| My mother not at all but my father while we don't see eye to eye with everything he helps out sometimes and we still do things together unconditionally. It's healthy from my point of view even though we are also a bit distant from each other, there's never any arguments. My mother on the other hand,... |

| Yes I'm an age regressor, it's also weird because because I have a hyper logical part of me into biology and new integrative measures through that for my life and others. But I've just come to terms with the fact that I'm like a 10 year old with a hyper intelligent AI system and I don't even care to... |

| I normally just try to explain in the best detail I could about what is going on, on a biological level in a somewhat simple fashion and I think that is really the best you can do if they are still unable to understand which many still won't as your average person also isn't going to be able to gras... |

I don't really tell jokes as much as incorporate a mannerism I have into some humorous twist usually involving repeating a word that was already a bit nonsensical I normally use with a diversion of my usual body lang... |

| I'm good at budgeting things and planning things out but in the details my downfall is that I'm pretty impulsive. That's one of my downfalls in general when it comes to practical functioning, I'm much more of an unhibited individual driven by a weird combination of spiritual logic and emotional outp... |

| Hello. When a professional (doctor, therapist, psychologist, et cetera) refers to an autistic person's "restrictive interests" what do they mean? It's how people describe focused, passionate interests they don't share. I mean, you could call their marriages restrictive, but if they like b... |

In any case there are levels to everything and for example from a lifetime of experience ... |
