| Battlefield 1. I'm playing just the Campaign (solo) stories right now. I'm not sure I have the reflexes, reaction time, and emotional wherewithal to get into the multiplayer side of things. Prior to this I got into: Banished - Fun and interesting for a few weeks. Factorio - This was bordering on add... |

| Yes, my sensory issues as well as other coping matter definitely are worsening with age. I understand that a university somewhere has *finally* initiated a study on the aging and autism. I am hopeful that some useful information will come from that. There is now precious little on adults with autism... |

| I have lived in a small flat for about the last 20 years. I have come to prefer it to the average-sized homes I once had. I enjoy the ease of cleaning, challenge of efficient space utilization, and no maintenance of yard, plumbing, roofing, gutters, and so on. Today when I visit those with more typi... |

Just the mention of those, or even seeing a picture of one, can bring that awful sound to mind. It is my third-most detested sound. The first two are fingernails-on-chalkboard and dentists' drills, in that order. |

It was a class... |
