- #mapping #worldbuilding #maps #tutorial #maps Every Map Tutorial starts with a trip to the stationery store, and advice on the best pens, paper, pencils. As a student, I have a budget of $50, can I stay within my budget? Whether you are world-building, creating a street directory or a city sketch, it all starts with stationery and this video provides simple advice that motivation to start your first map-book. Good research and motivation also starts with exploring other maps to inspire you.

![[LIVE] : ONE ลุมพินี 65 วันนี้!! คู่เอก "จ้าวเสือใหญ่ vs ผึ้งหลวง"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/TDpOh5eEJKw/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm similar I find shops difficult because of noise and pressure to talk to people. In terms of street directories I have a collection of local and national ones for my country including one of my city from 1953 (passed down from my grandparents) which I absolutely love looking through!
Oh 1953, wow. Which country? Imagine how the paper and ink would feel and look
@cityplannermismanages England! The Ordinance Survey maps (national mapping agency) have existed since 1801. The one I have from 1953 is a bit ripped and worn since it's been used a lot, but the old paper and font styles it uses are really cool to see. I love seeing how the area has developed over time since the map was made.
I know it isn't as old, but I have a 1999 directory of my city. I absolutely LOVE looking through it, and comparing everything to my 2025 directory! That's soooo cool that you have a directory from '56! The city I live in would have almost been a paddock of sheep!
@axlr. Yes I love comparing it to recent ones to see how things have changed/development!
I remember when I was younger I had an interesting obsession with trying to find the locations of fictional shows or movies as if they were real places using various environmental clues. Whenever a map was shown I would go onto Google maps and search for any sort of similarity that would match up (the Goiky canal isn't a canal, it's the strait of Gibraltar!) but most of the time it wouldn't really match the setting. I felt like I was a detective solving some sort of mystery even if I didn't make much progress, lol. On the other hand, this exercise did improve my geography knowledge a great degree!
Also, props for using Duolingo sounds lol
Lmao, first to notice the duolingo. I love how u increased Ur geography knowledge through fictional geography hunting
As a person on the spectrum, I’ve gotten really used to shopping. I view it on the same level as going to the dentist or getting a flu shot. It’s uncomfortable, but it’s necessary. Luckily, I live in a part of America where it’s uncommon for a cashier to make small talk with you as they scan your stuff. A simple “thank you” is the only thing you need to say to them, and you’re on your way.
Sounds like bliss 😅
Yep, I can absolutely relate. I hate shops. Too many people, too much noise (including the dreaded 'background music'), too bright lights. Praise a deity of choice for online shopping!
I often get overwhelmed by the items on the shelves, and get distressed when I can't find what I'm searching for, even if it's in front of my eyes. I also like to use Google Maps to pick a time when there's not a lot of people, and I use the machine checkout whenever possible.
My first memory of a street directory was when I was six years old and got a street directory as a present. I looked at that thing for hours, and it's what kick-started my love for street directories. It really was the perfect present. I was however already into mapping. I remember going to my grand-parents house every day after pre-school and kindergarten. My pop had these MASSIVE A1 sheets of paper, and I would spends hours drawing roads for me to drive my matchbox cars on, and then I would add more and more sheets, and the "map" would get bigger and bigger. I think the record for the most amount of A1 pages stuck together was 24. Good times. Anyway, can't wait to see your next map! My next one is nearly finished. (btw I have also been very tempted over the years to buy that Sydney directory, even though I'm not from Sydney. If I bought it I would be looking at it for the next year!)
Oh driving matchbox cars on maps is definitely an unlocked early childhood memory. Yes, that Sydney Map is definitely a W. Looking forward to the next map
I'm so proud of you! For getting back into it! And you werent stupid you hadnt done thisbin awhil and shos can be sondistracting anyway that its easy to forget some of the details of things until youve gone thru the motions, and glad you made this video as an experience exampl and reminder. Dont go cheap on yourself and your passion... frugal but never cheap and spare no expense for your comfort and passion, especially when it will last you awhile and you put your all into it. Thank you again for sharing ❤
Luckily I found your channel! You’re just what I looked for, a gifted guy with structurally great thought patterns, who can teach me about city planning. Great content!
