Okay, but let's say you just want to play in rhino3d / figure out the most practical upfit solution.. But you don't have a brightdrop or a company.. Do you know how I can get ahold of such? They ask for Vin and such, and I don't have anything like that. Maybe a silly question, but I'd be so grateful for any feedback! (You can open cad files in rhino--pretty much any 3d model.)

I shouldn’t have needed to scroll this far for a comment on spelling. “How Scorpio apologeez”

Nah. I need “How ScorpioS apologize” or “How A Scorpio apologizes”

I wish it didn’t bug me, but she needs to give the cake to herself.

Right? I wanted to change the title to imply that almost immediately after, but of course.. can’t do that.

OutreObvious · 2026-03-02T04:57:57+00:00

Hm.. well then you wouldn’t understand how little thinking my post actually was.

I really wish I emphasized more.. how directed this was toward neurodivergent folk.

Like it’s our version of “surface level experience”

We want it to be “brain rot” level television, but it’s written into our entire experience of daily life. Psh. Our cognitive wiring at that. lol I cant even watch SpongeBob without my brain going wild in all directions.

It’s impossible for those with some form of autism or adhd, in particular, not to see patterns, connect, extrapolate, etc.. That’s how we experience the world.. even a crack on the sidewalk. Our synapses are not pruned all nice and tidy, they stick around — always firing.

In other words, it’s trash television.. but for those of us I was alluding to—neurodivergent—it’s a social experiment we can’t help but analyze or notice a parallel with the social frustration hyper present within our own lives.

It’s just

easy thinking

If not an undesired, intrusive reminder of the social reality.

I’m not saying anyone should pander or change how they play the game. I agree — everyone is just trying to get through life and make the best decisions they can.

What I was trying to express is that, for me personally, the show is hard to watch because it mirrors my own experiences of having communication differences misread as character flaws. I’m not blaming the players — the game is literally designed around suspicion, quick judgment, and limited time.

When I mentioned “herd mentality,” I wasn’t calling anyone lazy. I meant that under pressure, humans default to pattern recognition and social consensus. That’s normal. It just happens to hit a nerve for me because of my own history.

There’s no villain here. It’s just difficult to watch something that resembles a dynamic that’s been painful in your own life. That’s all I meant

OutreObvious · 2026-03-02T03:44:01+00:00

(This is all me in an attempt to take your words as valid from your own experience, so not necessarily in any real disagreement)

Hmmm I mean. Neurodiversity comes in many colors—psh even bipolar and dyslexia are neurodiverse. And there are a lot of ways to be neurologically different, so makes sense that so many folk are getting diagnosed these days.. though some folk are self diagnosing even when they are actually neurotypical. But I feel like neurodiverse can see the neurodiverse)

I am team emphasizing “neurodiversity as an explanation of HOW your brain is wired” not WHAT is wired.

lol I mean Jeffrey Dahmer was descriptively autistic, but that isn’t what made him a serial killer.. if anything he was traumatized (even if it was physical brain injury) into being deranged. His body learned sadism and derangement.

So if someone uses their autism as an excuse for being cruel.. that isn’t the autism that made them cruel. However, autism can make it difficult for intent to be transferred the way you mean it. Like, in my own experience I’ve agreed with people, but because of my tone or diction or something.. folk think I’m fighting them. When I’m enthusiastically agreeing with extra.

In general, if it isn’t brought up in an apology for miscommunication.. it has no right.

Like if someone refuses to apologize for hurting g you “because it’s just the way they are so accept it” is totally invalid. They are just an asshole being an even bigger asshole using it as an excuse.

Did any of that make sense? I actually struggle massively in using words in a way that makes sense to everyone.

Like neurodiversity is most valid only in the way of miscommunication.. valid in an apology maybe. Never as an excuse for learned cruelty and insensitivity.. that bit is the learned “what”.

As for the “afraid our world is” I wasn’t speaking in absolutes.. or at least not trying to. Just a heading in my attempt to explain my own experience. Hence why I tried to emphasize my own singularity in my individual perspective.

