Not sure yet but I think the story goes something like....

....you wake up on a space station from your hibernation pod and discover it abandoned and attacked.

Some time has past since other humans or the attacking aliens where there. You gather your first resources, find armor (tutorial) and prepare to head down to the first alien planet where the station is in orbit to find more clues about to whats happened to the station and your crew.

Just a rough thought for my game intro story 💡

@stux love it. Reminds me of the intro to Project Hail Mary - one of my fav books.

The absolute best way to get out of doing the Sunday Spring Clean is to take your sertraline at the wrong time and become so nauseous you can't move 👍

@robyneatseverything 😬. I always start the day with 100mg sertraline and 75mg lamotrigine. I love the smell of meds in the morning.

Why is it that the people who brag about being "self-made" aren't?

If you turned out successful odds are you had help, a lot of it, and a good amount of luck on top of that. Imagine being so self absorbed that you don't give credit where credit is due.

    Short Stories.

    Love ‘em, hate ‘em, somewhere in the middle?

    Years ago one of my dear friends (who is a huge bookworm) and I were talking. She told me she hated short stories. I can’t remember why or if she even told me a reason. This conversation has stuck with me, because I struggle with them- why? I have no idea. I have tried different tactics to overcome this. I am s l o w l y reading one now, but I don’t gravitate toward it (not the one pictured, but it’s one I really want to read if I can ever get there).

    I’d love to hear your thoughts.

    @Likewise @bookstodon I love a good short story! So much variety and not a huge commitment if it’s rubbish.

    I'm thinking about Willpower today! Humans seem to have decent short term willpower, but not particularly good long term willpower, for things they really want. Willpower doesn't seem to be an infinite resource, and is effected by stress, fatigue, and environment.

    So what are your thoughts on Willpower? Have you given up something long term that you really loved? What is the hardest thing for you to limit in your life? What is the thing you always seem to cave for?

    Just an FYI, this isn't a platform to shame people for bad habits, we all have something we struggle with, we all have different levels of stress, and grew up in different environments. Just for instance, I can smoke a cigar occasionally, enjoy it throughly, but never really crave nicotine, on the other hand, if you were going to tempt me with a loaf of homemade bread, some delicious BBQ, or a well made cocktail, my willpower is much more limited. Human brains and bodies are incredibly complex and no two people are the same.

    Yesterday my brother and I were wandering through a very large antique store, and every minute or two we kept hearing this maybe 10 second bit of music, so we searched around and eventually found a booth with old arcade games. One of the games was one of those types where you can win a gumball, or other small prize, and it was playing the tune over and over. It reminded us of haunted circus music, so we got curious if it was part of a larger piece, and through the magic of the internet we were able to find that it was the intro to the song Playboy by David Lyme. When I got home I found this amazing video full of peak 80's nostalgia and easily one of my favorite synth keyboardist. David Lyme is Spanish and was one of the creators of the Sabadell style, which is an off-shoot of Italo-Disco. I still wonder how the intro of this song somehow became part of music in an arcade game in Missouri, but the damn thing is stuck on my head now.

    I’m trying really hard to objectively gauge Cs pros and cons during this honeymoon stage. I wasn’t sure what I wanted when I met her, although my pattern has pretty much always been to fall madly in love pretty much immediately. So I asked her to be my girlfriend minutes after we slept together on our first date 😅. By that point I couldn’t bear the thought of her sleeping with anyone else, and I’d entirely lost the desire to sleep with anyone else. She clearly wasn’t bargaining for this…

    threeofus,
    @threeofus@mstdn.social avatar

    I think she saw me as a ‘fck you’ to her husband who only a couple of months prior had told her their marriage was over. I think I was the first of many ‘fck you’ fcks that she had planned. But then I told her that this felt like it could be something more than that. And she agreed, saying that she had already sensed that that might be the case. And so here we are, two weeks in, boyfriend and girlfriend, steadily fcking each others’ brains out.