Awesome, thank you!
Everytime I'm with someone who buys stationary I transform into the weirdest shop clerk and will bombard you with my year long experience of buying pens & paper. I'm not into shopping but I really noticed I start to stroll in the stationary area like a mum looking for food on a bio market.
The stationery aisle is like a pick n mix aisle 😅
Shopping gets so overstimulating, hard agreed > X < If autistic people were the majority on store construction teams, there would be a lot more attention to acoustics and not creating spaces that are inaccessible auditory nightmares lmao.
here's a menu selection of my specific coping strategies/knowledge for you or anyone else that might want to hear some new stuff to add to their roster:
-Silicone earplugs are so good. I use clear ones that are shaped like mushrooms with multiple thin caps stacked on top of one another. They're ultra cheap, come in a little pocket case, and never need to be replaced, meaning no extra tasks of keeping a regular stock of foam ones.
-Quick trips are key. I view stores as dealing constant psychic damage that chips away at my HP slowly. The less time I spend in the damage zone, the more HP I leave with.
-It helps to have a shopping list organized by what section of the store items are in, so I only have to visit each section once.
-If the store has an online shop, I like to make my shopping list by just adding items to my cart online, then looking at it in-store on my phone. It often lets me check if items are in stock before I go there, and do all my product comparisons and browsing online, then pick up exactly what I need quickly in the store with a handy reference image of the packaging. Or I buy things online using the "pick up in store" option to have someone else pick out everything for me and avoid a cashier/line, but some things I'd like to pick out myself. (like trying to avoid yucky feeling paper). It's so nice to leisurely build an online cart over a few days as I remember things I need, then just pick up my order after work one day.
-Sometimes in really large chain stores, the online item will tell me the exact aisle it's located in in the store, or at least what section it's in, which is nice for navigating and avoiding interacting with people.
-Most branded box stores have similar section layouts within all their stores, which helps with navigating new stores quickly if I'm familiar with a different store of the same brand.
-Hand carts are much easier and faster to navigate around the store with than large shopping push carts. ESPECIALLY when it's busy. Aisles can become traffic jams with people and carts but it's much easier to speedwalk around them with a hand basket.
-Going to larger stores during non-busy times helps drastically with the people/noise. Some stores have information on google maps about what times they're usually busy/not busy, and even live updates on if there are more or less people in the store than usual.
Headphones, noise cancelling ones are the go, wear them everywhere. Never tried Silicone earplugs. Quick trips too, also less busy hours, like really late at night, 9pm. Oh yeah never use push carts, always a basket. Great tips, love them.
I actually like pushing carts to create space between other people and me., if it's a store with large enough aisles.
That is amazing! I love to create my own countries, cities, but also a characters living in that. Im just a big introvert, so that is my form of therapy for about 7 years…
“Not Marsden Park” made me giggle a lot, cant lie 😂
got to say, self checkouts stress me out, if something goes wrong, asking for help is much worse than ignoring the cashier if they attempt small talk.
On shops: Yes, i too hate them a lot for the reasons ya mentioned... But ive the right gear to equip myself so theyre not so big an issue for me
I still mask up when i go to shops, which bas the side benefit of removin the expectation of others that i provide visual cues with my facial expressions
Particularly bcuz i also come equipped (soundin like im a toy action figure with that wordin xD) with dark sunglasses which both grtly reduce the intensity of the bright shop light, and remove the expectation i provide eye contact or facial features
And for the noise ive noise cancelin headphones and a youtube same show (Citation Needed by the Technical Difficulties) saved to my phone, as well as music if i need smth stronger to combat noise (mostly steven universe music; or other cartoons) (tho thats more for hvy traffic rly when i may need constant noise battlin it even with ANC headphones on); and this drowns out everythin and means ppl dont expect me to talk to them
Tho ofc i may need to say some scripted words dependin on circumstance, but if i just walk up to buy my stuff and dont talk, with my whole getup; they dont try to talk to me, bcuz they can tell im not talkative. I do usually still try to tell them thanks and have a nice day as i leave all the same bcuz i dont wanna come across as rude there
I also bring a stuffed animal in my backpack, and i put my backpack and stuffy in the cart, along with my cane, and i can stim with them if i get overloaded by anythin or to just preempt smth i think may be overwhelmin.
