you know the feeling of watching an expert at something and sort of understanding how they do it but knowing you could never be that skilled

i've found the opposite of that while watching a video of some guy playing a rhythm game my friend posted

i've never quite watched someone be so powerful and skilled at something and felt such complete "what the fuck is going on. what the fuck is going on. this is horrifying. we need to return to living in caves" horror at it. it's an oversensory anxiety attack personified. it's incredible

You know what is great for this?

notITG, a modded/spinoff of In The Groove. This is, to be clear, a DDR-style game, with a step pad with four arrows.

A lot of modded rhythm games are really good for that. (I'm only okay at the game, all told :P the good players are really good.)

just so you know

if I wasn't so hopelessly a housecat and more wzl inclined instead, I'd absolutely be a Fisher. AKA the North American greater tree weasel, the big chunky sibling of martens, the ones that scream like a small human being eviscerated at night.

Fishers are so good.

You must understand. They are very good. I have written two stories about them.