    I told her that I love her. She said ‘I don’t want to be your next mistake’.

    I’m still processing what I went through with Red. I made a move on her within a few days of leaving my wife of 20 years. It was passionate, sudden, obsessive and exhilarating. She was 4000 miles away and we connected through a mental health peer to peer support group that she ran on Twitter. I quickly became involved and began running it with her. This was during lockdown. She was married, living with her husband in a small condo.

    threeofus,
    @threeofus@mstdn.social avatar

    When I first made a move on her she said she was interested. A few sexy DMs were exchanged over the course of a few days before she dropped into the conversation that she was ‘Waiting for her Dom to call her’. Her Dom was allegedly a successful businessman, married with kids, that worked kinky video sessions into his busy work schedule. She’d asked to meet him in person but he refused, never even providing his surname. I wasn’t up for polyamory and so said ‘let’s just be friends’.

    threeofus,
    @threeofus@mstdn.social avatar

    She was a bit pissed but agreed to break up with him to ‘be’ with me, albeit thousands of miles away. And so began hour upon hour of FaceTiming. We talked about EVERYTHING and did everything we possibly could over video. She told me I was the first person she’d ever been able to cum with (on video and later in person). She liked the way I talked to her during sex, telling her how beautiful she was and how much I loved her and needed her in the most carnal sense.

    With the time zone difference I was chatting with her 4am to 7am, at which point she’d go to sleep and I’d go to work. There would be radio silence for the next 8 to 11 hours while she slept. I would spend much of this time in an anxious state, imagining her on secret video calls with her Dom.

    After 8 months, travel restrictions were lifted and despite plans for me to go there first, I still wasn’t allowed into her country, and so with great trepidation she came to me. I went to the airport, and as she came through the arrivals gate, I took a moment to recognise her, having only ever seen her before on a 6 inch screen. My ex wife was morbidly obese and I’d always thought I’d go for a more athletic woman like myself, but here again was a beautiful big woman.

    threeofus,

    We kissed through our facemasks. She shook with excitement as I held her. Her eyes were stunning and I knew I couldn’t resist her. We got to the car and she ripped both of our masks off for a passionate, deep kiss. We drove into the city and had our first date - lunch outside a pretty cafe. The weather was beautiful. Clear blue skies. We walked around a park and she admired all of the wild birds that weren’t native to her country.

    A couple people mistakenly thought I was a bot last week, so here's a reminder that I am indeed human.

    Today is my girlfriend's sister's birthday, who also happens to be the artist for our Otterly Human comics. I am contractually obligated to hold her like this in every picture we take together.

    Me once again holding my girlfriend's sister, this time on a bridge.
    Me, you guessed it, holding my girlfriend's sister.
    One of my favorite comics we've made: 1 Interviewer: Do you promise you will love us unconditionally? 2 Interviewer: And value your employer above your friends and family? 3 Person: Haha no, I just want to make money. 4 Interviewer: Look me in the eyes and tell me you would jump on a live hand grenade to protect this Wendy's.

    aspiedan, to Autism

    @actuallyautistic As Christmas holidays approach, I am worried about several things.

    1. I have a busy and stressful job, but one in which I have a lot of control over things, a lot of routine, and an office I can hide in. I am worried about the drastic change in routine (or loss of it) and loss of control.

    2. I love my wife, and kids to the moon and back, but they are unpredictable, and I end up apologising 24/7, and feeling guilty for being rubbish. Also they feel pressure to be happy knowing we don't get time together, which adds to tension and stress.

    3. My family (parents and extended family) are not close, but my wifes are, and Christmas means gatherings, party games etc. And I feel guilty about avoiding them.

    4. I feel obligued to be a festive jolly person to everyone as I do like Christmas and do not want to appear rude.

    I have never really spoken about this till now, but I find it the hardest part of my year, and it takes so much energy to mask all the time. What I would love would be to hide away from everything, but there is so much expectation etc.

    Sorry for the long rant but thanks for being a safe space to get this out!
