me. We’re going to update his training so if the first person doesn’t cooperate, he moves on, but seriously guys. If what’s-his-face could understand that lassie wanted him to go to the well, you can figure out that a dog in a vest proclaiming it a service dog wants you to follow him

I honestly didn’t know that I was supposed to follow a service dog in a vest if it approached me by itself.

I do now.

So do you.

The world is a slightly better place. Well done us.

Been on hrt for five years. I think it’s working well :)

[spongebob-autisticquestions]

Asking autistics, how are you when it comes to making eye contact?

[spongebob-autisticquestions]

I honestly have a lot to thank Tumblr for. It was you guys who first helped me to afford transitioning with your kind donations back in 2021. That's something that seriously changed my life for the better

So if I didn't say it back then, I'm saying it now. Thank you <3

I feel like we’re not on the same page about wheelchair users, so let’s go over some basic facts:

PT: I feel like we’re not on the same page about wheelchair users, so let’s go over some basic facts: End PT

- some wheelchair users can walk and/or stand, these people are called ambulatory wheelchair users

- some wheelchair users cannot walk or stand, these people are called non ambulatory wheelchair users

- some wheelchair users use their chair full time

- some wheelchair users use their chair part time

- some full time wheelchair users are ambulatory

- not all wheelchair users are paralyzed

- not all paralyzed people are wheelchair users, paralysis is a spectrum

- paralysis isn’t the only reason to be non ambulatory

- not all wheelchair users have problems with their legs

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

"You just want an autism diagnosis for special attention and free stuff"

Since diagnosis, I've been:

Targeted by dangerous people since being overwhelmed in public makes me look vulnerable

Denied accommodations I've really needed

Bullied at work despite making my diagnosis known

Yes, a diagnosis has helped me in many ways too. But to the people who think people fake being autistic for "free stuff" or "an easy life", that's far from the truth

WARNING FOR ANYONE WITH AUDITORY EPILEPSY AS OF 8/23/25 - theres a new ad for i think it was "the conjuring" ? that starts with yellow text that reads "test your hearing, best to wear headphones" -

THE FREQUENCY THAT PLAYS SECONDS IN IS A SEIZURE INDUCING PITCH!

please mute the ad or click skip!! in our ad we couldn't click skip in time because it made us sit through the beginning of the pitch.

PLEASE STAY SAFE and avoid this ad's audio if you're seizures or migraines are triggered by high frequency noises!

[yours-truly-starlight-glimmer]

The Conjuring in question is the new "Last Rites" and I was able to find the ad posted on the Warner Bros. India channel on Youtube. To be more specific, the ad plays three audios and then a jumpscare. The audios are in 12,000 Hz, 15,000 Hz and 16,000, the jumpscare coming right after this one.

Im not too familiar with auditory epilepsy, so hopefully some of the information above helps someone.

[runby2]

thank you!!!

[runby2]

here's what the start of the commercial looks like! so you all know what to look out for!

[poikaboo]

{ID - A black screen with white headphones in the center. Yellow text reads, "Test your hearing in 15 seconds! Use headphones for best experience"

Further text on the screen advertises The Conjuring Last Rites
