Henlo!

I frequently find myself searching for information about autism and how to navigate its impact on my life. I was bored at work--Googling something about being an autistic individual in an office setting, when I stumbled upon this forum! I can't believe I never saw this page before! ʕ ˵• ₒ •˵ ʔ

My partner (also ND) and I often describe ourselves as creatures, or robots from a different planet, so Wrong Planet really struck home for me.

Anyways, I figured I would pop in and say henlo! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔﾉ♡ I would love to hear your spooky/romance/fantasy book recommendations, or some animal factoids in the comments!

Welcome to WP :D

If you ever want advice in an office setting, I'll be more than happy to chat with you about that.

Thank you! That is much appreciated. It's pretty rough out there trying to exist in an office ʕ´•ᴥ•`ʔ. I just want to make my moneyz and go home! Our office constantly has parties and social gatherings that are an introvert's nightmare.

I will probably make a post in one of the school/work discussion boards, so I'll most likely see you in there sometime ^w^

Thank you ʕ￫ᴥ￩ʔ!! Yes she is! I typically do my own digital art for her, but I had this pfp commissioned!

OMG I did not know that they have 5 eyes! That's 3 more than me.

Did you know that bees can create toxic honey from rhododendron plants? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grayanoto ... n%20humans.

It's still creamy goodness and that's all the excuse they need. :nerdy:

I don't get why Lulu likes bananas though.

Welcome to WP! I hope you like it here.

I agree, the name "Wrong Planet" is wonderful. My bride found WP and told me about it and the name immediately made sense to me.

I would've gone with "Twilight Zone" but I'm old enough to have watched it when Rod Serling hosted. Plus, there could be intellectual property issues using that name.

Hmmm...spooky/romance/fantasy book recommendations...not my genre but here:

<=>The Exorcist is incredibly good...I think it is markedly better than The Exorcist

Welcome to Wrong Planet!
As for animal factoids, hmmmm... owls have one ear higher than the other, which allows them to better hear exactly where a sound is coming from.
Also, snakes don't have ears at all, but they "hear" by feeling vibrations in the ground.
I guess I'm obsessed with ears.

Great recommendation! Thank you for the warm welcome. I will definitely be reading that book, because I have always been intrigued by that story! :cat:
