Possibly my old hometown however, I doubt I would be able to remember how to get to places

Do you think Autism Speaks has become more or less a problem to autistic advocacy overall?

I think it has been a problem. Maybe it's less of a problem than it used to be, I don't know.

Same question.

I don't know much about Autism Speaks. If it's true what they say, that Autism Speaks views autism as some kind of death sentence, then I'm against them.

Will you be taking part in any of the anti-Trump marches?

Only if there is also baton twirling involved.
(A Trump march here would be a very solitary affair)

Is there a humanitarian cause you feel strongly about?

I feel strongly about the rights of autistics and other disabled people.

Same question.

Women's rights, LGBT rights, and the rights of the disabled.

Same question.

Human Rights in general. To be more specific, the right to live and choose freely.


Do you have any broken(unfixed, unpatched, defected, seriously buggy) instruments or gadgets that you still use?

Yes.

My laptop's "w" key sticks (yes, I have tried cleaning it); it either types no w's or an entire string of them. I'm pretty sure I have used it too much whilst gaming. :P

In the event of an apocalypse, what ailment/weakness do you think would lead to your demise or death?

The inability to get myself out of danger via motor vehicle for, since I've not driven in 8yrs now.


Do you think Alien life has to conform to the notion that it should be human or humanoid in appearance or form?

I think that scientists are severely limiting themselves by only searching for humanoid or human/animal-like life.
same question

Personally, I don't think alien life as a whole has to be of a human like nature, after all plants & trees are living beings, though we don't see them as such for we're not able to notice any communication but, I'm sure there is in some way.



Do you think there is actual hesitation & apprehension from companies hiring autistic persons?

Autism is a broad spectrum. The reason I say that is because quite a few autistics are already employed. Just look towards the tech and science industry. They flood the place. If you're referring to lower functioning autistics, then yeah, the apprehension does exist. I mean, everyone has to be taken for their individual strengths and weaknesses, but I would say autism is not necessarily a barrier to employment; may actually be a benefit, really.

Are you good looking enough to be a model for The Gap?

Maybe? I have too many pimples. And I don't want to be a model.

Same question.

Deadlines and the fear of failure.

Same question.
