| I absolutely feel less mature than others my own age. I don't really know any other 20-somethings who still don't drive, still love animated movies and get excited about them the way a young child would, and carry a bag full of small plushies and stim toys with them in order to just feel okay with l... |

| I also carry around an assortment of items. Mostly they're small stuffed animals and stim toys like Tangle toys or fidgets. I also have a chewable pendant I like to wear just so I have something to chew on. I also have a die cast car named Susie and a Calico Critters cat that a therapist gave me - I... |

| Is anyone interested in seeing Dreamworks' "Home?" I saw it last weekend, and I LOVED it!! I thought it was adorable, and very touching. The basic plot is that a race of aliens called "The Boov" decide to colonize Earth in order to hide from their enemies, and relocate all the hu... |

| I don't exactly relate to raccoons, but I do think they're kind of cute. :) You just don't want to approach them or try to pet them if you see them in the wild, especially if they have their babies with them. I was at a yard sale once, and I bought this cute porcelain sculpture of two baby raccoons ... |

It's not that I forget how to talk when I'm very emotional, I just prefer not to talk when I'm very emotional because I am afraid that talking will make me more vulnerable to crying or going into a meltdown.  |

| Those do sound like very troubling thoughts, Joe90...and it is good to be very cautious when you're out walking alone, especially at night. But, as the others have said, I think people being beheaded is a somewhat rare occurrence. However, it might help you feel better if you carried something with ... |

| The other sites I've been to are Asperclick and AspiesCentral. They're pretty good. Asperclick is maintained by Willow Marsden, the young woman who has made many videos on Youtube explaining AS, and her husband. |

Oh, that's simply awful.  Has his website been brought before law enforcement yet? They could arrest him based on that, if they haven't seen it already. |

I LOVE Stimtastic.com! The owner and operator is Cynthia Kim of the MusingsOfAnAspie blog.
As for stim and fidget toys, I like Tangles, Klixx (or "Wacky Tracks") as they're sometimes called, and I also have a few stones I like to hold and manipulate. |
