| ...these actually came with a subwoofer. Previously, I'd been listening to music through headphones and through a set of low-priced computer speakers. The moment I plugged these in and put on some tunes, my thought was WOW! The music sounds so much better . While there was some definite improvement ... |

| Who doesn't like cats? They are very pleasant to stroke, and what's better than when your cat purrs next to your head when you go to sleep? They're independent, yet often enjoy your company. And they're the perfect size to stand on your desk and keep you company when you're working from home. I can'... |

| This one was odd and somewhat disturbing. In this dream, I was awoken by a funny sound. It seemed to be coming from my phone. I checked the phone and got this text message.

| IQ isn't a diagnostic feature of autism. ... People are given an abbreviated IQ test to determine their non-verbal or performance intelligence (PIQ) and their verbal intelligence (VIQ). I find a study (2012) that states "Performance IQ (PIQ) greater than verbal IQ (VIQ) is often observed in st... |

| Eh, I guess I'll take a stab at this despite the fact that I'm really more NLD than anything else. Don't have anything better to do tonight with the current rise in COVID cases. Are you diagnosed / self-diagnosed, and at what age? The original Asperger's diagnosis was at age 8 I would like to say? C... |

| Yes - I know that in my case that professionals were not able to provide a deterministic answer. When I was a child, the answer was yes, but when I asked a psychologist a few years ago, she said "I'm not sure." What was noted, however, is that I had challenges with visual memory, visual mo... |

Am I the only one who's never been to a movie theatre in my life?
I don't even watch movies on Netflix... movies don't interest me. |

| Personally I have a decent long-term memory, but it is very weak before the age of about 10 or so. Pretty much the only thing I remember from that time is getting ready for a hurricane and the aftermath of the storm... and a massive snow fort my father and I built after a snowstorm. Guess I have a p... |

| As someone with NLD (not AS), I'm not entirely sure how qualified I am to speak on this, but I'll try.

| The only official difference between the two, as far as I can tell, is that Asperger's didn't have a speech delay. Unofficially, however, people with Asperger's were/are more likely to show signs of a proposed condition, named developmental visual spatial disorder. In popular culture, it's more comm... |
