    I infodump a ton. Part of that is to create conversation. I’m so alone. Another part is almost compulsion, where I feel like I have to tell someone about some dumb shit I found somewhere. Like some weird shit I found in the thrift store I volunteer at sometimes. Or some dumb meme I found on here (like a damn grandma lol). Doesn’t get a response sometimes, just because nobody cares. That sucks, but I get over it. So yeah, probably pretty common for those with ADHD, autism, or both.

      This is my favorite named behavior: penguin pebbling. Just showing people neat things because you like them/it. My partner and I often bond over random crap we see on the Internet
