One thing that taking these autism tests and related tests has helped with is seeing oddities about me that I never considered. I mean, I most certainly fiddle with them until I reach high score, organizing in my head what is being counted. Who doesn't want the high score in any particular...

After the events in Israel of October 7th, I fell into a pretty bad spiral of fear and doom. Watching subsequent world events affected me very strongly until finally, this past weekend, I pretty much just fell apart. My blogging here during that time was emotional and I have removed some things...
When experiencing a hardship i cannot talk to anyone about it. Bc they dont know i am autistic and if they knew who knows what will they do to me.. I wish i had a protector - mentor in my life. I try to be self reliant but sometimes the negativity becomes too heavy for me to carry. I try to...

Monday - Sullivan King & Kai Wachi - Riot (Kompany Remix) [Monstercat Release] The drop at 2:04 was nice. I don’t have much to say about the rest of the song though. Comparing this version with the original, I’m disappointed that they made the bass quieter in the chugging part near the...

Monday MUZZ - Pressure on the Masses [Monstercat Release] Considering that this was (if I recall correctly) the first original song from this artist in quite a long time, with said artist being among my all-time favourite MC artists, I had high expectations for this song going in...

I sing a song of do as you please, And how it brought our world to it's knee's. We relinquished regulation, Turned oversight to masturbation. It worked wonders for the shares, Justified by doctrinaires. We vote them in to make things right, And once again they show their spite. And every time...
I was diagnosed with atypical autism literally just two weeks ago. According to the psychologist who evaluated me, I really have Asperger's Syndrome, but she said that since the DSM has removed Asperger's from its diagnoses, she gave me a diagnosis of "atypical autism," as I lacked one of the...

Monstercat song review: 16-20 Oct, 2023 Monday Thirst and Chyl - Drifter The transition at 1:19 had me thinking that this could actually be decent, but then the song was over pretty much straight afterwards… yyyeah, this feels like a song that should’ve been given a bit more time before being...

I will be meeting with a health care provider for the first official step toward my evaluation for ASD. I believe that today's step is just the initial screening to see whether I get to take a full evaluation. Still, I am extremely nervous. This will be my first time speaking with an authority...

My wife shared with me today the fact that having the framework of autism as a prism through which to view my behaviors has already helped her to understand me better. We have a fantastic marriage and she is a remarkably patient and empathetic person who also happens to have an academic...

I got a text from an old co-worker of mine today. He's a really good guy whom I respect, but we only chat once or twice a year. We usually talk about politics and current events. Today I told him that I'm making peace with possibly being ASD1. His response? "Oh. Makes sense. It also explains...

As I make peace with the falling away of my religious faith, I have been going to atheist YouTube channels and reading some threads which discuss religion. I have been very surprised by some aspects of the atheist channels and by some of the posts by non-religious people. The number one thing I...

In 7th grade, I got a typewriter for Christmas (because my handwriting was so bad and a teacher told my parents I should have a typewriter). I was out of school for Christmas vacation and had a new typewriter. So I wrote a short story. I put the story in one of my dresser drawers after it was...
