    Life Changes

    Well, I've made the move and I've been here for about a month now. I like the place and the people, and it's nice to have time and space to relax. My only "issue" now is that I have no idea what to do for work, though technically there's no urgency since I'm living at my parents' place. Since...

    Everyone, Name an anime that you watched...

    i'm watching one piece again, but through one pace, which edits down the show to be more in pace with the manga. i also checked out the first episode of jujutsu kaisen, and the concept seems pretty cool

    Current book(s) you're reading?

    i'm currently about halfway through my ebook copy of the divine comedy and really loving it! as with a lot of older literature, it's hard to understand word by word, but i get ideas of what's happening in larger chunks. i like the flowiness of his writing and the way it will occasionally rhyme...

    (Soup and Graham Crackers) Weird Food Combinations

    *Little* Things That Annoy You (Pet Peeves)

    Ever since I was little, being in a bumpy car has always made me so upset. I clench my jaw, but I really want to shout and punch something. What's something that seems not to bother other people but really sets you off?

    Autism and Taking on Others' Perspective as Truth

    i'm moving soon and had my final meeting with my psychologist this week, and we were curious if this is a me thing or am autism thing, so i'm interested in you all's experience. i found that in the interpersonal conflicts that i went through over the past few years, i consistently took the...

    How do you view faith or belief in God?

    it depends on the particular church. i've been in churches where i feel very welcome even though i don't speak the language, and i've been in churches where i speak the language but don't feel at peace. yes. the only people who were turned away from jesus were those who turned themselves away...

    Does anyone create all their friends in their head?

    i had an imaginary friend as a child, but i dont remember what it was like. and in my head i dont actually hear thoughts or see pictures, so its hard to imagine having conversations with an imaginary friend... when i think, its like i'm silently thinking the words, no audio, no visual.

    Self-diagnosis and invalidation from family

    oh, yeah... my old housemate did that a lot. he said he was supportive, but whenever i was actually being autistic he would get weird about it and we would have these drawn out conversations about how i was bothering him and needed to try harder to not bother him. i moved out recently, so that...

    Self-diagnosis and invalidation from family

    welcome! i'm self-diagnosed as well (with the help of a psychologist) and while my mother and sister are supportive, i haven't told my dad because he generally has the same attitude about labels and whatnot. i'm not planning on telling him directly, but if things come up naturally, my mom has...

    Roommate... Again...

    thanks @Luc Ienn, i'm viewing this as a transitional living space since i'm hoping to move to be closer to family. im so tired of dealing with roommates i think im just going to put up with this one for the time being since the idea of getting into it sounds even more exhausting. i'm also going...

    Roommate... Again...

    i recently moved out of my old place and it was a huge chore. the new spot i moved in to is ok, its a townhome and i have two roommates now instead of one. the location is nice because i can take the metro to commute most days instead of driving, but the downside (and its a big one) is that the...