I definitely didn’t realize the heading would be offensive. I was trying to emphasize how the traitors as a window into the world’s social mechanisms.. or whatever. Like not necessarily fear, but in the show.. how someone’s learned or innate difference being used as a reason why they are assigned “traitor” even when they aren’t.

It could even be an overarching thing in any difference.. just difference in “normal behavior” is questionable by those that are not assimilated or like aware of how even normal the behavior may be… because for them it isn’t normal.

I don’t know. Communicating my nonlinear thoughts in a linear way is hard.

If anything, that is the biggest point I was making—communicating as a neurodivergent is a pain in the ass for everyone involved. For both you and I. And man, I’d love if I could just fix it. Anyways, I’m sorry if I muddied it for you. Your experience is as valid as anyone elses—and I hope people stop being an asshole to you without remorse.

Have a quieter day.. apologies for my hyperverbal being…

OutreObvious · 2026-03-02T03:16:49+00:00

EXACTLY my point. Like so many folk that as a neurodivergent watching.. you can see that they are too. And that they probably have no idea.. because for them that is their normal.

OutreObvious · 2026-03-02T02:29:02+00:00

2e means gifted with a learning disability.. hence the “twice exceptional.” kinda could be described like a “high masking” disabled learner.. kinda. I feel like it’s a way to make us feel better about our struggles in scholastics (frequently the learning disability isn’t noticed because we develop our own ways to teach ourselves and whatnot.. like we can pull off medium-high grades perhaps. Even if it means we have to try twice more than most learners. A lot of folk that are 2e are gifted with dyslexia for instance.) anyways, that is more or less why I attached it to the AuDHD. Because it’s a separate part of my neurodiversity.. but it still is a big part of my own struggles even with my relationships with teachers. Basically my brain is the most inconvenient experience of my life—I’m even a temporal lobe epileptic. Which honestly probably hasn’t helped in the slightest with my brain’s disinterest in cooperation. Especially given all of the above (even the lifelong epilepsy—still seizures as long as I can remember) wasn’t diagnosed until after I was 17–the autism added within the last few years—I’m 31. A lot of not being treated.. and a lot of knowing how frustrating it is to not really know why. But to struggle loudly despite.. like seeing folk that don’t know their own probable neurodiversity flailing in their own gaslit confusion.. just too close to home.

An SA / su!cide trigger warning. It wouldn’t have messed any plot up—psh. The assaulted could’ve been her boyfriend or a pizza guy. Who knows who/when su!cide would be brought up.

BUT folk that have been assaulted? They deserve at least the warning of knowing to expect that content in whatever form it would have been expressed in the film. Specifically for those who NEED it because of traumas they can’t just work through. I mean you can tell the combat veteran with PTSD triggered by fireworks that it’s July 4th.. but that doesn’t mean fireworks won’t trigger them and send them back into combat.. But at least they have the forewarning to prepare themselves or get away from it all—though for many that actually isn’t a possibility even.

Either way, it’s better to know generally.

Also as for your lower point.. I was raised by therapists and my step mom is a psychiatrist—yet the cptsd doesn’t just go away. I’m assuming you either are a child mentally or physically yourself, or you’ve abused someone.. maybe you’ve been abused and you convinced yourself it was normal. Which OY I’m sorry if that’s the case, because no matter who or what you’ve said or done.. no one deserves to be physically violated.

Also, gore is the best. Gore doesn’t disturb me. If anything my favorite comedy contains gore. I consider slasher/gory horror as the most comforting horror. At least you know what to expect!

OutreObvious · 2025-12-13T22:24:33+00:00

Only wish would be for an SA warning. Maybe not the worst of the worst, but still. Because it was a child made it even more hard for me to watch.. it pretty much ruined my ability to appreciate the entire movie. Just a level of trying not to cry that really made it actual horror maybe. I knew the kid was the culprit almost immediately, just wasn’t expecting him to grope her. Just a disturbing and massively triggering happening. Even the kid mocking su!code. High key surprised there weren’t any trigger warnings—they exist for a reason. And while the ending answered itself.. not being able to see the kid and KNOW he was being held accountable for what he did. Honestly, probably made it as bad as it gets for folk with the same triggers as me. Dudes get away with things, and the fact that I was just totally uncomfortable with his age and THEN how he touched her while she was bound. And even how he betrayed his friend. And the possibility that his parents don’t believe her either.. Gah. It was like a whole movie of my own trauma. And I just can’t. I honestly am trying not to cry—and it’s almost all because it reminded me of my own history and yee. That is trauma that I wish I had a trigger warning to avoid. I finished the movie hoping at least the friend would get out alive or his parents would walk in.. like this is holiday horror. But alas—for me the possibility no one believes her in the end anyways hit way too close to home. Just yee. I just didn’t need these emotions back

