I've spent quite a long time in the Hubski chatroom recently. johnnyFive helped me realize that I've been using Pubskitime the wrong way. So. I've made significant progress in figuring out where to go with Weaver. The game starts to take best shape it possibly could, while also promising a great load of work figuring out the true potential of the spell system. All the details are to be kept secret for now, to avoid spoilers. All I'm going to say is that I'm quite excited about its new shape. Figuring out how to talk to people at the moment. What to say. When it's worth it to speak. What's worth talking about. Talking is important to me, so I'm doing my best to excel at it. Soon time will come to go back to Tomsk to look for an apartment for the next uni year. I'm intimidated by the prospect: calling up dozens of strangers excites me in a bad way, which usually leads to mental overload. Finding good price-to-other-qualities ratio would be difficult, too: Tomsk is a student city, which means that rent is high even though so is competition. I'm returning to writing and expressing myself. My last post was a success. Yet to figure out why I stopped. I may be lightly autistic. Got reminded about researching it by Jim Jefferies at his last special, Freedumb. Explains some things about me that made me feel weird in the past. Wish more people would partake in the chatroom. From there, come great conversations, and there's something very appealing about live talks, online or offline. It's great to be here, Hubski. This community is fantastic.
Perhaps the correct term here is Aspergers? I'm not for self-diagnosis in any form, though I'm all for getting more information on the subject. The DSM-5 Manual they reference is what made the change to enveloping more diagnoses into the "Autistic Spectrum" - Aspergers being on the lower end of the spectrum - allowing for more flexibility with defining autism as a social disorder and what else defines the latter. I was diagnosed as an aspie last summer, so I think I'm able to give a bit of insight if you decide to look into it a bit further.I may be lightly autistic.
I was using the idea of the spectrum when referring to it as "lightly". Not self-diagnosing, either: just noticing that some pieces fit. Not sure if I can get such diagnosis in Russia. Haven't ever heard of such testing available. Sounds like it would make lives of a lot of children somewhat easier, given terrible children treatment here and now.
Understood, the intent was more-so cautionary in (what seems to be tough) event of pursuit. Ah! Awesome, then. For some reason, my brain keeps jumping to slap on the word 'salted' after 'lightly,' hehe. Makes for an odd combo of words and reactions when I'm reading that sentence as "lightly salted autism".Not self-diagnosing, either: just noticing that some pieces fit.
I can't imagine what I may have said, but I'm glad I was helpful however unintentionally. This. It's often dead, but when it's not it can be great fun. I'll just say that I'm on there during the day (EST, or GMT-5) Mon., Tues., Friday, and often Tues. and Thurs. evenings, plus a decent amount on the weekend. Especially this month, as I'm working OT every Saturday during the day, and I'd welcome the company.Wish more people would partake in the chatroom.
