📚 Into the Wild by: Jon Krakauer
In April 1992, a young man from a well-to-do family hitchhiked to Alaska and walked alone into the wilderness north of Mt. McKinley. His name was Christopher Johnson McCandless. He had given $25,000 in savings to charity, abandoned his car and most of his possessions, bu...

[P] It isn't that autistic people are especially unique, per se, even if it feels like it. It's just that they can take interests and ask questions that a dopamine-lobotomised majoeity has deemed wrong, solely because some overconfident idiot said so. That's what a special interest is—the absence of dopamine poisoning. It's autistic people asking according to moral values instead of encouraged by overconfident morons.

[P] The goal of moat gamws is to maximise suffering and loss. What does that say about the human species? And anyone who tries to ask is shut down—because the majority are poisoned by dopamine into hypersociality and perverted compliance. They might ssk why, but dopamine has removed their curiosity, it's left them lobotomised. Instead, they can only ask "questions" that everyone asks. The acceptable "questions."

[P] And no one wants to talk about it as it makes the douchebags who lead the majority uncomfortable for being called out. So no one's going to dig in to this cruelty fetish. Why are there millions of action adventure games about murder? You could just as easily use healing maddened victims or freeing slaves from mind-control as a theme, bur the goal is to HURT them, the goal is suffering. The goal of most games ia suffering.

[P] I know put up or shut up is a mindset, so... A special interest of mine is violent games. I know some have had a shallow inferest, but no one really wants to dig into it. Qnd my focus is on suffering. For example: Why is there a push to make games as cruel as possible without tripping over empathy, often ueong non-humans to do it? Such as Monster Hunter's limping and crying. It's a really weird depravity, to be frank.

[P] I was also wondering how dopamine poisoning effects the vast majority. I mean, dopamine makes the majority hypersocial. A mind could have unique interests, but a mind poisoned by excesses of dopamine only cares about what overconfident idiots, social "leaders," say is a cool interest for their gender/job/age-bracket. As autism isn't poisoned by dopamine, autists can't GAF about a hiverarchy's hypersocial mores.

Still a little obsessed with old Java applets. I guess it's a #SpecialInterest. :neurodivergent:
Anyway, I finished reverse-engineering the data format for the METAR viewer applet this morning. Then I started thinking about some other applets I'd come across in the past, and I remembered an old LED-style scroller applet.
And I found it!

@SeaFury I certainly do! I write mostly film reviews and occasional lists about cinema ( #SpecialInterest) but I’m debating whether to include any creative writing I do if I manage to stick at it. 😁 https://autisticritic.pika.page/

Well. I did it!
I by no means 100%ed, but I completed Tomb Raider 3.
With that, I have FINALLY fulfilled a goal I've had since childhood - To complete the (first) three Tomb Raider games. (There were only 3 at the time I set that goal)I finally fucking did it!
Holy shit did I ever need that dopamine blast! This high will get me through at least a couple days!
P.S. FUCK GLOWING GREEN WASPS!

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
It is all-essential to the continuance of our healthy national life that we should recognize this community of interest among our people. The welfare of each of us is dependent fundamentally upon the welfare of all of us, and therefore in public life that man is the best representative of each of us who seeks to do good to each by doing good to all; in other words, whose endeavor it is not to represent any special class and promote merely that class’s selfish interests, but to represent all true and honest men of all sections and all classes and to work for their interests by working for our common country.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Speech (1903-09-07), “The Square Deal,” Labor Day, New York State Agricultural Association, New York State Fair, SyracuseMore about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/6…

To which I must #SpecialInterest #AntlerWatch
Yes, antlers are ExoSkeletons! The antlers most folks think of, the hard looking ones without velvet, are bone. When antlers are growing in, they’re a mix of bone, blood vessels, cartilage, tissue, skin/fur etc. In most non-equatorial deer, new antlers are annual.
Horns on the other hand only have a partial bone protrusion from the skull inside. They get their shapes, color, & texture from keratin (think finger-/toe-nails, for any humans on here).

I hadn't seen either my Caribena versicolor or my Psalmopoeus irminia in quite a while. It's really not that uncommon for a #tarantula to keep itself hidden way for what feels like impossibly long stretches of time but it seemed remarkably so this time.
I went to do a wellness check and discovered one VERY annoyed P. irminia and one VERY crunchy C. versicolor. It's a shame because the C. versicolor was always one of our favorites. We picked it up as a tiny little sling 6.5 years ago from the Show Me Reptiles Tarantula Takeover in St. Louis, MO - where I also met #TarantulaKat and #Petko of #theDarkDen.
I can't believe we're down to only 3 #tarantulas from our peak of 17. Tarantulas were an intense #SpecialInterest that lasted years. -

Was up way too late last night playing my new game FlightGear. I'd tried it once before on a previous computer but couldn't get it working, but now it's working fine. It's open source, and just happens to have all my favorite planes:
CF-105 Avro Arrow
Northrop YF-23 Black Widow
Northrop XB-35 Flying Wing
SR-71 Blackbird
A-10 Thunderbolt
X-15And a bunch of others I like too. It's got things like the Wright Flyer and the Space Shuttle! Balloons, zepplins, even fictional craft.
Now if only I had a joystick. 😿

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
For every special interest is entitled to justice, but not one is entitled to a vote in Congress, to a voice on the bench, or to representation in any public office. The Constitution guarantees protections to property, and we must make that promise good. But it does not give the right of suffrage to any corporation.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Speech (1910-08-31), “The New Nationalism,” John Brown Memorial Park dedication, Osawatomie, KansasSourcing, notes: wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/1…
