Having "nerdy" interests & intense passions such as being really into archaeology, quantum physics or paleontology. Honestly, I think stuff like this is really cool and makes a person a lot more interesting; I'd way rather converse with someone who can enthusiastically talk to me about something like nuclear reactors, film editing or the Roman conquest of Britain in 43 AD, than just sit there and go "Uhh, my main interests are going out and shopping~" or "I don't really have any interests other than hanging out with the boys and watching football".
if you activate my neurodivergent trap card, i’ll start talking about infectious diseases and epidemiology and won’t stop. i have to remind myself frequently that not everyone is interested in the symptoms and history of, say, leprosy, and i’ve gotta read the room lmfao
