Hahahaha yeah why would anyone do that

I can only speak from personal experience. I process the world in much the same way. I find something neat, learn everything I can, then inevitably get bored a few months later. But I recently had the realization that I've been receding into hyper fixations to distract from the very real sources of depression in my life.

I would find myself feeling vaguely sad or unfulfilled and instead of addressing the source, I immediately dive into the minutiae of whatever I'm fixated on at the moment. Thinking to myself "surely I'll feel more fulfilled once I've figured out this software." Or "Won't it feel great when I'm done with this project?!".

But I never do feel fulfilled anymore. The sadness has never gone away. It's always been there, just out of sight. I'm surrounded by a graveyard of distractions.

Well, based on personal experience, I can tell you that some chemical dependency and spiralling mental health won't fix it. So I'm fresh out of ideas.

Oh yeah for sure. Throw some pot and booze in there and you've got a party. I'll never need to address just how bad things have gotten.

ADHD is great if you're depressed and don't know it or don't want to admit it. You can just distract yourself by going from one dopamine fix to the next while the color slowly drains from your world. It also gives you the ability to ignore all the signs since you can hyper focus on literally anything else.

So this is dysphoria? Shit sucks. I guess my egg has been thoroughly cracked.

I've used that script and can confirm it works. I was actually coming into this thread to recommend it. I don't think there is anything nefarious in that script. Or at least I haven't had anything bad happen on the machine I used it on. I suppose someone with more knowledge could look through the script to see if anything looks out of place.

Re-replying to this just to say that the last two weeks of my life have been consumed by Assetto Corsa and all it's amazing mods. The free-roams are great, but the vintage cars and tracks are what have been occupying all my time. Trying to cut a clean and fast lap around Battenbergring in an Alfa 33 has consumed all my free time.

My husband and his family is Sicilian. They embarrass me so much when we go out and eat together. They are so loud hahaha

"Poor impulse control" but like "shit human being" instead.

I like my CZ P10C. In general I think CZ is slept on in the us. It's a great shooting gun, at decent price. I ended up putting different sights (night sights) and a better trigger in it. But that was just personal preference and not a necessity.

Why is every drawing Ben does somehow weirdly horny? Pete has a pretty flat ass so I'm not sure why he drew him with that dump truck. Unless it's a play on his last name or something.

This is so frickin cool.

I don't remember the surgeries but I do remember visiting the hospital in Chicago a few times as a kid. Really cool place, I remember having a lot of fun there, in between getting X-rays.

That's awesome! Super lucky too. Like, what are chances? For me it was pretty standard. My family Dr gave us a referral to them, and they took the case. I don't remember any of the surgeries since they all happened before I was 2.

I've had people tell me that to my face before.

Fun fact: at the risk of doxxing myself, I can walk today because of the free surgeries I got as an infant from the Shriners. I was born with some pretty fucked up legs, and the Shriners did a lot of work to make them mostly right.

Yoooooooooooooo this is awesome!

They deleted the post hahaha

Dirt does look like a really good time. I think I'm going to try to play beam tonight with my friends. We used to hang out and do trail drives/rock crawling. I got a one month subscription to iracing since it was on sale, so maybe I'll give it a try later.

I've never tried a motorcycle racing game. I don't know if I'd like it. I've never really followed MotoGP or anything like that. I did really enjoy the old MX games on ps2. But that was decades ago so I might just be nostalgia blinded.

I banned owls a few days ago when you banned leftism. You haven't unbanned leftism so owls are still banned.

Looks like it's getting absolutely ratioed now. Some great comments in there.

WHO'S KILLING THEM ANTHONY?

TONY, WHO'S KILLING THE JOURNALISTS? WHO'S DOING IT?

HELL YEAH BROTHER

Drawfee on youtube has their drawclass and I think there is one on anatomy.

Edit: they did three different ones. I'll link in a min. I haven't watched these so I don't know how helpful they are. I just like drawfee.

My husband, who is from Buffalo, got me buffalo bills zubaz pants. They are ridiculous and incredible.

These are identical to the ones I use. I don't know if it's the same brand and everything but they are identical. I do the same "wear for a few days and swap to a new one" also.

I've only got a regular gay fursona. I'm not sure what my mega ultra gay fursona would be.

We got our covid and flu shots this weekend. My husband and I are the only people we know who have gotten a booster this year. Shits bleak.

It feels weird to say the VR is my hobby, but I guess that's the most accurate way to describe it. My first headset was a rift s I got second hand back in 2020. I've been a big fan of VR gaming since. Most of the games I was going to recommend have already been listed so I'll just share my favorites.

For shooting and gun type games, H3VR(Hotdogs, Horseshoes, and Hand Granades) is the absolute best. The guns are great, the dev does almost weekly updates, and it's still getting better.

Into The Radius is an awesome horror survival game that's basically Stalker in VR. The atmosphere is perfect, and it's probably one of the most immersive vanilla games you can play. Reloading magazines in the middle of a fight, bullet by bullet, can really ramp up the tension.

Fallout 4 VR and Skyrim VR are both incredible games once you mod them. In vanilla form they honestly suck, but with mods, they become a completely new game.

VRChat is wonderful. It's free. Go to the world LSMedia and watch a movie in 3d. LSMedia is one of the "movie" worlds that has pretty much every movie, TV show, and anime you can think of. 3d movies in VR just work. They work how they were supposed to in theaters. It's kinda mind blowing to be honest. I'd just recommend staying on private worlds unless you like hanging out with strangers. I just play with friends on private.

DCS and VTOLVR are both great flying games. VTOL is meant from the ground up to be in VR, so it's a lot more simple. DCS is a full blown flight sim. VTOL is a lot more casual, DCS is a lot more rewarding. I like both of them for different reasons.

Vermillion is oil painting in VR. Painting in VR is such a natural way to use VR. Vermillion is great if you've ever wanted to try out oil painting but dont want to go buy all the stuff.

There's a mod available that adds full motion controls to elite and it works pretty good.

I mostly fly helos in DCS, but I can confirm that it is awesome. But I'd like to point out that a lot of the more popular modules have full flickable cockpits and full motion controls. The UH-1H, AH 64, and KA-50 all fly great in VR with motion controls, no joystick needed. A bunch of other modules are full motion as well, but the only fixed wings I can confirm fully work are the p51 and f86. I haven't tried any others.

*Edit to say that I highly recommend a rudder pedal though.

I was scrolling down waiting to see the Mars Volta. My all time favorite band. Deloused is still my favorite, mostly because of nostalgia. However, I've really been enjoying their newest self titled album they released last year. The acoustic album they released with it is good too.

Blacklight shine is such a bop. https://youtu.be/-5-OHfJA1O8?si=sXeRUqsXDL18Z0Sz
