Oh no. I worked so hard to be able to maintain eye contact in conversations (autistic) and now I'm questioning it.

A simulation could be hacked, and that's really fun to think about
I'm confused by the fuck/fight portion. Is it normal to want to fuck or fight every person who maintains eye contact? Have I been unknowingly threatening/coming into all of my work colleagues?
"Transgenders" is not a word. Please use "transgender people" or something similar.
The shooter was trans. Heads up to the trans homies to be cautious and vigilant in the coming days, as right-wing media will almost certainly lean into to this and it could cause backlash against the trans community.
The rest of the breakdown is: 40% once a week, 36% once a month or less. I guess I fall into the latter bracket.
That's awesome and it sounds like it works for you, but I suspect it isn't the norm. I could only find data for 50+ year olds, and among them only 24% talk to friends daily. That seems about right for my adult friends group - I get the sense that a quarter of them are very social and the rest are too busy to socialize that often.
I think that level of interaction might be normal in adolescence and even young adulthood, but by the time you're working, living on your own, and maybe have a family I really don't think most people talk to their friends that often.
Is it normal to talk to friends more than once a week? That seems like a strange standard imo. Even my besties and I touch base maybe once or twice a month at most, and see eachother once every 4 to 6 months.
The book Annihilation centered on a "tower" that was a mysterious, fleshy, downward spiraling tunnel with creepy writing on the walls. The imagery was so unsettling.
For some reason it is entirely absent from the movie. Like... that was half of the point of the book - a "tower" that climbed down into the earth instead of towards the sky. Why would you cut that?
Agreed, I made lifelong friends in my college anime club.

There is an incredibly graphic up-close video available. I strongly recommend that no one watches it. I consider myself very desensitized and it still made me sick.
I will provide a description:
Charlie is struck in the neck slightly to the side and his body immediately goes stiff. Blood gushes strongly from his neck - a liter at least. He slumps. It very much appears that he was immediately killed.
