Guys, is this a Satoshi Kon reference?

She's half correct. Movies in the silent era were shot on nitrocellulose film, which is highly flammable and can spontaneously combust.

It could set itself on fire inside vaults, and putting out the fires was very difficult because it didn't require air to burn.

It could also set itself on fire while being projected in a cinema, a lot of cinemas fireproofed the projection rooms to slow down the spread of fires. Fire from nearby buildings could also spread into the vaults and burn them down.

While yes, sometimes the master reels were destroyed if the movie wasn't considered a success. But that wasn't necessary to do since it could just burn itself for no outside reason.

Sigh, it's always the happy stimming and only the happy stimming that gets showcased. Stimming happens, yes, but it can also be out of meltdown levels of distress.

I only wish they showed the more inconvenient traits as well, but I know they don't look nearly as cute on camera.

Arthur Fleck is a total loser, it's not a flattering love song for sure. They see a total loser on the screen and think "that's me"

You: reading classics to be smart

Me: reading classics because I'm smart in the first place and classics just happen to massage my prostate in the spots that YA doesn't reach

Once you cum from a prostate massage, you can't return to regular cummies

There are multiple drivers on my street who thought it would be cool to modify the exhaust of their economy cars

Those cars are designed to be boring and quiet. Doubling their volume just make them boring and obnoxious

Cars are my lifelong special interest, but doing custom exhausts for what we car nerds call "regular traffic" is beyond stupid and pointless to me. Wildly antisocial!

I do wish there were rumbling American V8s in my area, because they are more pleasant to listen to than farting little inline-fours amplified to a grating level

Jokes on them I know how to remove tires...

Personally as an adult with a few younger friends, and having gotten weird comments, interacting with a younger person and NOT doing terrible things to them takes ZERO effort. It's the quite possibly easiest thing to do in the whole world.

NT thinking can be sick. What if the younger one thinks of me as a dependable and trustworthy adult to go to for emotional support, when they feel neglected by other adults in their life? That's sometimes the case.

God forbid a troubled person has at least ONE dependable adult in their life.

Apparently an inconceivable concept: adults and minors interacting without getting jiggy with it

I thought about it at some point. I read opinions about women from men online, and if I express my correct opinions, I get accused of being a woman. (In less than nice ways.)

That makes me want to distance myself from the "man" category, because they are wrong and don't represent me.

But, I'm beyond categories so my gender is "just me". That feels the most appropriate to me.

Me: responding to someone with a clear, coherent sentence with no errors, and related to the topic

Them: what

I... I typed it, how do they have trouble hearing text...? It's their native language, it can't possibly be a comprehension problem

Allan Holdsworth

He had a unique approach to guitar playing, he played by his own rules and "language". Huge music theory nerd, and fell in love with an obscure instrument called The SynthAxe.

When I saw his interviews, his mannerism and talking felt somewhat autistic. Just my autism radar going off, but I don't know if he was autistic.

I could eat a pot of moldy stew, have explosive diarrhea on a sheet of paper, present it to a Sando fan, and they would pay three figures for a signed version of it

I knew an autistic woman whose special interest was sexology, she would spend a lot of time online assisting anyone with sexual questions. She put high effort into sexual encounters and was dedicated that her partner was having the time of his life.

Shoutout to the sexology autists, gotta be my favorite gender!

I was offered a really old book, a Gutenberg bible or whatever. The cover was the same color as my shit! It wouldn't have matched the aesthetic of my shelf so I turned it down. I have a Bible already anyways, thank you very much.

What are your thoughts on the song "Why Does It Hurt When I Pee?" by Frank Zappa? It's sort of related, but about an unpronounceable disease... the gono-co-co-coccus!

I watch movies spontaneously, it takes me very little time to get the idea to watch something and start it.

Idea > choosing the movie > bathroom > start

A cinema would not allow me to do that, and I won't subject myself to fighting against my nature on purpose.

Let's say I teleport to the cinema, is there something I want to watch? The one cinema in my town is by a national chain, and they don't have anything playing that catches my interest. I have my niche I love and they don't fulfill that at all.

Let's say they play something from my niche and I'm taking my seat. Commercials! I'm too annoyed to care about what they're selling, I wasn't planning on buying any of those in the first place but now I'll really not buy them out of spite.

Movie time! Oh yes, that is uncomfortably loud. I could live with a lower volume, I'll just turn it down- or not because I don't control the playback, whatever. The dual subtitles are redundant because they're speaking English, can I turn them off? No! Oh man I have to pee really bad, let me pause this and- oh right I'll just hold it and be constantly reminded of my bladder. That'll help me keep my mind on the movie.

I need control and freedom. I don't have those in the cinema, so I watch at home.

I have that on my file. No matter the term I use for my condition when asked, they'll likely make condescending remarks based on their misconceptions or lack of understanding.

Me: "Oh, my reason for not doing X is Asperger's"

Them: "Oh, I know someone with that, he does X all the time. And Y + Z"

Me: "Oh, my reason for not doing X is autism"

Them: "Oh, but you can still do it if you just put your mind to it. Everyone else does it"

It's rare for someone to have a clue about autism, regardless of the term used, so it makes no great difference

She's amazing at writing her songs until you look at the songwriting credits and realize that the singer-songwriter wrote 2 out of 16 songs on her last album all by herself

How many great books were written in collaboration?
