    Infodump about your Special Interests!

    Die Kaiserin (2022) kind of activated my dormant interest in Empress Elisabeth of Austria, and after my coworker jokingly remarked 'you're talking about Sisi again?!' I stopped mentioning it at work.

    MBTI (Meyers Briggs Personality)

    It's been a while since I took this quiz, but I was a ISTP-T then too. "Friendly but very private, calm but suddenly spontaneous, extremely curious but unable to stay focused on formal studies" this rings really true for me.

    Are You A Morning, Afternoon, Evening Or Late Night Person?

    I love to stay up late, but I usually wake up early too. So that's a problem.

    A little unsure and confused

    Welcome here! I was diagnosed at 16, but had/have my share of depression and anxiety. For me, a diagnosis really helped. If you think it might benefit you, it's worth pursuing.

    Learning Other Languages

    I'm learning Rusisan. Have been for a while, but only ever sporadically. I'm thinking of taking lessons though,

    Star Wars 9: The Rise of Skywalker

    Well, yeah. It was that, or he was in love with Rey. But since they're were pushing another love story, the latter would be unlikely. The movie gave us more than enough evidence to connect the dots. But like that one scene with Lando and the other ex-stormtrooper... there was this whole story...

    Looking for DISNEY Dedicated autistics.

    I love Disney! I know the lyrics by heart from a lot of movies, and they can cheer me up. I have some Beauty and the Beast merch, because it's my favourite movie. And would love to go back to Disneyland one day.

    Not able to complete tasks.

    Relatable. The emotional toll of a 5-minute task, feels like I have to climb a mountain. After accomplishing it, it feels simple. Like it will be easier to motivate myself the next time, but that's hardly ever true. I've got an app that I put tasks in, and I check them off. It helps a little...

    Star Wars 9: The Rise of Skywalker

    Chewie was fine though, we learn that almost immediately. C-3PO has to have his memory wiped, goodbye friends! no. no just kidding, this emotional moment meant nothing because we have a back-up. Kylo Ren gets impaled. Nope, we can force heal now. Even bring back the dead, amazing. Glad we did...

    Star Wars 9: The Rise of Skywalker

    The movie was a mess. There were absolutely no stakes to anything. Except for the ending, which I did not care much about. The redemption arc was too weak to me. Why did Rose Tico disappear into the background, and why did we get new characters that get too little screen time to be developed...

    Karaoke?

    I love karaoke. I've been to bars, and I've also been to booths with friends.

    Atypical (the tv show)

    At first I felt like the show took the typical approach to an Autistic character, but Sam grew on me. Though this season was a bit of mess, Sam's moments were nice and I like the family dynamics and his brother-sister relationship with Casey.

    Understanding my partner, suspected ASD & AvPD

    Don't these words say it all? It doesn't appear like you like or even respect him anymore. It sounds pretty toxic, and I hope this won't hurt your daughter in the end. Even if he would have Autism (which we as outsiders can't diagnose, despite all of that backstory...), it sounds like you would...

    Being more social.

    There is an actual app which is called Meetup, it's neat. Many different groups, depending on where you live though. It's based on interest/activities. So you could just meet up with random people who are interested in the same events. I made some casual acquaintances that way.

    I suggested my Boyfriend May have Autism... he got angry.

    I was pretty sure I had Asperger's when I tried to get a diagnosis as a teen, when my suspicions actually got confirmed though, I kind of freaked out... I felt like no, maybe I'm just a little odd, but that's all. I think the knee-jerk response can be insulted denial. Would a diagnosis actually...

    Phonecalls = jumble of words

    The biggest hurdle is picking up at all. I take a few seconds of mental preparation, but my instinctive thought is oh noooo. I do enjoy talking to friends though. My real problem is that if someone introduces themselves on the phone, I will not remember their name unless I have heard the name...

    Roleplaying

    I've started playing D&D recently, but found myself already struggling to give my character any discernible qualities. Making up a backstory and all that, no problem. To actually act out that character in a group... that I found very challenging and I haven't succeeded in yet.