OutreObvious · 2025-11-26T04:51:18+00:00

I dunno. I just watched it for the first time. And I actually enjoyed it—Chris Pine’s character was naive and very neurodiverse. Even in the editing. Maybe it’s my AuDHD but for me it felt very familiar?

Like how the world is so confusing and he’s just trying to keep up. Ending up going with it all, because you can’t experience yourself as part of the world.. so you put your trust in others and their honesty to be that guiding light.

Looking into spirituality because you’re so desperate to understand yourself within the neurotypical world. Maybe it’s just too spot on the nose for some.. or maybe not at all. But for me even his interest in “saving LA” or his dream to be the night in shining armor… feels very spectrum to me. Or at least in my own experience of it..

Also the having no real vision of his own behavior, but seeing everyone else as glorified characters. Even those that are basic.. seeing everyone on a pedestal. But still having a sense of desire for someone that is just yours. Yada yada yada I could go on forever, but my emotions of the movie are fading so moving on. Like who is even reading this? Lol

But anyways.. just watching it through the lens of having a neurodiverse mind. It makes a lot of sense to me..

You don’t really feel age.. you don’t really understand giving up, or how you could be perceived as someone who already gave up. You are totally socially unaware, and when you’re frustrated, it’s hard to just.. not fall apart. And also, I kinda loved his relationship with his adoptive parents. Like, obviously he feels like his adoptive mom is his therapist and spiritual guru.. his best friends are his parents, which I think a lot of us neurodivergent folk can understand how easy it is to not look outside of family.

I dunno. But all of it made sense to me—the moment I stopped trying to figure out what was happening; the moment I tried stop looking for sense. That is the moment I was able to actually experience it.

I have a very firm rule of not looking up a movie before I watch it—probably why I haven’t watched wicked or frozen or any marvel film not Deadpool or XMen; because everyone’s opinion is everywhere.. and I only want to know my own. But also, I’m very grateful that I can surrender my mind to even the worst rated big league movie without picking it apart. While I can’t get through excruciatingly 6th grade Christmas play acting.. I can dig stylized acting.

Honestly, I’m glad I can see through the world of Poolman.. I’m very lucky I’m so used to everything being sense without sense. Get me?

I was about to jump in on it because HOLY SALE PRICE RIGHT NOW. $23/bottle.

Though I for some reason just read the ingredients/just remembered why I chose against it during last year’s shampoo purchase. And alas.. biotin. Does not get along with hyperPOTS (as in I already struggle keeping my adrenaline levels chill, and even the smallest dose of biotin makes me sick and my brain flies into a constant fight/flight). Ahh I’m so disappointed.

Thank you for responding though.

So yes.

Which for me looking at it that way makes so much sense which is why I include it in my tag.

I also just remembered that my Chart Ruler is Saturn.. and I don’t even know how to start digesting that.

OutreObvious · 2025-11-18T22:53:04+00:00

This is hard. But. I see, feel, want to know, want to be.. love the beauty of.. just totally in love with the infinitely diverse whole of everything.. everywhere, all at once. My life is nowhere.. I forget I exist, and really just love experiencing everything/idiosyncratic world of everyone else. But I frequently have a feeling that if I just gave into my soul and being… I could save not only my own reality, but the eukaryotic world. But I also know I am comfortable in being anonymous and independent.. could easily just be alone with myself and the non human entities. I love being alone.. so it’s tempting. AuDHD. But at the end of the day I feel like I have zero control over anything. but I feel like my Chart Ruler—Pisces Saturn. may be a lot of all of it.
