    light sensitivity/photophobia

    Hi, I'm looking for a solution for my light sensitivity. I feel like I've gotten pretty good solutions for other sensory issues, and I have a solid "sensory soothing kit." Light sensitivity is tough though, and it also most commonly triggers meltdowns for me. When I'm outside I wear sunglasses...

    Your favorite genre of book

    I think I'm an interesting case. I highly dislike most contemporary adult fiction (I think because I tend to feel like those novels have ZERO characters that are likeable or relatable to me, but I'm not really sure), but I enjoy contemporary YA and even the occasional children's/middle reader...

    Hello there!

    Wow!!! Hi, I would love to talk, especially since I have definitely been unsure if I should pursue it as my major/main academic focus. I'm obsessed with the Greek tragedies, particularly Sophocles at the moment actually. I've only gotten into the classics truly in the last few months so it's so...

    new here, hello

    People were mentioning bug pics. I have a ton but this is one of my favorite encounters. Some kind of rhinoceros or stag beetle I guess, I moved it from the path in Shanghai. I was always the kid at school who picked up bugs with no fear lol You mentioned mantidae as well so here's another...

    I like bugs a lot too. Any particular ones that interest you? I like moths a lot, but also beetles and dragonflies are really cool.

    Hello there!

    Hi. My name is Nico and I am 19 and female. I was diagnosed with ASD this past spring and have been looking into new resources since. It took me 18 years to even consider a neurodevelopmental condition of any kind, having always been considered a mental illness case, so it was a big relief to...