If im alrdy overloaded by the time i get to the shops, ill sometimes even keep my pacifier in under my mask, as this oral stim is my main go to stim; its also the ONLY reason i think i can deal with things like walkin by busy roads as well as i can.
I used to always grind my teeth and that actually contributed to why ive no top front teeth anymore, as they just got worn down by constant grindin... I didnt even notice it bcuz it was subconscious, i didnt know i was autistic back then; and just had been taught to suppress my desires to stim... Which just meant my stims became maladaptive like grindin my teeth; no one saw it so it didnt bother anyone... But it was hurtin me, a lot; all cuz they saw smth wrong with when i flapped my hands or bounced my leg or counted numbers for "too long" or did anythin else they deemed wrong
Noise cancelling headphones are definitely the way to go and a good playlist. Oh no, the grinding of teeth, i feel for you, that is tough. And stim 😢but also ty for watching
@@cityplannermismanages These last several yrs have rly helped me to unlearn the maladaptive stuff ingrained in me by ableist standards, esp now i live with my fiance (he/they) and have his constant reassurance as a fellow autistic; he also helped me get my dental care taken care of
I used to stillve my front top teeth but they were all worn down and id get abscesses nearly yrly, wasnt until i met my fiance that i was able to get proper dentalcare; cuz USA is shite at that and considers dental a luxury in more states than youd expect. Gettin those broken teeth pulled stopped the abscesses and is the first step towards gettin me partial dentures; things i nvr imagined possible for me when i felt beholden to ableist standards... I used to rly feel like there was no pt to life; but figurin out my neurodivergence, around the same time i figured out my gender, as well as brkin away from abusive biofam, did a lot to improve my mental health and let me envision a future for myself
And its a future where i stim more openly, like how i use my paci even when out walkin down the street, and like how i happily rock when with my friends; most them are also autistic so when we hang out, one of us starts stimmin and the rest soon follow more oft than not; esp rockin
I'm glad Ur mental health is improving now, and u got rid of the toxic ppl in Ur life 😊
Yeah I'm daunted by having to go to a shop. I like the activity itself but like... the people... I can't.
@Schildpadda Yeah I also have earphones in all the time I'm outside pretty much. I need to hear something comprehensible to not go insane in the middle of a store or something.
I'm always wearing my noise-cancelling headphones and a cap, I either look shady or special 😭😭
@@cityplannermismanages My earphones would be noise cancelling if Samsung didn't lie about them not being noise cancelling.
@Schildpadda I wouldn't say it's better, but it's certainly a lot more portable to school or something. Also pretty much every earphone I've ever tried fell out of my ear in a few second, but the ones I have now take a while to fall out.
@Schildpadda Samsung Galaxy Buds Live (also I use them with an iPhone). They clip on to your ear sort of, so they fall out much harder. If I stop the music my hearing is like 90% of what I would hear if I didn't have them on tbh, even with music on it's more than enough to hear traffic.
i do really enjoy your videos, just randomly got them recommended
I have a love of art, organization, and puzzles. In fifth grade I found half-size sheets of graph paper in my classroom. For months I was using them to make mazes. By the time the school science fair rolled around, I had enough pages that, when I connected them all into one giant maze, they covered one of those school cafeteria tables (the ones with the attached benches that can be folded up and stored against the wall). I got it laminated and set it up with dry erase markers so that people could try it for a prize (candy). Yes, it was huge, yes it had only one solution, and yes, I had it memorized. Only two other kids made it through the maze. At the end of the science fair I was told that it didn't count as a science project so I didn't get counted as having participated. Thinking back on it now, I think *I* was probably the science project the maze was demonstrating, lol! A year later my mother introduced me to counted cross-stitch (art combined with graph paper combined with pretty colors?!?!) and now I'm 43yo and still stitching, still loving graph paper (for various projects).
