Do you have any autistic hobbies...

That's cool and cute man!

I collect pictures of pepe, wojak, and apu. I also started collecting Jow Forums headers. I play melee semi-competitively as well, which requires some degree of autism. It's not really a hobby, but I spend a lot of time pacing around my house thinking to myself. I go for really long walks outside as well, but lately the weather hasn't been great for walking outside.

I miss /nightwalks/ It's gotten too dangerous to do that these days

I live in a relatively small town, so it's pretty safe. I usually walk in the evening, but I mistime my walks most of the time and end up getting back home past sundown a lot.

nice. more sissies for me to fuck

I write fake complaints to companies offering adult products, ie porn websites, sex toy makers etc, then never respond when they ask for more details and make further complaints about the same thing or different thing under different names. for example i once complained to pornhub in 3 page letter that they redirected me to a website owned by ISIS then sent this same complaint over and over Pic is an example from today, I emailed the PVRMALL company that puts those VR porn adverts on the bottom of the page. I really just like doing it because I hope to make their customer service teams have some interesting customers. I have no friends in real life and nobody laughs at my jokes so i like the idea of these people laughing even if they don't

does maladaptive daydreaming count?

i stare at my hands a few times a day.
sometimes it feels like i'm always on airplane mode, and when i look at my hands, i feel like i'm in control again.

wake up, masturbate to random muscular waifu/gore/extreme hentai/feet, play fucking gta san andreas competitively, go to sleep at 4 a.m.,
Repeat.

extremely boring shit like tracking my finances and credit score

this is actually super unique and pretty amazing user

Speedrunning, nobody I know does it and people who do it online are autistic af.
I just want non autistic friends who are into it but thats near impossible.

Speedrunning is peak autism though. I enjoy watching runs of some games but I'd never be able to spend time on it.

I like to listen to music, rock back-and-forth and make up stories for the OCs in my favorite anime universes.

i usually spend hours a day debating people, usually facebook debate groups (on a sock account)

debating is basically my main hobby

>fapping to hentai
>searching to the ends of the internet for the the source of some hentai pages, never giving up and sometimes finding the source months later
> learning japanese for the sole purpose of understanding untranslated hentai
> editing hentai and anime scenes until the perfect fapping material is born
>organizing my hentai folder into categories, subcategories and subsubcategories.
> calculating the exact number of calories i eat based on different macros, now I manage to eat a well balanced diet under 15$ a week, shopping once a week and not freezing anything
>planning university assingments months in advance e.g. writing a lab report before the lab happens, the text writing the code required to analyze the data in advance, then submitting it the next day after the lab
> do /nightwalks/

Yeah, all of my hobbies are purely autistic. I have strong love/hate relationship with them. I rarely speak about them and I make clear line between them and my top layer personality.
The hobbies are:
Old radios - namely 1950' and older. I like to repair them, enjoy a few hours of listening to it, get bored, sell it, buy another one, spend time repairing it and so on. I used to collect them as a kid, but my father took the collection, when I was in the process of leaving him (or rather unning away from him). I can't even keep a shelf full of those beauties, the memories of my childhood are way too strong still 10 years after. This same thing goes through all my other hobbies.
Minerals native to the mountain range, where I used to live. Mostly quartz - my absolute favorite. I pack my camping stuff, short pickaxe, trench shovel and a bucket and disappear for a weekend. At the location I spend two or three days digging bitch ass huge hole in the middle of a corn field and looking for clay pockets with possible crystals in them. I usually keep like one or two from each weekend and even those I give away. I have one of each uranium mineral from the same range, but I don't even showcase them. I can't and I can't throw them away.
I used to collect badges from my hometown and historic coins from all eras, but those too ended with my childhood. I absolutely loved them - especially those badges, but my father used it all against me. Now all I have are fragments of old autistic attachments, which I can't get rid of, but I can't start the collection again. None of it. I feel anxiety spiking up just as I type this. I wish I could just delete my first 14 years of life and start again. I would build crazy beautiful collection of minerals. I have the most insane luck when finding them since the first time I could pick up a pickaxe.
I used to fill the gap in me by obsessively playing WoW and later LoL, but with progressing age I grew out of them. Now I long for a purpose.

I shave with and collect safety razors, mostly Gillettes.

