i dont think im into anything nerdy, per se. my interests are definitely fringe, but i wouldnt call them typical nerd things. i sculpt out of clay, i make subversive abstract art, ive been getting really into duct tape and making "paintings" out of it (its more sculpting than painting tbdesu), i write purple prose, I like to have fun playing with my OCs like dolls. i do also make actual dolls, i make a "skeleton" out of tinfoil and wire and then layer small pieces of ductape ontop of it, forming fake doll flesh. i use different colors of ductape for hair/skin/clothes. im into religion and researching scriptures, lately im most interested in Zoroastrianism. i like researching psychiatry related topics and im highly interested in the pathology of mental illness. i also make collages out of trash (theres more that im forgetting or leaving out on purpose because reasons)

its why the claims that afabs are not "sentient" or have no hobbies seem so weird to me, i think im more sentient than the majority of human race, usually when i ask other people what their hobbies are they sam sum dumb shit npc that barely counts as a hobby, a la "i like watching movies/tv shows", or they start listing off music that they like. neither of those are hobbies, consuming entertainment is not a hobby.
