ND Nonsense

Hey there!  This is just a place for me and my autistic brain to share and appreciate stuff about my biggest interests and hyperfixations; these will usually be FNAF and Rise of the TMNT, but others will occasionally show up if I remember to or feel like posting.  I'm new to this whole actually having a social media account thing, but maybe it won't be so bad.  Age: None of your business; Gender: Nonbinary/genderfaer/jellogender; Orientation: Aromantic/demi-fictoromantic, asexual/demi-fictosexual.  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.  :)

Man, The Story Of Chris-Chan Is Something Else. It Doesn't Sound Real At All, Yet It Is. I Don't Know

Man, the story of Chris-Chan is something else. It doesn't sound real at all, yet it is. I don't know how to feel about it.

On one hand, Christine has done some truly heinous things and is definitely past the point of no return. No amount of autism can excuse her poor treatment of others. On the other, most of the people in her life were also pretty rotten and exacerbated her issues. You don't just repeatedly catfish or stalk someone "for the lulz."

And as an autistic person, I look at her younger self and think, "That could have been me." I was the awkward, awareness-lacking nerd who would insert my interests into everything I could. I was awful at making real friends. I was prone to freaking out when things didn't go my way.

But I was fortunate enough to have grown up in the 2000s and 2010s instead of the 1980s and 1990s. Autism acceptance wasn't perfect during my childhood (and people like Andrew Wakefield certainly didn't help), but it sure as heck was in a better place than it was before the turn of the millennium.

And I was (and am) lucky enough to have parents who worked to accommodate and support me properly. Christine didn't have that. I don't know for sure how she would have turned out with different parenting, but Bob and Barb evidently stunted her chances of becoming well-adjusted.

It really is a train wreck of a situation where the abused became an abuser.

I Saw One Of These Stories On The Sailor Moon Subreddit Yesterday And Thought It Was Just A Chibi Moon

I saw one of these stories on the Sailor Moon subreddit yesterday and thought it was just a Chibi Moon joke, but I guess it's real.

Cool. :)

I got my first Classic Mode 9.9 last night!

I Got My First Classic Mode 9.9 Last Night!

This was Peach's route. I had to use a ticket to continue with Master Hand and Crazy Hand, but thankfully, Bowser got me to 9.9 beforehand. King K. Rool was also generous enough to die to a lucky down-B Bob-Omb.

I'm still struggling with Daisy's route; I've only made it to 9.8. Zelda and Lucina are generally fine, but it's a rollercoaster after that. Rosalina is either super annoying, juggling me like there's no tomorrow, or I'm able to KO her in 30 seconds using the walk-off. I don't know how to manage Corrin's range yet, so she still scares me, but I can gimmick her with Toad and items. The Miis are a 50/50, either dying in rapid succession or ganging up on me with hive mind levels of coordination. And if I make it past the Miis with an intensity of 9.0 or higher, Peach goes sicko mode and does crazy combos that I don't even know how to do yet.

I'll get there. Eventually. I hope.

I'll probably take a break and go for the Palutena and Snake achievements in the meantime. They have lax difficulty requirements, so they shouldn't be too bad (even though I've never played as them).

About to read the first Monster High YA novel by Lisi Harrison. I had #2-4 when I was younger, and frankly, I don't remember much. Wish me luck.

Hey, I have a quick, unimportant question for all of you.

Examples of lines released during each year:

2010: Core, Gloom Beach, Dawn of the Dance

2011: School's Out, Sweet 1600, Dead Tired

2012: Dot Dead Gorgeous, Ghouls Rule, Scaris

2013: 13 Wishes, New Scaremester, Sweet Screams

2014: Freaky Fusion, Gloom and Bloom, Coffin Bean

2015: Great Scarrier Reef, Monster Exchange, Freak du Chic

I chose not to include 2016 because, while there was technically a new G1 release, the year was focused more on the rollout of G2.
