How about slightly below both but with some solid executive functioning and 0 mood disorders? I'll take that.

I mostly like the last paragraph about trauma just making you fucked up in the head.

Finally got Tunic. I'm pretty happy 6 h in!

Killing Eve. I got into so many artists only from the soundtrack.

All these details were present from only reading the title:

A very large and heavy marble that you'd need to pick up with both hands to hold. A man was already there keeping a hand on the marble, to prevent it from rolling on the wooden table. The table is simple, square and has 4 legs. I know what the marble would sound like if it were to roll, bumping over the little imperfections. This is happening indoors, but there's some natural light coming through. The table is relatively close to the edge of a room but you can still approach the table from all sides. The room is mostly undefined besides that. The man is not too detailed, I have a vague awareness of what he is like, but more like a gestalt of him.

After reading the prompt: The man rolled the ball with a soft push. It produced the expected sound and then he stopped it again before it fell. I felt anxiety when the ball rolled, and was relieved when it was stopped. I want to put it on soft cloth so that we can stop worrying about it rolling off the table. There's soft cloth nearby, and it's purple felt.

I have hyperfantasia.

Funny, seeing them at the top gave me a favorable impression of them, but seems to have caused the opposite for you. My impression was probably due to, like someone else said, feeling like maybe they're not being drilled with as much anti-union propaganda.

But I'm from a place where you have to go out of your way not to be part of a union.

A quick test for this is, are you good at making a good first impression or short time of friendship and then it kinda falls off with time? If yes, masking is likely in play.

Can confirm. This is my entire life.

I wanted to try that in my home town in the tropics but I observed that anything underground fills with water immediately and even overground structures end up suffering water damage that's very resistant to most measures I've seen.

Still wondering what's best for those kind of climates.

But like, a prism only reveals what was already inside that light beam.

So do I. This has more to do with being an terrifying entitled, out of touch billionaire. Who also happens to be autistic.

I'm not stating whether he considered it or not, but Brian May being good at one thing (physics) doesn't mean he's good at other things.

I agree, but I think I understand why I do it.

TL:DR Maladaptive behavior that is however ultimately harmless since I don't bother people.

I was a "gifted child"; was always like 2 school years ahead, started uni at 15 and every single person I met would praise me for being the youngest. I was immature so it got to my head. I also have always looked much younger than I am, which also invites comments. Finally, I also have AuDHD and I'm constantly anxious about not acting my age and being too immature. So I try to look at other people's ages to guide me in how I'm supposed to behave.

All of this is maladaptive and I've gotten a lot better with time, and I'm still working on it, but I'm not particularly bothered about the actual fact of having an interest in people's ages. I make sure I don't ask them about it or bother them about it, but many just offer this information on their own.
