Streaming service

As opposed to digital download and physical media, it's a type of online multimedia that is delivered and consumed in a continous manner from a source, with little or no intermediate storage in network elements. It's a usually a type of subscription service.

The term "streaming" refers to the delivery method of content, rather than content itself.

Notable examples include Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video and HBO Max.

stimming

Stim, stims or stimming is short for "self stimulation". Almost everyone does it(tapping feet, cracking knuckles, twiddling thumbs), but in autistic people these behaviors are more pronounced and may seem downright strange. Autistic people often engage in stimming when they are stressed, to self regulate and sometimes to express emotion.

Common autistic stims are: rocking back and forth, headbanging(not the music kind), finger flicking/rippling, spinning, humming, repeating words or sounds and complex body contortions.
Good music makes me stim a lot.

Stimming shouldn't be discouraged, it's a means for me to understand my environment.

Joe: Yes.

save scumming

In video games: Manually saving your game over and over again (usually before important decisions/boss battles, etc.) to make sure that if you screw up later on, you can always just return to your most recent saved game.

Used in games that allow players to save whenever they want, thus making the game substantially easier because there's no real penalty for messing up, and it lets the player know what to expect ahead.
If I wasn't save scumming so much, I would've had to restart this mission a shitton of times.

cross streaming

The ultimate bond of brotherhood. To guys pee at the same time and try cross streams with each other. The ability for them to pee in front of each other resembles ultimate trusts in each other. The bond formed is stronger then the bond between Siamese twins.

Boy 2: Jeez, I don’t know if I’m ready for that type of commitment yet!
