| Thank you all so much for your responses! :heart: I'm asking some other autistic friends for input as well...hopefully I'll be able to cover as much as possible. c: Also: One of the most common and harmful myths is that people with autism do not care about anyone except themselves. Please dispel tha... |

| So I'm planning on doing a little zine-style comic about autism--specifically, dispelling myths and providing useful info. The only issue is, I'm not quite sure what all I should include! What are some subjects you would like me to cover? I already plan on covering special interests, stimming, socia... |

| I dunno about the rest of you, but I have some activities that I find incredibly soothing. Not stims (though I have those too), but just activities I find comforting. One of the most comforting things for me is puzzles of all sorts. My favorite is probably a puzzle I myself came up with--I call it a... |

It's been smelling really lovely here lately too. Crisp, kind of cool but not frigid. I love fall and winter. ^^ |

| I managed to find an affordable-but-decent-quality wig for one of my cosplays! And since I have the other two wigs I need for SacAnime, that's one thing out of the way. :D Who are you gonna cosplay as? :-) The wig in question is for Aradia Megido from Homestuck. More specifically, I'm gonna be Arad... |

| I have a major fabric sensitivity, myself. I absolutely cannot STAND the feel of chiffon! It makes me want to puke. :( I also hate hate hate bar soap. I have naturally dry skin, and it just makes my skin feel even drier and grosser. I'm a body wash girl exclusively, and even take a bottle with me wh... |

I'm coming out of a pretty bad depressive episode right now. I have type II, so unfortunately those ar... |

| Hmm. Well, I personally find that Amanda Palmer puts out a lot of really emotional stuff, and she might well be right up your alley--though she's very much an acquired taste. (She was also in a band called The Dresden Dolls earlier on; they're just as worth listening to.) I've also been enjoying Ben... |

| Mine are pretty obvious, although they probably seem a bit less unusual since I hang out in a lot of fandom circles. See, my special interests are centered primarily around cartoons and comics--especially Homestuck, but also many others. Since I hang out mostly with people who are also into stuff li... |

| It really depended on the school and on the teacher for me. At my elementary school (at least, the one I went to from 2nd to 6th grade), asking questions was generally wholeheartedly encouraged--except for in 4th grade, where my teacher often got very upset about it. One notable example was her beco... |

| I absolutely do! Especially at conventions--not only are video games a good way for me to decompress from sensory overload, but a lot of other people bring their 3DSes as well, so it's easy to get Streetpasses or find someone to challenge to a quick Pokemon battle or what have you. :D That reminds m... |
