Ok reintroduction time I guess.

I am a 42 year old Scottish woman. I did my degree in and attempted a PhD in before stuff happened and anyway now I'm back at university studying .

I like but I am bad at it and I try to impress people by saying I speak five but between you and me I'm bad at them, too.

I'm into as my avatar probably indicates, FF in general, really, and I think is real I mean good. That'll do I think. What else do you need to know?

Welcome. The autistic community is quite lively on here. As long as you don't mind that a lot of us are as old as fuck and self-realised (my preferred term) because of it. 😀 You can follow hashtags here to access the things you're interested in and there are many groups, such as @actuallyautistic Although these just act as boosters for your posts and following it can lead to overwhelming your timeline. And talking about your timeline. This place is all about engagement. Talking and interacting. There's no algorithm, as such, to drive things, it's all about curating your timeline by who you follow.
