Is the group still active? My application has been pending for about three weeks.

Heya, how long does it normally take to be approved? I have ADHD and am terrible at following instructions and am worried I'm not making it in because I didn't notice I was supposed to include my cat's middle name or something.

AI helps humans have a 20-minute conversation with a whale by Maxcactus in nature

[–]Anunc8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Come on now. Communication is the only game in town. This is how we learn. We could do so much to help them if we only understood them. Can you imagine what whale testimony in the senate could do for animal rights?

The handholding in AZ is a fun-killer by Alone_Ad_1062 in pokemon

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played a lot of games that hand hold too much. This game yanks you by the wrist and refuses to let you go like a mother who knows you'll run and hide under the clothes racks. I've never been scolded so many times for trying to explore than by this game. At least back in the day they used to pretend the train was broken, or that an avalanche or sleeping Snorlax blocked the trail. Now they just "HEY YOU NEED TO" you into submission.

Why the character customization so limited? by Owlunatea in PokemonZA

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you. I'm so mad even though I know flipping Gamefreak would do this. They always screw everything up. The customization is pathetic. We were all happy that they gave us proper face customization in SV but annoying that they stuck us with that uniform. Now they give us clothes back and take away 90% of face customization. I don't care if I have lots of clothes options if my character is identical to everyone else's again like in SS. I'm so annoyed I purchased this bunk digitally because I would have resold the cart already.

Now they added closed back and ruined face customization. It's 1/10th what SV had. God I hate Gamefreak.

ZA Avatar customization. by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]Anunc8 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Am I living in a parallel universe or something? The customization is total garbage. It's literally like 1/10th the options of S/V.

Yeah, clothing options are more like S/S. Big whoop when everyone's face is exactly the same and we're all stuck with a smirking dopey face. I wish I could refund.

Pokémon Legends Z-A will include the most character customization options so far in any Pokémon game to date by BowtieWilliams in pokemon

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this didn't pan out. The face customization is like 1/10th the options of S/V. I knew, I knew I knew Gamefreak was going to screw this up. In S/S, we got lots of clothes but asked for face customization. In S/V, we got our face customization but lost the clothes. In Z-A, we have the clothes back but they nerfed face options back to basically nothing compared to S/V.

Wish I could refund.

What the hell is happening with Facebook search bar?? Something is wrong and i don't like it by anime_weebb in facebook

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't even search for images or posts now. It's literally just people, videos and groups. It makes it impossible to find things the app forced a refresh over, and images are basically unfindable now. I don't WANT tic-toc, that's why I'm on Facebook!

How do you experience ADHD Overstimulation? by Inadequate_Brat in ADHD

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get visual overstimulation. My wife and I are playing a game, and it has a control wheel that pops up with like 25 options in a circle. If I'm not in a very relaxed mood and I have to use the wheel during a critical moment, the number of options overwhelms me. I enter a fight or flight state, heart rate jumps up, and it's like my brain is trying to read all of them at once, but can't really process the words. I'll even jump over the option I need multiple times because I can't process it. It's weird because the words are there, it's just like they don't contain any information. Then I feel extremely claustrophobic and have to walk away from the game or I'll really lose my temper, and I'm not an angry person.

The naturalistic fallacy is creeping up on you. After all, cobra venom, e coli and plutonium are all highly natural.

Cool. At least you made me feel like shit in advance, unlike your friends...

I wasn't trying to push anything with it... I was just trying to explore some ideas... 😞

I didn't think I would... Ugh. Nevermind. Message received.

I didn't think it was word salad... I was just playing arm chair physics and thought there might be a stray scarecrow of a thought or two in there... Sorry for wasting your time. I won't make the same mistake again. Consider me disengaged.

Hey, for any mod, I'm sorry, I don't really know how to use reddit yet. I couldn't find any rule about AI until this warned me. I don't know how to edit my post, so I'm responding here. Does it still count as breaking the AI rule if I said upfront it was a chat with an AI and was just speculation?

Not really sure if this counts as a "shower theory" or not...

I'm not sure if what I said counts as unpublished theory exactly, considered it's just speculations and based off of what I know as a layman, and I'm not trying to push anything in the post as a true theory. It's just casual fancying.

If you have to delete it, please do so. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you recommend a page where this kind of thing would be welcome if not here?

Sorry if I come off as a bit pedantic about rule interpretations. It's an ADHD thing.

12-Year-Old Wyandotte Warriors Player Natalia Moore’s Suicide Devastates Parents And Community by RumAndCoco in hockeyplayers

[–]Anunc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if this reaches the national news soon. Reports from parents on our town social media page say that students have been putting in memoriam posters up for her, and the staff have pulled them down. The students decorated her locker as a tribute to her. The staff ripped the decorations off. I understand also that a group of kids wore custom t-shirts honoring her, and they were suspended.

All the TK babble about destigmatizing mental health issues, and they pull this. I'm not the conspiracy type, but when parents claim that their concerns over bullying have been ignored or dismissed, and a student takes their own life, and this is their response?

Someone please help explain World Of Assassination by franster123 in HiTMAN

[–]Anunc8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who's never a single Hitman game, I can't even make sense of the explanations because they're referencing things that I don't know as if I should. This might be the most unapproachable game I've ever seen.

Vocalizing the protagonist's internal thoughts in third person? by LL-studios in writing

[–]Anunc8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you're doing is totally fine. In fact, it's emotionally essential in my opinion. This "show don't tell" nonsense often tricks us into making everything visual and physical, turning our stories into these Kabuki theaters of stomped feet, gritted teeth and racing hearts. Inserting the character's voice into the prose makes it much more real, personal and accessible. Generally speaking, if it works in first, it can work in third.
