qott: are you autistic? what are you autistically passionate about?
>are you autistic?HOW DID YOU KNOW?!>what are you autistically passionate about?idk One Piece?
>>38632190one piece is probably the most malebrained anime
>>38632084shit edition. also ITS ST4TG NOT ST4TGEN FUCK GET IT RIGHT
>>38632084>are you autisticof course>autistic passionim the pokemon/comic book autist from last thread
>>38632084>autism editionI support this very much. thank you anon/ette>qottDiagnosed since year7 (High school),and very very passionate about a couple specific genres of music, one or two ps2 games, and Pokemon too (classic autism choice, I know). I love collecting so I spend far too much time/money primarily on CDs/tapes, old band merch, VHS and a few figurines.
>>38632214
>>38632084>autistic?no>autistically passionate about?i don't have autism so i don't do the hyperfixation thing but i am the annoying type of person who pays attention to and reads a lot about politicsalso i did my injection today and my boobs hurt
>>38632251>im the pokemon/comic book autist from last threadLol, we posted here again at the same time. I just read your responses from last thread and came here, I got up late though so I havent made a discord profile yet, unless youre also on twitter /or livejournal(very unlikely)
>>38632305omg i thought you were gone lol, i had to get up pretty early so i barely slept lol.im not on twitter anymore but i can make an account to message if youd rather that over discord (i do think theres a dm limit on twitter now though). ive never made a livejournal either but i could also do that.
>>38632084>autisticand adhd>passionatethe adhd kinda makes that difficult
>>38632349just realized i said lol twice in a row i really am tired>>38632394wdym? i have adhd and still get hyperfixations
>>38632472hyperfixations aren't really passions imo
my pooner ex dumped me (a cis male) to go st4t only and then killed himself 2 years later
>>38632488oh fair enough
>>38632503
>>38632532eh, it's the life he chose for himself. i tried my best, but you can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved
>>38632084>autismhow do I get an ftm bf that DOESN'T have autism
>>38632084Since this is the autism topic, anyone else used to post on /atg/ when it was still up?
>>38632598doesn't exist
>>38632084i have watched this show over 3 dozen times
>>38632214Yeah generic shonen is malebrained af, autistic women only watch good anime
>>38632866Eh not really, a lot of those are popular with general surface-anime fan. Even something like JoJo isnt entirely malebrained since its so popular. And Im saying that as an FtM who loves JoJo. Maybe moreso Fist of the North Star type shounen, thats very malebrained.
>>38632084>yes, along with adhd>splatoon
>>38632839I feared as much
>>38632503that one schizo anon would love you im sure
>>38632084>QottYes>What are you autistically passionate about Film. Rate my film collection thread. MtF by the way!
I guess history, but it's not really an interest I can "do" anything with like someone can with making art or something, I just learn new stuff and then go "well this is bad, but it's not as bad as being in Constantinople during the plague of Justinian I"t. mtf. Oh and also I like studying the bibble but more as a genre of accessible ancient literature than a religious dogma.I'm pretty sure history is seen as rather boring to most people though :(
>>386332243/10
>>38633352What why? :( why so low?
>>38633385too much normie slop
>>38633224I also love film, I actually majored in film studies! I have like 2 huge bookshelves full of Blu-Rays
>>38633564What do you think of my collection anon? c: Other anon doesn't like it but I'm proud of it.
>>38633224Oh by the way, about Harry Potter since it is in there, my mom got me it, because I grew up loving it, and being that it's a gift from my mom, I can't bare to part ways with it.
This thread is just all mtfs yearning for bf isn't it. I just want a guy that understands being transgender why does it have to be so rare
>>38633224>blu-raysSo very gross
>>38633641It's really cool!I see a lot of movies that I have on there too!>>38633951why must you call me out like this>>38633952Blu-Rays are awesome, I got a 4k TV a while ago, I'd like to upgrade my collection to 4k but it's BIIIIIIIIIG so It'll take a lot of time/money
>>38633951>all mtfsI mean the whole board is like that but theres a fair amount of other FtMs on here
>>38633951i mentioned this before but i think its just a visibility thing. most people who are openly trans are either early in transition/not passing or are people who want to be visibly trans and make it their identity. for those of us who are just normal men and women, we dont attach the label to ourselves or talk about about it at all so we arent seen. a lot of us also disengage from communities once we start to pass because other people start to get a sour/jealousthink about it this way, if you pass and live your day to day as a normal woman, would you want trans plastered underneath photos of you on a dating app? the answer is probably no and you can bet that men feel the exact same way. theres not really any way that we can meet each other without openly saying were trans, which opens us up to a lot of bullshit that nobody wants to deal with
>>38632251how old r you? i love ds pokemon too
>>38633963>Blu-Rays are awesomeGod no, DVDs are perfect, VHS is even better if theyre available
>>38633952Why?
