This is helpful to me. It reminds me a of a conversation I've had with with a friend with a similar neuro divergent family member. So thank you for the reminder.

How can we as a family unit enforce those basic chores to be completed? It's been a trigger fest for ten years and has been the number one issue in our home. Chores are never and have never been done without becoming a problem. I've never done the roommate thing so this kind of conflict resolution isn't something I've ever dealt with.

My issues stem from my teens expectations of me. They expect me to wake them up for school or expect me to pick them up from work. It's absurd.

Thanks for the book lead. I'll give it a read immediately.

They haven't seen a therapist in a year and only take their meds when they "remember". College is only a conversation we're having because they want to be a character designer (which is a job that doesn't exist). When we bring up our concerns, we're not being supportive. Like, the conversations are impossible.

I have set the expectation that they will not be permitted to freeload. That what their mother did, and I will never fall victim to that again.

For sure. I loved the new one and I like what they're doing with the story. Feels appropriate.

Two additions from the 3do era, PO'ed and Killing Time.

PO'ed was an fps with over engineered level designs and humanoid butt cheeks with legs and teeth that fired green projectiles. The 3do version had terrible controls and the game came out shortly before the console was abandoned. It was later released to ps1 to no fanfare, but had updated controls.

Killing Time was a cross between Doom and 7th Guest. It has fmv sprites to advance the story and is generally pretty advanced for its time. After Panasonic abandoned the 3do, Killing Time was ported to pc. It's currently on sale at GOG. I might buy it lol

Wonderputt looks like a mobile game.

New funhaus, while different, is just as good as old funhaus. Shame they're moving towards live content.

Giga, but tuck openSUSE closer to the mascot. Use the negative space between the feet and above the open in a clever way.

Hot take from a father, taking care of the family is the hobby. My kid turns 18 next month, I'm exhausted and look forward to the "friend before parent" switch to flip.