As for shopping, if I'm familiar with the store layout, know what I want to get, and have a route planned out, I don't find them too stressful. I try to avoid the really big stores like Walmart, because of the noise, the crowds, and the in-your-face advertisements.
the gigantic maze sounds SO fun, I bet a lot of kids from that science fair still remember it :D
Wow, that maze would have been so cool!
That maze sounds so so so awesome, especially how it spread across the cafeteria tables, Walmart must be the worse, we don't have it here thank god, but I hear its bigger than anything we got.
So pleased to find this. Thanks for sharing.
I got into calligraphy and fountain/dip pen drawing few years back as a meditative way to deal with my severe anxiety.
fortunately my city has a great art supply shop (quiet atmosphere, laidback staff, high quality products); it’s a pleasure going there even just to browse.
A quiet stationary and art shop sounds amazing. As long as the prices are reasonable too. 😊
I tend to wear headphones. Currently saving up for some good noise cancelling ones.
YOU ARE SO COOL!!! The fact that you have the time and dedication to mkae these maps is mindblowing! i love mapping. Countries, cities, mystical lands, anything. I have designed a few cities, but not to the level of detail as you. I wish i had as much patience but my ADHD brain would never. Still, keep up the great work. dont let haters get you down, they just dont understand you or they are jealous. Keep going man!
StationEry shop. Stationary means not moving. Think PapER for stationERy, cAR for stationARy.
Oh, yeah, hahaha. Man I'm stupid 😅
@@cityplannermismanages not at all! Love your maps, but I tend to be the spelling police at times. Just one of my 'things'
TBH I prefer the traditional checkout lanes, because it's less for me to worry about. I just put stuff on the belt and swipe when the cashier tells me to. Self checkout is annoying because the kiosk keeps narrating everything. And you have so much more attention on yourself because the worker knows that a lot of people will try to steal at the self checkouts by not scanning everything.
Oh I could never, I'd be so anxious trying to steal from a self service kiosk. Imagine going to jail for stealing a punnet of blueberries.
@@cityplannermismanages i used to acquire extra stuff that way when i worked at a big W store i hated; but only bcuz they left the self checkouts unguarded at night with the assumption workers wudnt steal, and the cameras cudnt tell if we did or not xD
Im actually sat rn under a weighted blanky i got that exact way, and walked right past a mgr with; him none the wiser xD
This is that ADHD impulsive/reckless side of me, esp bcuz at the time i rly didnt care one iota about a lot of life... Im in a much better place now tho, and i nvr got caught, nor cud they do anythin now even if they found out; its been too long xD
Thing is, i truly was reckless, as that store had fired another worker before for literally just "stealing a candy bar... When a janitor found a candy bar that was crushed and ate it for himself but did it on camera; he didnt think he had done anythin wrong and i fully agree. The candy bar was literally trash, but walmart is also literally trash
The fact the place was so shite is why i didnt care that they mite fire me; and i just didnt even think about the risk of cops bein involved. I nvr took enuf at once that the wudve bothered with cops for it tho i feel; unless they found out about how much i took in total 😅
@@SylviaRustyFae hahaha extra stuff, take that BIG W
Fellow Aut here, have you tried noise cancelling earbuds?
Admittedly, they probably wont fit inside that budget, but for me they really help with the noise of stuff like air conditioners or way too many people talking over eachother in a cramped room.
LOve those maps and you inspired me to start making my own and its great fun for killing time during boring lessons :D
you could use a 0.05 felt tip pen for fine detail when writing street names in narrow areas
Yeah, great idea, crazy on the first maps, a standard ballpoint was used for it all.
@@cityplannermismanages All of my maps are standard ballpoint as well. This is a great idea, definitely something I should consider.
Could you make a video showing the drawing process?
Yes, working on it. Next is the map on the wall, then drawing process. Sorry for the delay.
@@cityplannermismanages great :)
I have meltdowns when i have to go to the shops, it's not even so much daunting as it is a nightmare. I hate it so much. this is why i do 90% of my shopping online or through apps OR through small businesses where i don't have the sensory nightmares of bigger more mainstream shops.
