Autistic kid gets into trouble for repeating lines from Red Dead Redemption
Withywarlock and one other reacted to StaceyPowers for a topic
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/8/7/2044351/-Outrage-As-Cobb-County-Georgia-Grade-Schooler-Charged-With-What-Amounts-To-Felony-Autism Summary: Autistic kid repeats lines from RDR at school, gets charged with felony. Ridiculous. I am autistic, and like that kid, I do echolalia (repeating lines from things as a stim). Not sure if the school is ignorant about echolalia, prejudiced toward autistic persons, or hates video games.2 points -
Does not matter as I do not care what others think about or seek validation/approval from others. Just care about myself and my small inner circle of family and friends.2 points

Favorite EA Game Series Of All Time

Now, now, let's be fair. The microtransactions in FUT always work without fail.1 point -
all of them. I think for me to be comfortable with a controller it should only have 4 or 5 buttons tops. I'd remove the circle and square and only have X and triangle. And only have a single R and L buttons. Nothing else. Then I might not end up mixing them all the time.1 point

What is your IRL alignment?
Family sedan reacted to m76 for a topic
Chaotic good I only respect laws as long as I agree with them morally. And if someone does me wrong, or someone else I feel protective of, then all bets are off.1 point -

It's cool to own them. Just like you have key ring of something, I too had key ring of the helmet of PUBG, which is actually the official logo of the game.1 point

Would you rather be feared by all or loved by all?

Dropping some gems there @DC - most people seem to be far too focused on what others do nowadays instead of paying attention to their own life.1 point -
Are you scared of dying?
DC reacted to killamch89 for a topic
Being that I've been on my deathbed before, it'll definitely let you reflect but I wouldn't worry too much about it. As the old saying goes " We live to die".1 point -
Remothered: Broken Porcelain
Heatman reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
The only date I could find on there was the release date of the game, so I don't know when the sale runs out.1 point -

What is the most obscure and nerdy video game-related item you’ve ever collected?
StaceyPowers reacted to Shole for a topic
I have a figurine of Sylvanas Windrunner from World of Warcarft, and if that's not nerdy, then my faction flags from the same game are.1 point -
Creating Your Own Cloud
killamch89 reacted to skyfire for a topic
Another big issue is that if you use google cloud they if you set them on the timed backups would create multiple copies like git and may end up increasing the storage.1 point -
I wish I could say I was surprised. Anyone a little "different" is a prime target for abuse and general bigotry. I've been through it as well. I'm not autistic, but I have my issues. But charging an 11 year old child with a felony because he was reiterating something he saw in a fucking game is going so far beyond ridiculous that I can't even begin to measure it. But I do agree with the article. Felony depression. Felony OCD. Felony schizophrenia. Felony bi-polar. Felony Tourettes. Felony Down syndrome. Where does it end? For that matter, why the fuck did it even start?1 point

About 9 of these I never had an issue with. The only one that is a real problem is microtransactions that affect in-game progerssion.1 point
