As Above, So below is reasonably solid

There’s a bit of a Mary Sue issue but otherwise good.

Overworked janitor who wanted to reduce the number of bathrooms they had to clean

I’ve wondered this as a ciswoman who is hetero and far as I’m aware, neuro typical.

Growing up I had all kinds of identity questions and it’s taken me a long time to both understand who I am and what I want for myself; to make peace with a few things about my personality etc.

I wonder if the struggles of trans/queer/ND people to find their identity delay those additional questions? Or are they layered on top as well?

No real point, just a musing I’ve had. Being a human is hard even when you’re already ticking boxes that society says you should.

Were they doing the work they were meant to do during work hours?

Working remotely shouldn’t be treated as a privilege.

Genuine question, did it really matter whether he was in his normal house or holiday home? Unless it was a timezone issue or something?

Mm dunno if you ever read the qanon casualties posts on Reddit. There’s no discussing or reasoning with the people who have fallen prey to believing this shit. And if often leads to financial ruin. Blocking access to those sites is, for many, like taking the car keys away from an elderly parent who will only hurt themselves and others if you don’t intervene.

When he logs out the NPCs around him only then realise they might be NPCs and start freaking out, hoping that they too can log out. Because if they can’t then they’re not real…

Oh I just get those as part of my sleep paralysis.

Eh for me it’s about 60hrs. They’re minor hallucinations at that point and you’re still lucid enough to understand that they’re not real. But it just further cements that you’re being tortured by your own body. I see things in my peripheral vision, mostly. Things crawling on the floor, liquid running down the walls, faces are distorted until I look at them front on. It’s not a good time.