I used to partially idle X3:Terran Conflict. After I reached the point where I had multiple automated traders, I'd just read while checking every 15-30 minutes to make sure things were going smoothly. When my money reached a certain point I'd spend it on setting up a few industries in strategic locations. Selling small shields, light guns, and other ship equipment that stacks big and is usually at only 10% stock to all nearby shipyards makes shitloads of money.
Autistically calculating nutrients is good. It's very easy to miss out on getting the optimal amount of certain micronutrients if you don't pay attention and aren't a rich person with a crazy diverse diet.
This made me sad. Special interests are a need, or at least an addiction for autists. Once you've felt the intense passion for a special interest, normal interests barely even register as enjoyable.

playing vanilla dwarf fortress and DCSS in all their ASCII glory are definitely the two biggest autistic things i do and would never be able to explain.

Yeah, I've been doing jiu jitsu since January and I'm fucking addicted. I've logged four hundred hours or so of mat time and recently I've been tapping higher level belts (blues and the rare purple) pretty consistently. My parents don't quite get it but they're really happy I've found something I can put my all into.

I make goofy short videos on youtube
2 years ago I made a used-car cat salesman video that went viral.
I'm due to get back into it, I've barely made any videos since. I hope I get some new stuff out in 2019.
Merry Christmas all!

>make index cards with information about drugs (not illegal ones)
>read and take notes on things related to drugs in my freetime

>collect those shitty ryan gosling blade runner memes, because they embody how i feel.
>read manga, but only one and i've become so attached to one of the characters that much of my thoughts throughout the day involve them and being with them intimately almost to the point of obsession.
>like to dress nicely and in a dignified manner, not anything super out of the ordinary, my usual town outfit is nice leather dress shoes, black slim-fit dress pants, white longsleeve dress shirt, and a black short peacoat, buttoned once in the middle. no hats.
>have an insurmountable amount of knowledge of analogue electronics, mostly about sound equipment and synthesizers and am basically an amateur electrical engineer.
>listen to a wide and strange variety of music.
>speak very formally with a wide vocabulary normally, but adjust the way i speak with my environment.
>write a bunch of poetry all the time, most people who read it including 2 english professors think it to be very well written and with good content and meaning.
>rip the flesh off of my fingertips with my teeth and consume it, i've done this for 7 years now as a form of research into what happens to the human body after repeated consumption of one's own flesh as well as the flesh surrounding the fingertips being exposed to constant damage, findings have been inconsistent but nonetheless interesting.
>purposely exposed myself to strange types of pornography from the age of about 13, in order to see just how far the concepts of human sexual attraction can be stretched, effectively morphing myself into a full-time teratophiliac.
>i like shitty 80's movies.

Despite all this, people generally like me and wish to associate with me simply because i'm not half-bad looking and i spent years developing a charming personality, mostly for personal gain. I have a wide circle of friends whom I care about greatly and am on good terms with my family. No gf tho

I know right? We get surges of dopamine comparable only to sex or massive life accomplishment from these fucking hobbies, or more precisely collections.
I think I need to find a good therapist sooner or later. This shit is unbearable. I'm high functioning as fuck. It took me a full life phase to collect myself and stitch together a personality. I was lucky to run away at 13, switch primary school, become bullied looser again, but hit back and turn into sparkling class comedian, party animal and teacher's favorite at the same time at highschool in another city and another life phase. Managed to keep the burnout away until college. Now I just want my fucking rocks back. But the first 13 years of my life - those years, which lay foundations to every functioning personality are just one massive mistake. The hobbies were my escape, but ripping them away from me at that point was the worst thing that could happen. It's hard to describe, but every time I start to put something together I get strong (crippling almost) flashbacks to the childhood I tried so hard to forget. I now realize I didn't even tell anyone. Not even my mom. Nobody. This is the first time I put this one out. This could be a good new years resolution to find some help and make me whole again.

Guys one very important thing. Never start a family with sociopath. Never. They will break you. It's their purpose in life. Like we have our hobbies, they bend their close ones to their will, until they either give in or break. Like my poor mother. But most importantly your children will become either sociopaths or mental wrecks. Sociopaths are not humans. They are the most pure form of evil inside human shell. I wish ASPD could be detected in unborns and resulted in termination of pregnancy. It sounds harsh under this crybaby post, but you would feel me if you were born to a family with ASPD father.

I collect botte caps. I have thousands of bottle caps.

Since i didnt use to have friends when i was younger, I used to create yugioh decks, each with their own them (water, fire, rock, dark, etc)out of the random shit in my collection and would have tournaments in which i would play both decks and do single elimination until only one remained
A cute girl in my pre algebra class back in middle school found my lp counter one time(just the last pages in my notebook), which had multiple fake names attributed to each deck and i felt super embarrassed/autistic

thinking fallout will become irl after ww3?

