HORRIFIC REALIZATION

I just solved why iPad kids exist and why people hate them

ITS FUCKING ABLEISM AGAIN, ITS MOTHER FUCKING ABLEISM!

holy shit how did I not figure this out it should have been OBVIOUS, it’s literally repackaged autism hate.

remember the shit people keep complaining about?

“They don’t understand social cues” “they don’t talk” “they are mute” “they only like skibidi toilet” “their attention span is so short” “they are loud” “they don’t like people” “they yell and scream”

all that shit, and more they keep saying.

oh my actual fucking god, they don’t care about the kids they just hate neurodivergent kids.

listen tho, listen to me.

I’m autistic/adhd, I used to yell and scream and meltdown, I used to be mute, I have a “short attention span” I am all those things. And I used an iPad, but I was all those things prior, I had always been.

There is no such thing as “iPad kid brainrot” ITS MOTHER FUCKING UNDIAGNOSED NEURODIVERGENCE!

IT ALL MAKES FUCKING SENSE THO?!

It all makes SENSE, oh my actual god how the fuck did it take me so long to figure it out.

you may think I;m crazy but think about it for a minute, just please think.

the rise in autism and neurodiversity awareness, the rise of dignosis in women and children, and acceptance.

and also the fact that neurotypical people can pick autistic and neurodivergent people out immediately, and how they are reacting to iPad kids.

like think about it, it makes mother FUCKING SENSE!

why all of a sudden? Why not before? Why is there this burning hatred for these kids?

like it’s because they are the undiagnosed kids, they are the mentally ill kids, they present like this, I should know!

I KNOW LITERALLY LIKE 3 OF THEM! Personally and closely

AND HAVE MET AND DISCUSSED WITH LIKE 200+

you guys it all makes sense!

why it felts so icky to me, the demonization, and generalization.

just it clicks together now.

like holy shit, it makes so much sense.

Hey guy2 we're pro mental health talk here right? I had a curled-up-on-the-floor melt down over the fact that I have two eat and clean every day.

i cant actually do a proper charli xcx ranking rn bc i dont think i can be fair to her first two albums like i just havent given them enough chances. also i havent listened to her mixtapes she released when she was 16 or whatever. and xcx world doesnt count as a project she never actually finished it so we cant judge it with the rest of the real releases. but removing all of these my list would be from low to high:

pop 2 - charli - crash - vroom vroom - n1a - hifn

#i still like pop2.

[okejkomputer]

need to crush up new charli singles and snort them

#controversial #possibly her best singles since pop2

[ryunumber]

hello! i have found a limited ryu number for boss from hamtaro (who was deemed to have no ryu number)! he appears in the game LINE POP2 as a limited collab character. this game has usagi tsukino in it as a collab character too, so from there it is the same as one of her links. though there might be smaller, standard links (hokuto no ken, doraemon, and lupin iii characters also appear for example).

Thank you for the correction!

The Best Games of 2004 | 20 Years Gone

A long time ago, in the late 00s, I REALLY wanted to be a Video Games Journalist. I was writing and podcasting for local tech website Techpedition and we even worked our way to E3 2009. I was able to parley my mask of legitimacy into getting a couple dozen free games from publishers, but was never able to break into the "business".

It's fine, I've still paid super close attention to the industry and have a handful of podcasts that I follow. One thing that I missed out on was creating the end-of-year best-of lists that have become so popular with pundits of video games. Partially because I didn't have a big enough outlet for it to matter, but more so because I didn't have the resources to play all the relevant games within their release years to render a judgment.

I typically get around to playing all the games I'm interested in, but it usually takes me about 2-5 years. It's partially a time thing but mostly a budget thing. So, what this is, is the beginning of my trip through the last 20 years of video games. I'll be creating a top 10 list for the last 15 years and going forward, I'll post a new list every year of the top 10 from 5 years ago. That is assuming I keep up with it, lol.

These will be written as if they were published the year of the list, so there will be no references to future games or better sequels, etc. Let's get started. Travel with me back to the year 2004 which, news flash, is now 20 years ago.

#10 - Metroid: Zero Mission

Not only is Zero Mission a solid remake of the classic original Metroid, but it succeeds at both making it feel modern and ultimately super-playable, which isn't something you can say about the old NES game.

