Dentistry
When you go to a dentist, and they massively overcharge you for a basic cleaning, but also tell you that one of your molars is 'cracked' and 'dying, if not dead' you'll probably take it with a grain of salt, especially if you then check with another dentist who says there is only some minor damage from past cavities.
That makes sense, right? Disregarding the suspiciously expensive analysis from the dentist who seems to be trying to get you to pay excessive amounts of money?
I thought it made sense.
Sure, the tooth felt kinda weird, and I'd recently experienced some issues with all my teeth from having a sinus infection bad enough it made my teeth shift from the swelling and shrinking of the flesh in my jaws.
Sure, there was a point where the tooth in question shifted enough that I ended up biting it painfully, only for it to settle down again over the next day or so, and go back to feeling only slightly weird.
But surely I can't have a broken or breaking tooth in my mouth and not notice it! Surely I'd feel if a tooth was dying/dead!
Yeah guess who just swallowed about a third of a molar and needs a near-emergency tooth extraction to pull the remaining tooth out sometime soon?
I'm just glad it apparently is dead, and therefor not causing horrendous pain by being a literal broken tooth in my mouth.

Metroid suit samus
okay I am begging people to understand that it is not "planned obsolescence" or "corporate greed" for manufacturers to stop selling things because genuinely better technologies become available. I just had someone arguing with me that they should be able to buy a new nickel-cadmium battery for their 25-year-old cordless vacuum. NiCd batteries were outlawed a decade ago for very good reasons. if you really want to have the same effect as using one you can just go out and shoot 10 people with Bullets That Give You Cancer and then rip out your own kidney
A re-imagining of Samus Aran, of what if her Chozo and Metroid DNA was more prevalent in effecting her physical appearance.
This was a commissioned piece of art by the wonderful @hoshizoralone!

Every song in the Metroid Prime subseries is like. *auto parts factory soundscape* *geiger counter noise* *haunting MIDI choir sample* *fork scraping against a plate* and you listen to it for 7 hrs without getting bored
“Autism doesn’t cause low empathy! In fact we’re all just hyperempathetic we’re not bad peo-“
SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP.
There’s a few things going on with this statement.
1. Assuming that low empathy makes someone a bad person. It does not. Actions are what matter, not empathy levels.
2. Demonizing autistic people whose low/no empathy they attribute to their autism. Autism fundamentally impacts the way you interact with the world, others, and yourself. That includes empathy.
Anyway I love you people with low/no empathy this is a safe space for you <3
Signed,
A very pissed off autistic person with fluctuating empathy levels
Uhhhhhhhh that seems bad
Randomizers
How to make a beloved game more replayable: Stick it in a blender and try to play whatever comes out.
Still not good enough? Mix in another game or two!
Pokemon randomizers make it harder to metagame your way past stuff, you end up having to actually play, this and other fusion randomizers turn games into much more involved things.
Imagine playing chess to determine which spaces your checkers can move on another board, all to figure out who gets to go next at jenga.
MIX ALL THE THINGS
i would like samus to look a bit monster-y in the metroid suit. fangs to match.
