A: We really just need to organize and put a container around all of our stuff, by putting them inside objects, because if we don’t, we’ll go insane trying to keep track of all the different variables and things.

A: It depends on the context.
If someone was at an event and said "I have all my stuff together to start" it would mean they are prepared and ready to start.
If someone said "I have all my stuff together to start" it could also mean, as Robin_Gramlich said, that their life is well put together or organized. This meaning is more commonly used, and is often used as "I have all my stuff together." Possible usages of this meaning are if a friend says "Are you sure you want to do this" and you were to say "I have all my together to start."

A: 1. I was totally hung up on my own stuff the other day -- I was completely preoccupied with my own thoughts/worries/problems that day. This could mean they were distracted, or worried, or were not in a very good mood, or were not very social. Things like that.

--

2. It must be really boring for him to play with me on my own -- I'm not sure this sentence completely makes sense. If someone plays on their own that means they play alone, with no one else. If someone plays with someone else, then it is not alone.

So maybe it is supposed to be:

It must be really boring for him to play on his own. -- it must be really boring for him to play all alone, by himself. To have no one else to play with must be really boring for him.

or

It must be really boring for him to play with only me. -- I bet he wishes he had more friends to play with instead of just me. I am not very interesting to play with.