>>38634195Modern, gay, unnecessary, impractical, etc.
>>38632951Jojo isn't really a generic shonen like one piece, it could be argued to be a seinen if anything
>>38634325i think jojo fits none of the classifications because araki just makes it dumb and silly because it amuses him. its not made for any audience besides himself
>>38634036You basically have to signal you're trans in /some/ if you're at all interested in t4t though, or even just being irl friends with other trans people. Even though I pass I still vastly prefer trans people I can vibe with over cis peopleI'm starting college next week and hope I can meet more people there without the aforementioned bullshit, but honestly I've experienced it from even other trans people so I'm still a little nervous
>>38632084>qott: are you autistic?Yes diagnosed level 2 autism. >what are you autistically passionate about?Sonichu and sonic and stripes.
>>38632084yes.horses and making alot of $.and fuck you.
>>38632084>qottastronomy!! at least currently my interests are all over the placesaturn is passing through the taurus constellation! i was taking some pictures of the night sky recently in a remote town with little light pollution and i saw this bright star that i thought at first was part of taurus but realized it wasn't. turns out that's saturntaurus is barely visible in this picture but it should go about like this. i picked this one because i'm pretty sure i also captured starlink. god i love the universeoh yeah also i wish i had a bf
>>38634325I know, bad wording, I didnt mean it was shounen just that its a very male-centric series obviously>>38634373I think seinen is a fair categorization though
>>38633951Im a FtM yearning for a nice tgal :(
>>38634373Anime genres are kind of silly tbf but what I meant is the very generic shonen formula anime like one piece, dragon ball and naruto are particularly malebrained, autistic women usually watch more interesting anime
>>38634519nvm that's jupiter i am fucking retarded.i am not remaking the image but that is jupiter not saturn
>>38632258What genres of music? And what PS2 games? I'll give you the malebrain/fembrain verdict
>>38634436i agree but the thing about it how publicly you want to signal it. especially in the current environment. theres no way anyone should be putting trans anywhere near a picture of them right now. so then it comes down to in person community and that comes with its own issues. i think it really depends on how your local community is, some can be chill and just made up of normal people, but some can be super cliquey and full of the weirdest people on the planet. if youre starting college you should probably be ready for the high chance that itll be the latter for you on campus at leastits also a problem that once you let people know youre trans it never goes away. most cis people will see you as weird/creepy/fake and a lot of the lgbt community will not let go of the trans thing. they will keep reminding you of it and bring it up in front of people that have no business hearing it. sometimes i think about starting a lowkey tranner commune where i can make sure only relatively normal people get in. i think that would be kinda cool, just a whole village of trans people tucked away somewhere where nobody annoying comes and bothers us
>>38634537i dont watch a lot of anime but i really like mushishi and natsume yuujinchou. idk if anyone else has seen them or if theyd be malebrain or femalebrain but i like the slow pace and spirity vibe
>>38634480Might be a bit off topic but I'm curious, how did your interest in sonichu start? I used to watch the chris chan documentary series so I know about it all basically but why do you have such a huge interest in sonichu?
like i was actually diagnosed on the spectrum by margarette bauman at ladders research in welleseley massachusetts..if you dont understand who that is your not even autistic and shut up.
>>38634534Hey :)
>>38634618>2005>2008Gay, anything after 90s is lame
20 years of my autistic legendary lifestyle has mainlined autism...like 20 years ago when i was diagnosed with tism things.there wasn't tism people.there was add/adhd people.>>38634645thats what you fucks dont understand.i meme'd this whole shit up.your entire culture.came from autistic children in basements.sometimes i want to flex my crypto history on you but i dont want simpys.
>>38634633>how did your interest in sonichu start?I started the chris chan doc right after my old special interest ended. I like sonic and pokemon and bright colours. Sonichu fits all of that perfectly and the time was just right for a new special interest. I like all the characters. My favorite is magi-chan sonichu.
>>38634673ok? ig youll have to watch the same things over and over again if thats how you feel
>>38634725Clearly clueless as to how many straight-to-VHS OVAs there were before 2001... unfortunate for you
>>38634580Thanks for sharing all your thoughts anon, I'll still give it a shot with the on campus meet up but try and temper my expections and not talk about trans stuff outside there.
>>38634816sure but most of them arent gonna be great. no matter what time period you pick the majority of the media that actually gets made isnt gonna be to your taste
>>38635006Clueless again! You underestimate the value of pre-2005 creations. All highly appealing to me
>>38634148ew no, Blu-Ray is objectively superior in every way
>>38635163For real! 4K bluray especially! I always grab those over Bluray, I only buy Bluray if a 4K Doesn't exist
>>38635163>>38634324>Modern, gay, unnecessary, impractical, etc.As I said..
