one of the funniest things about being gay is when u accidentally become homonormative in your head and assuming everything is gay like ill be listening to a love song and im like “wait… is she singing about a guy?? why would she wanna do that” bc i forgot about the concept of heterosexuals and that being straight is considered the default by most people lol

To those of you that fear recovery because you’ve become so comfortable with your suffering:

You don’t notice it leave. It goes away slowly and you don’t even notice it’s gone until youre happy and content.

You won’t miss it. It won’t hurt. You won’t be empty. I promise it will be so much better than your head tells you.

I started to play the new Spider-man game on PS4 and it’s quickly becoming a special interest of mine. I was so pleasantly surprised to see an “accessibility” menu in this game. 

A menu that allows you to have bigger subtitles, to put them on a black background so that they’re more readable, to disable QTE if you can’t mash buttons (because if you keep it activated, yeah, you mash buttons pretty hard), a background for the HUD to make it more readable and the possibility to skip puzzles… 

I might forgot some stuff, but the point is that they created this game while keeping in mind that disabled people might play it and might need some features to be turned off or displayed differently. And it’s great.

I turned on the subtitles, put them in a bigger size and on a black background and it does wonders for me. I can read them easily, even when I’m playing, and I don’t have to focus so much on what everyone’s saying. It allows me to fully enjoy the game.

It should be normal, honestly. But when we still have video games with no subtitles at all, I think we still have to compliment video games teams that actually make the effort to be inclusive and to simplify their mechanics for disabled people or people with various difficulties.
