    Do you like or hate watching sport?

    I hate sports. I think it's boring to watch it on TV and I had no interest in EURO 2020 at all. To be fair, I don't watch much TV - I only really like watching anime, cartoons, and some documentaries.

    What autism resources would you like to see?

    The thing I'd love to see most would be more resources for autistic adults. It seems to me when people think of "special needs"/mental disabilities, children and teenagers come to mind first and foremost. But autistic children grow up into autistic adults. Most resources on autism online and in...

    What was the main reason you joined to the forum?

    I was an on and off user of Wrong Planet, but felt over the years reluctant to use it as moderation and maintenance deteriorated as there were spam posts everywhere, and I was once redirected to a page that downloaded malware on my system (it's gone now). WP has also seen somewhat of a surge of...

    How many of you have older parents?

    My mum was 37 and my dad 35 when I was born. They're both neurotypical though one of my uncles has a lot of Asperger traits (but undiagnosed).

    Hi

    Interesting. What you described I would describe as 'sound system setup' rather than sound design. Foley is actually only a specific part of the sound design process though, it's when you start reproducing sound effects for film and video yourself (eg the process of recording coconuts bashing...

    Hi

    Thank you, everyone ^^ Sound design is basically the process of creating sound tracks for media (for example, it's how the sounds are put together in a film or TV show, video game etc). I just find the process quite interesting and fun to do myself (hopefully I'm soon helping a friend of mine...

    Do you play video games?

    I'm not what you call a gamer but I do like a handful of games. I love the Pokemon game series (I completed Moon and White; currently playing Emerald) and do like some mobile gacha games like Love Live SIF and Bandori GBP. I like the Touhou Project franchise as well. I'm also beginning to...

    In what ways do you, specifically, differ from the stereotypical perceptions of autism?

My interests are Pokemon, some anime, music, technology and sound design, and some other things. I actually made this account...