Sorry for my late reply, got really into Starsector. You definitely should see a therapist, it's pretty severe if you can't do anything related to your childhood. My online friend actually has ASPD, but he's benign. He abuses drugs, rarely opens up to people, and is somewhat paranoid. I think there might be an abusiveness spectrum, where ones with higher narcissistic/borderline tendencies are more abusive. I haven't met enough sociopaths or read enough case studies to say anything for sure, but from what I've read, the abusive sociopaths you always hear about seem very megalomaniacal.

>when
I'm sorry, user.

The only thing she could type fast was "LOVE U". She had that down through rote practice.
Thanks. It only hurts a little. She probably taught the code to her new boyfriend, not telling him where she learned it and they probably tap "LOVE U" to each other all the time now.

i guess anything isnce I'm actually autismo

Did you fugg her in morse code?

That's really sweet. I think one of the parts of having a BF or GF that's really underrated is introducing them to your niche interests and hobbies, and slowly watching them grow and progress.

user please post more porno trolls this is great

How do you get an autistic hobby?
I roleplay, but not with dnd or anything like that. It also means that I write a lot, but none of it turns out good.

Attached: CA525918-96B5-4AD2-BDBB-CAD2074AF664.gif (422x392, 738K)

What do you roleplay? You just have to keep looking, autistic hobbies are born into you and awaken later in life, if you have one dormant inside you it'll turn on when you find the right hobby.

I would tap out "QRD" ("Destination" in Radiospeak) on her ass with my dick sometimes before going in. She knew some of the Q-codes from hanging out with me at my radio station (she never got licensed).
Shit happens. I miss her, life goes on.
She was blown away by radio communications in the sense that I could talk all over the world in the correct conditions without the Internet. Sometimes, we'd just be drinking at my station and I'd tune around until I found some strange Shortwave broadcast (like Radio China in Romanian) and listen for a bit. But we both loved Brother Stair before he was arrested.

There's a new broadcaster, John P. Lightning, who is a batshit insane conspiritard who broadcasts every other Sunday on 5.130 MHz AM (WBCQ) who is in violation of just about every FCC rule I know she would have loved to listened to.

SciFi. I used to play an Starcraft 2 mod that allowed you to roleplay, eventually that went out of favor and I got invited to something else with prominent people in the community. I have spent my entire pre adult and adult life sperging out with my soft science fiction monstrosities
I hope I have one. Videogames are not cutting it in my life anymore, and Im no good at any of the other hobbies I have.

It indeed is. It's almost a cliche created by popular media. Like this cool ass sociopath villain. My reality was different and it took me lots of research and even one case of broken physician/patient confidentiality to dig out the truth. The old retired doctor was actually holding tears, when she told me how my papa threatened her and her family, when she was ordered by a court to examine him. Motherfucker had aside from sheer violence some nasty crap on her or her relatives (couldn't tell me more) from his short time with state security service back in commie era. It sounds so fucking ridiculous, I thought I was in a bad movie. Full on head spinning dissociation for a couple of hours. But shit was real and there were these breadcrumbs of scared people all around. Nobody could do anything.

School counsellor said I was on high functioning autistic spectrum. I was extremely obsessive with my hobbies, they made me escape the reality. My social skills were based on this overly affectionate mask desperately trying to live in between constant abuse at home and bullying in school. Lying about everything being fine at home. Lying to myself even. All fake.
Now the biggest fear. The cherry on top. Self analysis. Years of it. With diaries. I might be on ASPD spectrum myself. My conscience is questionable at best. I am the centre of my universe - I bet you can see it from my syntax even. Me me me. I caught myself manipulating with people. Gaslighting closest friends in a way they didn't even realize until we split ways. I need a common toppic and few beers with a person to put on irresistible personality, which turns into their best friend in matter of months, until I get bored. I'm afraid it all clicks way too well, the new therapist will find out, tell me and I'll kill myself on that very day, because I'll become my father - the very thing I want to erase from my life.

That's the last of these rants. Feels fucking good to put it in words on anonymous media.

when i was working in greece (being spanish) one of my trainers was a married guy who take the oportunity of being away from his wife in another country to play df and spoke with me a lot about his game cos i was the only one able to understand him

I was thinking about getting into amateur radio, but I have no idea how to start. I think I might have talk to you about it, as I remember talking to some dude here about how to get started in ham radio.

