It don't always be how it do, but this do how it be.

See this is actually an amazing metaphor. Because just like with socialisation, I broadly know the basic rules of what each piece does. But that is absolutely not the same thing as actually knowing how to play chess.

I have a vague grasp of many of the fundamentals, nothing more.

I'm more of a "do you think if I concentrated real hard I could make myself blink out of existence?" kinda girl myself :p

The heavens rumble with the anger of the gods, the sky is not obnoxiously bright and chipper, the rain patters on the roof calmingly. Exquisite.

I for one really enjoyed the Year of Mandated Introversion

I have no idea why anyone would ever think "hey you don't match my negative stereotypes about x" would be an ok and sensible thing to say, really with regards to anything, not just autism, sexuality etc.

...I think if I lived in a previous era I would be described as a hermit.

I've never listened to Italian trap music but your comment made me laugh. You've got me curious: why is Italian trap music specifically is so terrible?

¿Por qué no los dos?

I have three music apps on my tablet personally. One is Spotify, one is Mucke (a nice little app on Fdroid), and one is Vanilla Music.

I use Mucke pretty much exclusively for a band I have an autistic special interest in, both because for me they're kind of their own stuff, and the majority of their vast catalogue is not on streaming apps. Vanilla Music I use for most everything else I have in local files.

I use Spotify first, to support the artists a little, and to discover new music. Local files if it's not on streaming.
