whats a hyperfixation? is it like where u fix stuff multiple times in seconds?

I've absolutely been obsessed with the career of Weird Al Yankovic lately. Its genuinely so interesting to me and the fact that some of his earliest work is lost media drives me up the wall!!!! I love digging up old TV appearances and radio spots he did, my favorite of which is below:

There's so many layers to hiss career, from his early days on the Dr. Demento radio show to his breakout 80s hits to his movie to his sadly short lived tv show... I grew up with his stuff, too, so it all adds a layer of nostalgia and familiarity to it. I also find his whole stchick very validating as an autistic person, it inspires me to be more wierd and authentic in my real life :]

I also may have a small (see: enormous) crush on him but that's neither here nor there...

man i need 2 go to bed BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im revisiting one of my favorite games of all time lately - TRON 2.0 - and its still just as fantastic as when i first picked it up!

there's a LOT of parallels between TRON 2.0 and TRON Legacy because 2.0 itself and the characters within it ended up in a weird legal gray area between monolith studios & disney... so disney just copied half the plot when they made legacy and then made it worse. lmao. lol.

in the game, you play as jet bradley. he's the son of alan bradley, the creator of tron, the program from the original movie. jet is Going Through It... his mom, lora, died when he was a kid in an accident involving the laser. turns out his dad's been continuing lora's work all this time. he had a rough time in high school, couldnt focus on anything but computer classes, got in trouble with the law for hacking things... we dont know too much ab what happens to him in between then and now but it's now 2003 and he's working at encom--dad's company--and living at home with him while he does game dev stuff in a different department.

since this is a TRON game, you eventually end up inside the computer... i dont wanna spoil too much of the plot but it's really complicated and takes a lot of weird twists. but it really is like a y2k version of tron: legacy where you get a gun. LOL.

highly recommend getting it from the next gog.com sale because it's between $2.50 and $3, but i bought it for the full $10 current price and dont regret it. (but get the gog version and not the steam version, the steam version has some weird glitches.)
