And if it should come around again, it's stale, outdated, or from a new angle and nothing I did before applies. Right back to start, more lost time, wheeeeeeeee.

Though I suppose these periods (like right now) where I have NO focuses are worse...

The Foxish @thefoxish.bsky.social · 15h

One of the best things about cycling hyperfocus is getting SO DEEPLY into something that I'm most of the way to accomplishing something with it, perhaps even being GOOD at it...then the interest fades one morning and likely never comes back, leaving days or weeks or even months completely wasted.

So there's a line of keto bars I get now and again called Built Puffs, but I can't stop reading them as "Buff Puffs", which makes me ask why doesn't @buffpup.bsky.social have a protein bar (hurr hurr)?

And if not Barney Miller, then Bob Newhart, Taxi, or Chico & The Man. The 70s were phenomenal for theme songs, man.

Now I'm thinking it's an accident. "Shit, Barry, what did you do?!" "I dunno, Carl! Some of 'em are pink, some of 'em are green, what am I gonna do when Bob CEO finds out?!" "Make me lots of money, Bartholomew. So much money."

As well as one of if not the two-player sports game (Computer Quarterback) and the first four-player simultaneous game ever, M.U.L.E, which in and of itself is still a solid title 40 years on.

The Foxish @thefoxish.bsky.social · 1d

They've also got Wicked "colour reveal!" cupcake mix out--you don't know whether they'll be pink or green until you make them!

Yeah I'll throw a big fuckin' party for that one, tell you wut.

...in need of a role model, the majority of characters are comic book templates, and half the game is writing parking tickets and saving cats. Illusion of choice runs rampant. I think the script writer changed at the midpoint, where it suddenly gets VERY vulgar.

And yet, I didn't hate it.

The Foxish @thefoxish.bsky.social · 1d

...the FEEL is wacky, part SatAM cartoon and part mockbuster, never quite congealing into something distinctly Robocop. The satire veers into absurdity, the dialogue is stilted cheese, there's a 'morality' system that never really matters, Lewis is fridged early for a Spritely Young Man...

I do not wholly know what to make of this. I kinda enjoyed it--certainly didn't hate it--but whoooo boy it's not a well-made game. Even past technical issues like low-quality environments, clunky gunplay, badly animated models, poorly explained mechanics...

So my mother got slapped with $500 in car repairs out of nowhere when her Jeep gave out, and then came home to a phone call from the vet that her last cat would need to be put to sleep.

I'm trying to get up some money together to help her cover the loss ($0 to me).

They (usually) do run locally as well. Steam allows games to do *both*, so you can pull down your saves on another system or if you reinstall a game at a later date.

The Foxish @thefoxish.bsky.social · 1d

Yep! Dani Bunten helped develop Modem Wars waaaay back on the C64.

You also have Rebecca Heineman, who's done just about everything in her 40ish years in the biz (and is still working today, tho she just announced a cancer diagnosis).

I didn't know about this Signal For Help hand gesture until today. I'm quite sure that a lot of other people don't know it either (as demonstrated in this video). If you just learned it now too then it was worth posting.

Trans woman, mea culpa, I still make that mistake too often.

The Foxish @thefoxish.bsky.social · 1d

The idea of an 'online multiplayer' game was pioneered and refined by a transwoman.

Jo 🏳️‍⚧️🏴🦕 @youjogirl.bsky.social · 2d

Every smartphone in the world contains a CPU descended from one designed by a trans woman in the 1980s. The Matrix is one of the most influential movie franchises of all time. Electronic music was pioneered and popularized by a trans woman. I could go on

i think my favourite part about being a trans woman is how much of an impact we have on culture. a friend reminded me today about a popular meme format she created. another friend today casually told me about how she was the most notorious roblox hacker when she was a child.

just a day in the life!
