stopped by the fuck all store to get absolutely nothing I needed in one inconvenient trip
Saw this tweet had had a vision
our new job launched its mandatory ai transcription program designed to streamline our workflow and not only does it melt down the moment it has to transcribe non-white customers but it keeps hallucinating the existence of a mysterious boy named dorian who shows up in every third call summary
I just knock on the side of my head when I say it
spoke deeply to me.
Just submitted my appeal for PIP (disability payments) to the tribunal service.
This has left me with the desire to claw free from my flesh and emerge as a god-beast that preys on the wicked and corrupt.
the most helpful thing i have ever seen from neurodivergent internet spaces is “THERE ARE OTHER TIMES OF DAY TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH”. this has genuinely saved me from executive dysfunction spirals so many times.
I want to be the first person on the moon to shoot a sniper rifle at earth and hit a wasp nest. my whole life so far is leading up to that moment
reblog to diminish the horrors from the person you reblogged from
sorry. i’m all booked up.
I've been playing Stellaris for 8 years and this is absolutely the wildest fucking galaxy I've ever seen
I'll try to explain this so people who don't know the game will understand it.
my empire, the Fen, spawned in a totally isolated part of the galaxy, sandwiched between, on one side, an ancient empire with technology centuries ahead of mine and no interest in letting me through their borders, and on the other, a "devouring swarm" species that kept trying to eat me. so I basically hunkered down behind a whole bunch of defense platforms and didn't meet anyone else until halfway through the game.
that situation lured me into a false sense of calm.
about an hour into the game, another ancient empire from the other side of the galaxy "awakened", slaughtered the devouring swarm in less than five minutes, and started closing in on my borders right around the time a violent warlord popped into the middle of my territory through a wormhole.
shortly after this I accidentally imploded my home planet into a black hole.
then, because apparently I had accidentally set the "crisis" option to "ALL", the galaxy was attacked by:
ghost invaders from the dimension where telepathy happens
a rogue AI that made half the robots in the galaxy turn evil
a "scourge" from outside the galaxy intent on consuming everything, including my ships
another rogue AI that wants to erase all consciousness from the universe
in response to this I leaned hard on my bioengineering technology and created a sort of space Godzilla the size of a planet. the entire galactic community then decided that makes me the real problem, and every single civilisation declared war on me.
I evolved my space Godzilla until it got big enough to eat planets, at which point a sort of space Cthulhu emerged and started rampaging through the galaxy trying to challenge it for dominance.
so now, I'm just running around eating planet after planet trying to make my space Godzilla strong enough to fight space Cthulhu, basically doing ranked competitive genocide with the other remaining crisis factions. the galactic population has dropped by like 70%. a dozen empires have fallen. my economy is crashing because apparently this situation is bad for trade and general citizen morale. somewhere there's a planet that keeps sending me notifications because the indigenous species is about to achieve FTL travel and I'm just like. oh buddy. pal. you do not want to be out here.
