The kitties. They feast.

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

I remember watching 28 days later a long time ago and thinking it was ok, I just finished 28 weeks later and it was not ok.

Bought a coin yesterday, might have gotten scammed. After a three hour drive. Not the greatest feeling ever.

Paid 100 bucks for a genuine coin, but someone else (who's more experienced than I am) said he thought it was fake.