#9 - Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within

Much more agro than its predecessor, The Warrior Within builds on the foundation of the standout Sands of Time and smooths out a lot of the jagged edges, specifically in the combat department. Your mileage will likely be tied to how much you like Godsmack-itude, but POP2 is a great sequel.

#8 - Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Paper Mario was a weird novelty and shadow follow-up to Super Mario RPG, but despite its clear creative direction, it was missing the character needed to fully succeed in the RPG space. The Thousand-Year Door has character in spades, and it will charm your staples off.

#7 - Sly 2: Band of Thieves

Making Sly Cooper into an open-world heist game took what was a decent platformer to the next level. Where the first game was a solid third place behind Ratchet and Clank and Jak and Daxter, Sly 2 makes the argument that it's a top-tier Sony series. Each mission matters and each of its characters is special.

#6 - Pikmin 2

Better than its predecessor in every way, Pikmin 2 shows the first game's primary game loop wasn't a fluke. The addition of Louie, as a second playable character who's played simultaneously with Olimar, adds a heightened level of stress, making each recovery mission a manic exercise in task prioritization.

#5 - Halo 2

Is Halo 2 as impactful as Halo: Combat Evolved? Not really. The story isn't stellar, and the surprise Arbitor missions are little more than a pallet swap, but dropping the proven Halo action onto the Xbox Live service is game and industry-changing. I'm not a multiplayer guy, but I enjoyed the single player and I recognize how important Halo 2's success is to gaming as a whole.

#4 - Mario vs Donkey Kong

Donkey Kong '94, on the Game Boy, is secretly one of the best games of 1994. Mario vs. Donkey is Nintendo fleshing out that idea and making an addictive puzzle platformer. It starts out simple and sweet and ends hard and satisfying. Had this been the direction the Donkey Kong franchise went rather than Rare's DK Country series, SNES games may have had a very different trajectory.

#3 - Spider-Man 2

Licensed games always suck. Movie tie-in games always suck. Spider-Man 2 is an anomaly on top of an anomaly and it's 100% powered by the Swinging mechanic Treyarch built for the web-crawler. It feels SO good to swing around NYC that it's hard to believe Spider-Man as a character wasn't created specifically for video games.

#2 - Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal

R&C3 is undoubtedly a great game, I'd even say damn near perfect, but its placement this high on the list may seem a bit weird. That's where my opinion comes in. I'm a huge 3D platformer fan, it's probably my favorite genre. With that factored in with the depth and polish of this shiny new Ratchet game, #2 on the list doesn't seem so outlandish.

#1 - Half-Life 2

There's always talk of "importance" when it comes to works of art. Abbey Road is important, Michelangelo's David is important, and even A Clockwork Orange is important. Video Games, a medium that's still technically in its infancy, has only a handful of important titles. I'd say Half-Life 2 fits the bill. It's use of physics as a gaming mechanic is as technically impressive as it is clever. It's an FPS but it's not "just an FPS" and the mood and tone established throughout are as compelling as that of Blade Runner. Half-Life 2 is a stunner that will be studied for years.

Notable Omissions:

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - I've never liked GTA games. I respect their scope and ambition, but when it comes to playing them as games, GTA titles just stink.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - I've never gotten into the Metal Gear games and the more people yell at me to play them, the less I want to.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap - This one technically came out in North America in 2005. So, with me being from the US, It will hit next year's list.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords - I might end up playing this one eventually, but as of 2024 I have not.

What are your favorite video games from 2004?

See you next time. Cheers!

Wait... I just saw your "Ragazzo Gatto" (which means catboy in Italian) blinkie, and i have to ask... Are you Italian? /gq

If so, welcome to the team :D

yes we are!

we are Sicilian/southern Italian!

(and other bits, half of which confuse the absolute hell out of us.)

we don't know the language very well, but we are getting there slowly to learning it.

(yippie! our plans are to just try and learn Sicilian at some point, we are getting there.)

we know some bits and bob's about our culture, but mostly I had to learn it ourselves through other means, we're a 2nd gen immigrant and that's about all I have.

I'm very proud to be Italian and I'm happy to be apart of the club!
