26, she/her, living in germany 🚩🏴

here to post about my weird hyper-obsessions

currently: gundam, magical girls, chinese, language in general, a bunch of trashy anime and donghua, the three kingdoms, the krabat legend, a certain 2000s era trash goth band

also posting about the frustrations of teaching myself how to code with a gun strapped to my head

that big picture thing forget what it's called: a black and blue still of a girl and a raven at a well from - you guessed it - karel zeman's animated krabat adaptation

the autistic self help book i'm listening to just told me to quit my overpaid finance job to pursue my dream of a second hand hello kitty store

i have never managed to hold down a single job for longer than 18 months, and none of those ever paid me more than 15 bucks an hour

i wanna punch somebody in the face

@niamhgarvey @dmbaturin @actuallyautistic which ones do you use?

i just got the engage ones had little trouble hearing my gf in a noisy train station, but the problem was that i wasn't talking loudly enough for her to understand me over the background noise (that was, of course, massively reduced for me)

Hello, fellow @actuallyautistic !

I am looking for podcasts recommendations on Autism (and managing one's). DMs are open!

I've got my faves in the ADHD space ('Hacking your ADHD', the ADDitide mag one), but I realise I've never, this far, explored....

(Wait for it)

...the audible spectrum.

(I'm legit after reccys, this wasn't just a setup for this pun, though it was a factor...)

@Autistrain @MrBerard @actuallyautistic naming your pod "a team podcast" is the most horrible seo ever, i can't find it ANYWHERE 😭😭

How did my comrades come to know that they’re autistic?

@JeremyMallin @theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic the fact that do many autistics are failed by the medical establishment all their lives and have to realize they're autistic themselves before even getting a vague chance at a diagnosis makes me so fucking angry

watching donghua is such a throwback lol. the fansubs take "keikaku means plan" to a whole new level

and they got ADS. like, the episode will stop for a moment for the characters to tell you how great cornetto ice cream is. i can't. i love it so much.

@StrassenKatze @actuallyautistic i still remember the childhood friend i recently reconnected with whose reaction was a 3 minute voice message where she explained that she is "actually a bit autistic as well" but she has done a lot of mindfulness n shit and now whenever she gets the impulse to do "one of these behaviours" she just, doesn't do them!!

i did my best to stay polite after that but uh

yeah we don't talk anymore