>>38634148i would watch vhs tapes with you, anon. just for that shitty quality nostalgia... i can get into it..
>>38635223>shitty quality nostalgia...You get it. 4k is unnatural/unnecessary, you only need that when youre going to the cinema to watch a film>i would watch vhs tapes with youI wish I could do that with someone, sometime in the future, I have quite a few tapes and itd be nice to get to share them
>>38635415an no flatscreen tv.we would be using a tv set from the 90's most likely. or one of those ornate cabinet tv sets from the 80s
>>38635415Tbf I actually am of the belief there is one film that is required to watch on VHS. Pic rel. This is coming from the anon who likes 4K and Blurays by the way.
>>38635456kino.yes, you understand.there is a quality difference between "film" and blueray.. i can understand both.but something's are meant to be on tape.i can really get into a quiet night on a comfy couch with a few vhs tapes.lowkey nights the old fashioned way.
>>38632598why would you want that
for example and easy one.wizard of oz. do it on tape.not blueray.need the snapping/cigarette burn/blemish/popping sound effect of the film.not the cleaned up stuff.captcha gak.yes i need some film to be very gak'd
>>38635163>>38635196can people actually tell when something is 4k? am i the only one who's vision has a kind of grain over it so i can't tell the difference past a certain point?
>>38635471While I understand your sentiment, at the same time, owning a 4K is liking you own the original film reel practically. I love being able to see the film grain, and just how detailed it is. There are a lot of things on 4K I have noticed in that medium for films I've seen on DVD that I otherwise wouldn't have noticed.
>>38635415>>38635216>4k is unnatural/unnecessaryI disagree; I love the high-quality movies we're able to watch at home nowadays>>38635490I can for sure tell a difference
>>38635506Exactly this! It's so beautiful and like having a literal movie theater in your house, the colors are so deep, and the image is so crisp
>>38635506same anoni agree also.cause i love being able to see so much details in everything with 4k. that is what wow'd me about 4k.that i could see blemishes in characters skin, and fine details that does not stand out on other mediums.clarity like being there.
>>38635638Exactly anon. I have a 50 inch 4K, that's also an OLED, and God some films are just gorgeous on it. Cost me a pretty penny tho, $1500
I am not even remotely interested in “straight t4t” (I’m an hrt enby so hmm how would that even work exactly?) but I clicked on this thread cuz of the theme. Hell yeah. The only thing I hate is how the majority of so-called zoomer “autists” I meet these days are usually just neurotypicals who are a bit quirky cuz the diagnostics is too lenient these days imo. Anybody else here considered “higher support needs?” As in like, you will probably never be able to live a normal life? Just wonderin cuz I need friends lol
>>38635448>no flatscreen tv.Of course, I have a very nice 90s box TV with VHS/DVD player combo >>38635456For sure, and I love VHS for that reason, its a lot more fitting for some films.>>38635623I guess its like an audiophile thing since I never understand those people either. Most of the time I wouldnt be able to tell the difference anyway, and even where I can it feels a bit over the top, 'lower' quality feels more natural to me. Interesting to hear from the opposite opinions though.
>>38635749Huh I'm an hrt enby too but I like the idea of st4t.
>>38635749>>38635811so youre both cis women got it. ok bye then
>>38635811I mean I’m just saying if I’m a boygirl and I look like it / have visibly ambiguous genitalia then by definition it is kind of impossible for me to be in a straight relationship. Also idk I don’t want to talk shit but I kinda feel like the st4t shit on this board feels performative for lack of a better term lmfao
>>38635843Interesting assuming that we are both afab when you have no proof. But yeah misogyny isn’t real and women do nothing but shop for shoes and fuck Chad all day, right?
Suicide, i think about it everyday and I cant stop. I think it has to do with my inability to find community outside of hivemind ecochambersI spend a lot of time reading about people surviving it and talking about things like how being “dead” was like a state of paralisys.
>>3863585699% of the time enby = woman
>>38635844>straight relationshipYeah I broaden the term a bit. I suppose I treat st4t and t4t the same, just looking at it more in terms of presentation than "genitalia"
>>38635898>inability to find community outside of hivemind ecochambersIts unfortunate the way modern society is theres no good places either online or in the real world, very often, especially with younger internet-riddled zoomers, people become very devoid and conscience-less. Its difficult to try and interact with them at all. >I spend a lot of time reading about people surviving itAnywhere specific, or just in general? Ive also been very interested in reading things like this from people whove felt similarly to myself, mostly just on old defunct forums however since there isnt spaces like that anymore. I wish there still were.
