For my whole life I've been a bit of a "philosopher", a bit of an observer, making observations and chewing the fat.

But no, philosophy is dead, the realm of the whimsical and the self-indulgent.

I'm not a philosopher my observations are simply an autistic man trying to make sense of a confusing reality through systems, formulae and theories.

I don't want to be a "philosopher" any more, I want to be an autistic man coping with reality.

Does what I say make sense?

I'm definitely a system-builder. I think that's one of the several distinct species of aspie.
