Let me introduce myself!
I'm a 32 year old transgender man, living in New Mexico.
I love video games, books, anime, and paleontology. Plus I'm really into true crime stories.
So basically I'll post mostly what I'm currently interested in and my existential dread.
#introduction
This sucks because I'm partially blind (all I see is grey fuzz) in my left eye, and have only 50% vision in my right on a good day. And have no side vision in either eye. I'm used to fuzz all the time, but I hate this kind of fuzz.
Talk about social anxiety, autism, and expectations
Don't get me wrong, I love my roommate. She nice, and not pushy. But she always thinks I'm mad at her because I'm in my room doing my own thing. I don't like being in the living room because the TV is WAY too loud (think turned up to 60 because she can't hear it), and she always has people over. So there's a mess of TV, people talking, dogs barking. I'm autistic with severe audio sensitivity so it physically hurts to have a lot of noise. I've told her this SOOO many times. I'm not mad, I'm just protecting myself. She knows I'm autistic, she knows I hate a lot of sound. But she's a bit of a scatter brain, and has social anxiety so she always thinks people are mad at her. Which makes me anxious because I don't want her to think I'M mad at her. Even though I don't pretend to be okay with someone, only to be mad at them. I don't understand those games.
Also, I'm not a big TV watcher. It bores me after a while unless its something I really want to watch. She likes to watch TV (or at least have it on) 24/7. I'm a quiet person who likes to work on my art, watch documentaries, read, or play computer games.
Just venting to be honest. Because her anxiety making her think I'm mad just for doing my own thing is making ME anxious. Like I'm doing something wrong. Ugh, well I'm not going to stop what I call fun because she gets stressed. That's not fair.

I'm an eccentric autistic trans guy that is also a mega nerd who is more interested in playing video games, houseplants, and reading then partying. He/Him
I play a lot of cozy games (Stardew Valley, Littletown, Cozy Grove, etc). And read way more sci fi then is healthy. Also a major houseplant enthusiast, and my dream is to someday live in a jungle inside my home. I do occasional art pieces when my ADHD allows.
