Do you have any non-political/non-religious/ things about yourself that you're less afraid to share online than IRL? (sh.itjust.works)

ASMR. Not afraid so much, just don't want to be annoyed by the predictable responses from the skeptics and "comedians". And ASMR is old news. People have mostly moved on. But I'm still very grateful for the AMSR performance artists and fellow aficionados out there.

I get this completely. I'll never bring it up because it just sounds weird to someone who doesn't experience it themselves. I'll be forever chasing that feeling of being done taking a test in a classroom and hearing nothing but scratching pencils in an otherwise silent room.

It also doesn't help that a sizable portion of the ASMR content creators use it as an avenue to dress provacatively on camera or insert overtly sexual undertones to poorly done ASMR. I feel like these are the videos people think of though when you mention it.

Yes. And I understand how weird and silly it must all look to people who don't have it. But it gets tedious quickly.