>>38632084I was diagnosed with it but I don't believe in it. >>38633951You should date me anonette
>>38636403How old are you anon?
>>38634580>tranner commune
hi gang im back whats up hows new st4tgen working out so far
>>38636922you'd like it, they're having conversations that are around your autism level
>>38636946WHAT but im not autistic i think im not sure i was never tested
>>38636965oh. you might wanna get that checked out
>>38634116i just turned 23, wbu anon
>>38632258>>38635768I want to watch old shoujo anime with you on vhs
Can someone post the pic of the boymoder in the blue “please be patient” hat please?
God I hate this fucking thread. Im so tired of these people with their fake "autism" shit. None of you know what real autism is. Fun fact: its not "haha i got silly quirk" shit. Real autism includes, but not limited to: Arm flapping, learning disabilities, motor disabilities, improper speech/nonverbal communications. >B-buh thats just down syndrome!!!!!!Nope, down syndrome is completely different.Stop this "OOOHHHH I LIKE [insert literally anything here] SO IM AUTISTIC HEHE" shit.
>>38637333Bitch, I am autistic, I do sometimes flap my arms, and with motor disabilities, I have that. I can't drive.I'm lucky that I live in Seattle where public transit is so good, and an Uber from Krogers is like $4.
>>38637333i'm ngl, i really struggle to understand how autism is supposed to be a spectrum that encompasses people who are basically vegetables and people who have some mild behavioral/learning challenges. the only people i knew who were autistic growing up were the ones who were severely impaired and i never met anyone who was functional and autistic. i just don't get how it can be the same thing. i get that people struggle with emotions or behavior or social situations and they need help, but is that really the same thing as someone who can barely eat on their own or has actual temper tantrums or can't learn past the level of like 5th grade?
>>38637559it's a lazy reclassification that combined aspergers and what most people consider typical autism, both are impairments but aspergers is now considered high functioning autistic, but the problems they face and regular autistic people face are very different
>>38637638i know they combined them. what i'm saying is when i try to look into why i never see any explanation besides "it's a spectrum" but i don't know why it's a spectrum. like is there some genetic marker or some brain pattern or anything that's being used to justify why they're the same? idk, i never found anything explaining it
>>38637333Nigga I *am* indeed severely autistic lmfao I have the mind of a 14 year old and I can’t drive or work or socialise >>38637425Lol same but “public transit” in Denver is an absolute joke, a 20 minute car ride somehow = 3 hours on transit.
>>38638276Are you on disability anon?
>>38632084>are you autistic iiiii most likely am, all of my autist friends have said that i have it so i assume i do >what are you autistically passionate about?Godzilla!!!! i love Godzilla so much
>>38632084PDDnos. Have fixated than cycled through mundane interests growing up, am i alone?
>>38638302It takes years and years to get approved and in America you are only allowed to have $2000 to your name at any given time or else you lose your benefits. You’re not allowed to save your money and it is designed to keep you homeless or on the fringe of it, not to help you get ahead. I’m trying to see if there’s maybe some kind of (remote only) job I can do but I kind of doubt it, so disability will be the shitty Plan B I guess. I don’t plan to be here for much longer anyway sooo XP
>>38632305>>38632349i think im gonna sleep soon, if you do still ever want someone to sperg out about pokemon with just add me, i still need someone to ramble about comic books to (also in dire need to be rambled to about the byzantine empire and obscure(?) ps2 games)i also made a livejournal with the same username, paichey if ud rather dm there than make a discordif not though that's okay, n i hope u find the pokeautist girl of ur dreams anon
>>38638472In freshman year my finance teacher told us that disability was something you got approved for, and then would get for the rest of your life no matter how much money you made or if you get better.I have no idea why he just lied so obviously like that.
>>38638489He is probably been brainwashed by Fox News propaganda or something, just like the niggaz who think people on food stamps live like kings (you get 300$ a month and that’s only if you’re lucky lmfao)
>>38636403>I was diagnosed with it but I don't believe in it.same. i was diagnosed at about 6 or 7. i've never seen myself as any different than anyone else, and the criteria for autism seems more like a personality type than anything else.
>>38638550Lol I guarantee you are indeed visibly different from others but you are, ironically, too autistic to notice it.
>>38638678being shy and disliking loud noises doesn't mean i have a disability anon
>>38638700Yep you’re definitely autistic. So by definition you have a disability, sorry bro
>>38638856>broi'm mtf...
>>38638929It’s just a word, I’m not calling you a man or anything
>>38638929bro how tf would anyone know that
>>38633224I thought it's the arch linux logo next to the artix one in the upper left corner for a secondAnyway, from the covers that I recognized that's quite a nice collection 7/10