Yes! I HATE shopping, unless its a flag store
Great vid as always, but ive got a video idea : your viewers send you (idk where) their maps and you rate them! The last days i made also some maps by myself bucause of you. And it was fun to make the maps! Thanks for sharing your hobby and tips. And im not even an autist (atleast i think)
Great idea, in the last podcast, the one called MAP PORN, towards we review 2 subscriber maps, check it out and you can find out how to submit your own maps. 😁
Did I see Kjelsås? My X girlfriend lived there .. lol
I dont like going in shops, I hate grocery shops the most. I like looking in fun stores, I dont like talking to the cashier..
My first map-book was NAF Veibok when I was a kid, I loved it, I could use a lot of time just looking in the book.
I just found your channel and 'boy-oh-boy' i'm hooked! :D
Subbed!!
Wooow just amazing seeing the old mapbook as one big map on the wall!
My favourite pens for anything are the uniball eye (officeworks has them). Price wise they are a great affordable pen and are pretty reliable and long lasting.
I'll look them up, great tip
I get sensory overload when I get tired so shopping is an nightmare auditory wise at the end of the day of a shit or tiring day. Headphones do help but I want absolute silence and sleep to help me recover. As for talking to people, depends on the day.
I never seen a street directory before I came to Australia. I was amazed about them. There where no GPS or smart phones so you had to use them. However, I found most items quickly, till I realised that in each new suburb the count starts at 1 again, grrrr. that was so annoying ;)
You could find a refillable pen that you like so you only need to get the ink.
Great idea, especially with these ink liners
Not on the spectrum (that i'm aware) but also not liking shops/shopping: online is my escape from that (although, sometimes missing the inside of somebody knowledgeable about things i want to buy)
Yes, I love online - except for Australian shipping rates from overseas as so CRAZY! Sometimes like x4 more than the product!
I get overstimulated by the florescent lights and sounds so I wear a hat and ear protection
This guy has way with words and I love it
Indudibly I do Pikachu
I didn't start liking city design, it started with Teslas automatic open door from phone key and got into it (never was a car person)
Then I learned how to fix traffic with trams and got cities skylines.. made everything low density and had a wall of traffic though the city.
Then Mini Metro to figure out how to make the spoke design
Went from a 50,000 population with grid lock to 150,000 without any traffic (until cargo trains backed up)
Me seeing suburbs scared me when I saw your maps. Have been against single family housing since I learned how affordable mid rise towers are and have a district with the business on the outer ring, residential as the middle ring with the buildings surrounding semi private shared spaces, and a large public park in the middle and the block stretches for miles to have uninterrupted bike transportation though the trees.
Oh, and the district surrounded by a tram, so you are never more than 1/4 mile from a tram and you just ride the tram to see every business.
And schools and other public buildings in the park area
TLDR: I've thought about city maps too, less about detail and more about maximizing functionality and efficiency, and lots of green space
Hi I love your videos. One of my biggest interests is stationary, so if you need any advice on what pens or paper to get I can highly reccomend a few different items for this kind of thing
For drafting:
I use a lead holder with 3b lead. I love to use them with 5.6 mm lead because then you don't particularly need a special sharpener and the lead is super soft, you don't have to press so hard or touch the paper and you can get a wide variety of strokes (it's thick enough you can colour things in really easy but also you can line with it because you can sharpen it to a point) the other bonus to having a lead holder with thick lead is that you hardly ever need to replace the lead, (I have been using my 5.6 lead holder for ~3 years and have only needed to replace the lead once.) You can also get them in smaller sizes with special sharpeners. I hate the brittle lead in mechanical pencils/pencils in general, also the wood doesn't feel very pleasant to me on wooden pencils (I have given myself raw spots on my hands by using these before)
As for pens I highly suggest and almost exclusively use the pilot fixion line because the ink flows really nice, they have markers, highlighters and pens, all of the ink is erasable! Most erasable pens I found in the past didn't work very well but the ink in the frixion line is heat activated, as long as you keep the rubber tip clean of other things it works perfectly. They also sell refills you can order them all on amazon
For paper I highly reccomend you go with a multimedia sketchbook that is heat pressed. You can get lots of different ones for a decent price and most of them are coil bound with perforated paper for easy tearing
For lining I reccomend tombow mono liners , this is a bit fancier but I've tried them against lots of different fine liners and they feel alot less scratchy
Happy mapping!
