This is me and Lemmy right now lol.
S/O also is autistic as I am & has limited me to 5 minutes a day on this conversation 😅
Literally me. Had to interview someone for a school project relating to religion a couple years back, so as a non-religious person I interviewed Richard Stallman. Ever since I’ve been using free software for pretty much everything. It has become such an obsession that I’ve gotten work due to it and I’ve forced even a government authority to change their ToS to not violate GPLv3.
Me rn with bikes. I just got into bikes and a couple days later I’m scouring through my county’s website for trail maps, looking at what public transit is being funded, doing research on bikes, planning locations to bike to, and buying equipment.
This is soooo relatable… My most recent obsessions were tornados and caving. Spent so much time learning all the lingo, I even located a local caving club I swore I was going to join. And then poof, my interest shifted to something else! Haha
Currently in the process of trying to befriend a chipmunk. Today friend chipmunk was comfortable enough to eat with me outside.
It was the best.
This one is not socialized at all. I got yelled at (squeaked?) with all the adorable fury the first time I tried to stay outside for feeding, so tiny progress makes me so happy!
