I can’t believe I forgot about that gay goth masterpiece. They’ll love Interview With The Vampire.

Wednesday might be a good show to watch with them, if they haven’t already seen it.

Spaceballs, The Matrix trilogy (I was born in 1996), What Dreams May Come (possibly; I was too young to realize that he was dead and in the afterlife for the entire thing)

Honestly I can’t think of any from my childhood other than those that might have been “bad” for a kid, other than shows that went right over my head like Family Guy and the like. I know I wasn’t allowed to watch South Park until I just decided to start watching it when I was around 13.

Other movies that I really liked as a kid (other than Spaceballs cause it was kinda like Star Wars, and The Matrix) that may be kinda suggestive were Mystery Men, Galaxy Quest, and Titan A.E. They may like Lord of The Rings (Arwen and Eowyn + magic and swords) and possibly Star Wars (Padmé and Princess Leia, plus Ahsoka from Clone Wars and Hera from Rebels). Although I’m a man and had an older brother that liked a lot of this stuff, so I ended up liking a lot of it too, you may get better results from other people.

At least it was consensual?

I don’t smell everything I grab, but I smell everything I eat before I put it in my mouth. Imo though it’s not like a neurodivergent sensory thing, I just like smelling good food before I eat it; kinda like a palate preparation.

Okay this is entirely unrelated but your “born without a lack of critical curiosity” really hit home for some reason.

Whenever I go to a store that has stuff I find generally interesting, I feel the need to touch it, just so I know what it feels like. I had an ex who hated whenever I did that, like she thought I was a toddler trying to look at and buy everything. It really made me feel bad.

Or 'stache.

But also, it’s kinda satisfying to see the huge chunk of hardened snot that’s been bugging the ever living hell out of you most of the day.

No. Imo, if any character could be considered autistic on that show it could be Sheen.

There is literally a discord, with a link here on Lemmy, with links in said discord to download sources. Plus there are help and troubleshooting threads.

Drue Langlois - animator/filmmaker who makes absurd and fun videos. One of my favorites

Wigglewood - another animator who’s in the process of making their own little shared world of silliness.

Oboeshoesgames - streamer who has a decent sense of humor and is actually pretty creative with coming up with little parody songs for the games he plays. He also knows a SHITTON about Bionicle and will throw in references sometimes, which is always nice to see.

RudeJackArt - artist/animator behind this masterpiece

SplinterChalk - very small YouTuber who does challenge runs in games, similar to MittenSquad (RIP Paul), but mostly focusing on the Batman: Arkham games. He does play others though.

ChadCat - he condenses other long-form YouTube videos (i.e. videos over 10 minutes) down to their most important details, usually taking up to about 20 seconds to a minute each time, calling them the “ADHD Versions.”

Venjent - DJ/producer who makes badass beats using sounds he finds out in the world, such as a squeaky door

2 Guys and A Cooler - family-run cooking channel where they make different cool things. Their video on pemmican got me interested in them.

CharlieBo313 - basically a modern anthropologist who goes to the 'hoods and ghettos of America and talks to the people who live there, and showcases what life is like.

Poe’s Sketchbook - stop-motion animator behind this badass fight

Luka Big Pants - strange guy who makes videos in that weird stuttery FMV game style. It’s all weird and absurd but it’s all really good.

Crazy Korean Cooking - a Korean family eating food, pretty much. They try different foods they never have, like Mexican and Jamaican foods, then they’ll experiment and try mixing the new stuff with their Korean food and it gets pretty fun. The parents are honestly super fun to watch because they just enjoy it all.

BM Cartoons - an animator who just makes silly little cartoons.

Edit: oh there’s more.

Fearnley Fitzroy - the animator behind this absolute masterpiece and other fun souls-like dance videos.

GilGamesHello - gamer who plays a lot of physics-based games like Exanima and Half Sword.

Spine_apples - Saruman the Stupid

TRYBALS - a very cool channel that shows western media and such to tribal villagers from Pakistan.

Bill McClintock - someone who mashes up songs from wildly different genres and somehow makes them sound fuckin awesome. Stuparena (a mashup of The Macarena and Stupefied)

Bushy - another challenge gamer, but he focuses on Elden Ring and other Souls-likes.

Bax Taylor - a musician who makes his own original songs, but also does silly covers of others like Toto doing Apple Bottom Jeans, or Frank Sinatra’s Balls In Yo Jaws.

Media Zealot - he breaks down different civilizations/organizations/other groups from different popular IPs and says why they wouldn’t be able to work in reality. Like “villains too stupid to win” and so on.

Corey Laddo - an SFM animator who makes funny shorts, based around G-man and Gordon interacting and playing out a meme or something.

God I miss being able to find whole movies split into chunks that someone uploaded. It’s how I first watched Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny.

Yeah, not watching it on console. /s

YouTube premium.

Just get uBlock or revanced.

I have a pair of Bose Bluetooth earbuds that sound pretty good imo. They’re technically for working out so they stick right in your ear nice and snug.

SpongeBob

Justice League and Justice League Unlimited

It depends on what cheese(s) you’re gonna use, but pretty much anything that would or should taste good with cheese on it. All these suggestions listed so far are pretty good.

Hell you could get real crazy with it and cook up some chicken strips for it, or some fries!

It’s the original sugar baby song

Arkham Shadow just came out on VR and people are saying it rivals other games like HL: Alyx in terms of scope and quality.

I’m watching a playthrough right now and it’s blowing my mind how awesome it looks to actually be Batman

This is a big one that I honestly still struggle with sometimes. I was on the opposite end of it for the first time earlier this year though.

I feel like this shouldn’t even be a post here. Maybe in a news community, as this links to a story, but not AskLemmy of all places.

Idk, the pizza box that can generate any pizza from anywhere is a top contender imo.
