Oh joy.
New failure mode unlocked.
Sensory sensitivity overload.
I'm pretty darn neuro-typical with a few spectrum behaviors, but never really had sensory sensitivity.
Today the arcade with the kid was just Too Much(tm). Not quite what I understand a full panic attack to be, but just generally not ok.
My deepest sympathy to ND friends for whom this is a daily challenge.
It wasn't "too loud" or "too bright" (normal arcade beeps and boops I've been fine with before). Just suddenly too much.

@pseudonym@mastodon.online this describes every DEFCON and Black Hat I’ve ever attended. Vegas is outright hostile.
