1. What is your favourite television show from the 80′s? hmmm idk.. I watched episodes of The A-Team and Knightrider and The Dukes of Hazard when they were airing reruns of those shows in the 90s (so when I was a child) and I enjoyed them, but I haven’t actually rewatched those shows very recently (only the say uncle affair from the a-team).. I’m watching star trek tng with my mom atm, which started in the late 80′s, but since the later seasons were aired in the 90′s idk if it counts as an “80′s show”.. also this is my first time watching it, and so far I still prefer TOS myself.. so idk if I could actually pick one of these shows as my “favourite”.. I’m more into 60′s shows and things from 90′s/2000′s

2. Favourite television show from the early 2000′s? probably the original CSI, I actually watched it as it was airing and recently rewatched everything as well and I still like (most of) it :)..

otoh if EVERYTHING that aired between 2000 and 2010 counts for this question (I thought at first just up to 2005 or something bc of the word “early”) that would make it more difficult to pick.. in that case the early seasons of Psych would also count, which is a show I recently started watching and am LOVING so far.. and even the first 2 seasons of Fringe happened before/in 2010.. also I was way into Heroes for a while in HS.. oh and also the first 2 seasons of Slings and Arrows (the 3rd one is also pre 2010 I just liked it significantly less lol) and also Medium.. AND PUSHING DAISIES how did I almost forget mentioning that one..

3. Favourite television show from the 2010′s +? The second half of Fringe :’)? maybe also the second half of Psych, but I haven’t gotten that far yet.. as for things that started airing after 2010.. B99 was fun (haven’t seen s7 yet though).. The good place was great but also made me cry at the end.. other than that, I mostly watched new shows casually whenever they aired on dutch tv.. and spent the rest of the past decade watching/rewatching and obsessing over older shows (due south, star trek TOS, mfu, etc etc).. OH- wait.. also Shattered with CKR is from 2010.. so that one kinda counts.. but it was only 1 season and didn’t get proper closure at the end :\

8. Favourite television soundtrack? probably due South? I actually have a whole bunch of songs I listen to only because it was in the due south OST.. also kind of the CSI soundtrack..

Thank you! 🙋🏽‍♀️

4. Last time I cried and why:

Two weeks ago, after work. Sh*t happened.

6. Favourite Band(s)

The Monkees, Pink Floyd, and 14 Bis. I could mention a lot more, but to begin some ASMR this is purr-fect.

12. Perfect Date

Any opportunity to talk about animes and music, and eat lots of chocolate together!

16. Favourite Movie

Let me quote the noble, amazing The Lion King. It's a classic. Old but gold.

oh no, it’s the Master, beware

it really is bizarre. like, most drilling I had in my house was an hour tops

omg, I lived in this situation for months. I’m really sorry, it’s awful

It’s been nearly four years. They have been drilling almost every weekend. And during the holidays. Any day I was home from work, drilling. At this point, I am honestly wondering if they have any walls left. What the hell are they doing?

I legit hate this movie, like, it takes a story that’s super interesting and fun to see unfold and makes it into a bleh. there are so many better adaptations…

They even let him keep his arm! What’s Jane Eyre without a little dismemberment?!

5. Crunchy or gummy foods? 

I think probably gummy, I’m more into candy than potato chips usually for example.. I’m not much into food making sounds in my mouth (otoh I also bite on hard candies instead of letting them melt like a normal person so idk, maybe it’s just that I’m more into sweet things than salty/savoury)

7. What’s your morning routine? 

tbh... atm it’s usually after my first alarm goes off (I set 2 about 30 minutes or more apart) I usually check things on my phone, and I try to get those things done before the second alarm goes off which is when I’d *like* to get out of bed, but usually I end up snoozing the second alarm 34567 times and stay in bed waaaay too long (sometimes because I’m still on my phone and sometimes because I just keep falling back asleep).. my morning “routine” is.. pretty bad atm..

10. What do you like about being autistic?

sometimes it’s hard to differentiate which parts of my personality/traits are because of my autism and which are because of adhd, but... I like how intensely I can enjoy and emerge myself into my special interests, like.. sometimes it’s not very convenient that I have so little control about what I’m into at which time (so when I was in college I ended up getting completely side-tracked) but it’s really nice to be able to like things this intensely.. like, my entire room is one big homage to all of the things I like, every direction I look there’s something that makes me happy :))))

14. What are your favorite stims?
