Decided to make a more thorough post of how my autism and other co-occurring conditions affect me. Took a bit so I hope you like it.

I’m very confused. Is the answer that it’s all a bunch of mumbo jumbo?

I’m so hungry. Why am I so hungry? I tried looking it up, but I don’t have anything pointing towards diabetes or thyroid issues, I know I’m not pregnant, and I doubt I have hypoglycaemia either. I genuinely don’t know what’s happening to me. I’m just so hungry.

I’m so hungry.

Your point is null and void. I have been traumatised for life. No amount of therapy will ever help me recover.

I would love love love to see the Traffic Life Trivia as Um Actually questions. I know it wouldn’t have worked given the nature of Um Actually, but I can imagine a bonus episode where they just answer Triaffic Life trivia questions in the Um Actually format, where three players are called to compete against each other to answer questions in rounds and the winners then compete against each other in a tournament style. Cherrifire hosts it. Martyn yells “GET IN THE COMMENTS” every time he isn’t given points for his answers. The players who are not actively answering questions are behind the camera reacting to answers. Every time the answer to a really hard question is revealed, you can hear everyone else in the background going “OH COME ON” “HOW WOULD WE HAVE KNOWN THAT”. Sometimes the players behind the camera try to pantomime the answers. Without remorse, Cleo, who watches Dropout, keeps stealing answers from players who keep forgetting to say “Um Actually”.

is this anything

I think most of the life series fandom know about the Crow Curse (Lizzie saving Jimmy from the Canary Curse in secret life), but I don't think it really counts as a curse seeing as it only happened once. what I propose is the Shadow Curse, which is where Lizzie's deaths are always overshadowed or otherwise "not about her".

Starting in Last Life, her first death was escaping Joel as the Boogeyman, about breaking his curse rather than it being her fault. Her second life goes a similar way, to Joel by the Boogey curse. Her next life goes in a trap that could have killed anyone, it didn't matter. All that mattered was that the Boogey was cured. Then we have her final death in Last Life by Bdubs, and it wasn't about her. It was about clearing his name and proving something to Etho. She was just a convenient life.

Her next series was Secret Life, where she is most known for breaking the Canary Curse. Not something she built, not a relationship to another player, but her sacrifice to the Watchers and freeing Jimmy. Her first death was barely noticed, not even due to a player but a skeleton. Her second was by Jimmy, who didn't even know who she was or why she was there. Then her last life was a failed red kill, she tried to kill Scott but failed. She took too long, and looked an enderman in the eye. What killed her wasn't Scott's revenge, or an avenging ally of his, it was just a silly mistake.

Then in Wild Life we see this pattern of deaths being insignificant or inpersonal continue. She was killed twice by Skizz to get back to being a Yellow name, and once again we see that she was just a source of lives for the other players. Killed by Jimmy to get back to yellow again, this time it was consensual but still about someone else. Killed by a vex next, but it was lost in all the chaos of that session, then killed on a trap that again, could have killed anyone. Then finally, her last life, finally done on purpose by another player-- but it still isn't about her. It's about the rivalry between Jimmy and Grian. She was just caught in the crossfire. We don't even know her last words. And why should we want to know? She wasn't the important one in that scene, she was just an extra. The bait to Grian's trap. She never served any other purpose.

All of these details make her forgotten. All of them point to another player, if there was a player to begin with. She was just stuck in the crossfire, always overshadowed by someone else. And that's her curse. She will never be in the limelight. She will never be at the center of a conflict. She will always be in the Shadows.

Just like her name. Just like her nature.

Wrong account.

Again.

Itchy veins.

martyn inthelittlewood they could never make me hate you

so, between the jimmy board game streams and this tommy video, i have discovered that i like grian’s bit of “i am long-suffering and do not want to be here“. because it’s just. a very funny bit. it also clearly only comes out when grian is surrounded by other people who are naturally more chaotic than him. he just transforms from the hermitcraft “teehee i am a knife roomba” to “i am the responsible adult in this room and i am not happy about it”.