I am autistic about local politics

I go to Republican Central Comitee meetings, where people lay out the plans for the next month. I am running for office for my county Young Republicans meeting

That might not be ASPD, or it might be subclinical ASPD mixed with autism. Autistics can be self-centered, our deficient empathy can make other people seem like talking objects, NPCs, bodies with no person inside. Some autistics never grow out of it, or only partially grow out of it. It's solipsism, it can progress into narcissism if left unchecked. Autistics can also mask, it's more common with women than men. They learn socialization as a very rigid list of rules and use them in every interaction. All of that combined with an abusive father could mimic ASPD without being as difficult to treat.

Railfanning

ARRL.org is a good place to start. The Technician-class license is super easy. The test is 35 questions and you only need to get 26 correct. The pool is only 424 questions. I memorized the correct answers in a week.

aa9pw.com/cgi-bin/exam2011.cgi

General is a bit harder. 426 question pool but still only need 26 out of 35. This is the level that lets you communicate globally.

aa9pw.com/cgi-bin/exam2011.cgi

Study for both, go to an exam and pay your $15 and if you pass Tech, you can take General for free right after. Pass that, and you will be able to talk around the world, send TV images and talk to the Space Station.

That's helpful, but where and how do I get a radio?

I partially wish we could talk about this some more, you seem like well educated person on this topic. I wish I actually considered myself to be the only real being and it was an option for a time, but I left it out as imposed upon me by myself based on one side character from a book. I identified with him and his thought processing (altough not consciously at the time), just because I found him interesting enough.

I can't go any further tough. You're not a free of charge therapist and I don't want to bother you with any more of this self centered garbage about random batshit crazy user. You might have given me one more reason to shed my ultimate terror and actually seek some help. Thank you.

Semi-regularly sorting, maintaining and updating a porn wallpaper gallery (both 2d and 3d). I even try to upgrade the images themselves by means of waifu2x and currently trying out deepcreampy.

I'd hardly consider myself well educated, I just read a few books on the topic as a passing special interest. I didn't feel bothered by it at all, first interesting conversation I've had on Jow Forums in ages. I'm glad I could help you, hopefully you find a good therapist.

Amazon, Craigslist, QRZ.com, GigaParts. I happened to have an IC-7851 but a used Kenwood TS-590 or TS-590SG is an excellent radio to start with for HF Comms.

A Baofeng UV-5RV2+ will get you on the air in UFH and VHF for $40 but will only work in a area of 50-100 miles.

Kenwood, Yeasu, and ICOM are the "Big Three" of radios and never a bad option.

Alright. Thank you, user. I think I'll look into it as a hobby.

It can be boring and it can be fun. All the old timers just sit around talking about the weather and what they had for lunch. The younger/funner hams are doing packets/data/digital modes these days. Also look into getting a cheap "Software Defined Radio" which is a dongle for your computer that can listen (but not transmit) to the entire radio spectrum. You can intercept real time NOAA weather sat images, listen to the ham bands, and intercept and decode police radios (with the correct software and it's NOT illegal to do so).

>She probably taught the code to her new boyfriend, not telling him where she learned it and they probably tap "LOVE U" to each other all the time now.
Fucking (hypothetical) whore!!!

im exactly like you, i sort of try to mold my personality into who i wanna be

Do you play out House of Cards 4th wall breaking asides in your head when you're out politicking?

that sounds pretty cool. I'll look for one. The police part sounds really interesting. What are some of the coolest or most interesting things you've heard over your radio?

One time, somebody on an E-4B Nightwatch (USAF Nuclear Forces Airborne Command Post/Pentagon back-up) left their microphone on and I could here all the people around going through a practice nuclear strike drill on Russia where they launched all the Minuteman missiles under the "authority" of the Vice President.

Reverse engineering old video games

Throughout childhood I'd imagine space battles using what was around me as giant set pieces on a massive planet, imagined a huge war between two races over a massive planet. The "whos" fought against the evil "lice" (I was 7 when i came up with these names). The school was the huge louse fortress, bigger than a mountain range. I had characters, the main ones being Peter and his wife Emily, until they died in the "final battle" of middle school and their son Orion became main character. He ended up sacrificing himself in battle to reverse a superweapon to destroy billions of enemy troops. Then i missed him cause his children werent as good of characters so i resurrected hin with ancient tech, which ruined the story and made imagining it feel funny after that. Like I'd turned on cheat codes in a game to get past a level. So now I don't imagine it much anymore. Which sucks cause I drew hundreds of shitty drawings and wrote over 500 pages of the story i have been imagining for 17 years now. But anyway it's pretty autistic and I've never told anyone IRL about it.

That sounds pretty interesting. It's things like that that make me want to do ham radio- weird stories that one would otherwise miss out on without a radio. Things that maybe no one else on earth will ever notice but you.
