Yeah. Disc . One of my retirements involved computer security. I am therefore very, very suspicious of computers and the Internet. I see no reason that my desktop, car, and my bride's phone should be chatting with each other. And I definitely see no reason our TV, thermostat, and robot vacuum clean...

We were also working our way through the Marvel Cinematic Universe but we paused after Iron Man 3 because the next thing would be Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and I th...

Hey, I like to be straightforward so before you go on to read my post keep in mind I'm not officially diagnosed and therefore may not actually be on the spectrum. Being obsessed with my facial features, and to some degree, symmetry, in a very negative way, was a phase I also went through, I believe...

Hello and welcome. I am from Wales. I have been to England a few times.

Cool! I went to a convention in Cardiff with my family once. We're all fans of Torchwood so we also went to see where part of the series was filmed in Cardiff Bay. It was nice, I'd like to see more of Wales someday.

Hello world - I'm never good with introductions but you can call me John or JF (don't worry, it's not my real name). I'm a 24 year old guy who was diagnosed with Asperger's in late 2019.
