Hello! Obviously, I don't really post on any forums that much anymore. I occasionally lurk but that's about it. I just had a recent life change happen that explains a lot in my life that I've struggled with and couldn't understand why. To back track, I went on mental health leave from my job in December. I was unraveling fast mentally and couldn't be there anymore. I started doing Instacart full time while I was on leave and that's become my primary source of income now. I formally left my job in February. Anyway, during all that I started seeing a therapist to and get an actual diagnosis outside of I'm just depressed/anxious. After a lot of talking and testing, I've been diagnosed with autism. It's obviously of the high functioning variety, but it greatly impacts my social skills, communication and being self righteous about my ways being right. Who knows, maybe if I had this diagnosis much earlier in life I wouldn't have made as many social mistakes and been such an asshole at times. Sometimes I couldn't even understand why I did the things I did, but turns out I'm literally autistic. ????? It's been fascinating thinking back on my life with this new perspective and trying to figure out what moments my autism actually played a role in. Anyway, don't expect me to be around a lot more suddenly, I just thought I'd share this update as I'm more than positive this newly learned about trait of mine impacted my behavior online in many ways, starting with people here. That doesn't forgive my actions and behaviors, but maybe gives new insight to them instead. Ok that's all!

I would attempt this but I don't want to risk it - chances are any song (as in actual mainstream chart single) I would think of as being from the last 10 years would actually turn out to be from 2005 or something, and I can't handle that right now.

Update: Thanks @Anelle for finally helping this end! Oh also @Garlic Junior do please stick around and help mod. Truth be told I don't think I'm going to quite have the same "cut it off" sensibilities than y'all do so I want to put others in charge of enforcing. That said, yeah, I think it will probably be fine all on its own.

If we're gonna do it you think we can just do a topic or two and just keep it there? I think people would rather it not branch out into every topic.

This is probably my most wanted game right now... feels like the first huge improvement in gameplay and physics interactions in gaming since HL2 probably. Can't wait for June!

Episode 15

The List Not listed: Re-cut hour-long episodes of re: Zero's first season. I never did watch it even though I meant to, so I might jump on these before Season 2 starts in the Spring. Not much that jumps out this season, and not much continuing. OP and Pokemon as always, My Hero Academia continuing, I thought SAO was supposed to continue but it's not listed. Might use this season as a catch-up point for other things that are ongoing (I see Kingdom is getting a third season and I've never watched, I haven't watched Nanatsu no Taisai etc)

We can make 1337 500!