My brother also loves to map, he likes organic fantasy maps. I'm a concept artist so I dabble a little bit into it, even though it's not my favorite. I really love to see the thought that goes through the city planning, how people's desire to go to a store etc shapes the city. My neighborhood is a city planning disaster, everything floods and 4 other people share my postal adress and street number 😢 I hate going to the store too with my autism because of the noise and the awful incandescent lights they always use (????why do they do this???) but also because if I need to buy something I need to weigh all of my options and end up stuck there for a long time (especially if there's interesting things to look at, then I don't want to leave)
I think the worst part of it for me is the sensory processing part, too much going on, too many products to look at, too many sounds etc. I once spent a few minutes in an antique store that had cool things to look at, there was so much that I only lasted a few minutes then needed a rest, which is scary if you're making it into meltdown territory and you still need to find a way home.
Online shopping has helped me with this alot, although it can be stressful not knowing exactly what I'm getting.
Thanks for the tips! Really helpful.
I don't like going to the shops for similar reasons but also because there are cameras everywhere nowadays I like to cover up my face if I have to go shopping. I'm pretty sure chains like woolies and coles have some kind of facial recognition tracking software. I hate that so I like to wear a hat and sunnies and only pay cash.
It's weird. It's been awhile that I don't heard an echo-y shop here in France. Shopping is fine for me. The sound are mostly tamed. And most of the time, I have my headphones with noise canceling.
And if I want to stay eating at the McDo, I come off rush hours, or have my headphones. I have heard things I couldn't imagine. I should have written them, it would have been a great Book.
Glossy paper don't go well with every pen. I like them with a pen that slide easily.
I prefer "basic" paper with the small squares (5mm x 5mm).
I'd have gone to pipoos - that's an art supplies shop so you know the kwality is going to be good
I have a map directory of Singapore at home( that's all i have to say )
I'll start work on the 112 page map of yours
My recommendations:
- Clairefontaine printer paper 90g/m³ (cheap-ish, should be about 12 euros)
- basically anything from muji, they have nice booklets with lined, checkered or blank paper.
- bic crystal 1mm pens (cheap, get 50 pack)
Thanks 😊
I feel so akward in public in general, but I hate shopping or busy streets even more. Too many people, too much moise, too many eyes that I feel on me even when I rationally knows that nobody give a f... about me or what I'm doing. And I have to look the people I'm interacting with in the eyes, and use extreme courtesy as a shield for my own akwardness in talking to people. And having this constant impression that I'm making a fool of myself and can't help but quietly mumble about everything I'm doing to calm myself.
Exhausting.
Except bookstores, bookstores are heaven. I can spend hours in a bookstore, going from a book to the next with the overexcitement of a child in a candyshop. I remember a bookstore owner being awed someone was that happy to be in his shop.
Books are the best :D
But clothing shopping is the worst. In addition of all the bad things related to shopping, I have to look at every item, then choose some and try them on, all that for the majority of them not being a good fit, then going to another store to do the exact same thing.
I love maps and detailed drawings a lot. My problem with them is that they start to look dirty once you add a lot of details (I probably love small patterns more than big ones. I love looking at maps from afar, and parents needed magnifying glass to look at my school drawings). I wish there was a way to make 3d drawings so I could have another axis to work with. Also shopping can be hard. Thankfully my local shops don't have music going and I live in eastern Europe so people rarely talk to eachother let alone do small talk. I also go shopping rarely and to different stores so people don't recognise me. Also if I try to act naturally I do something wrong and only end up panicking even more. So instead I imagine I'm a newbie secret agent learning to act naturally and if I do something wrong that's natural. People probably think I'm weird but for some reason that works XD
Go to Britain no one talks to no one unless they hate each other
what scale do you draw the maps like what is the scale cuz my roads are to big most of the time
not buying ultra cheap for important stuff is one of my principles. Unless you have a good reason to go cheap, of course.
Because let's say you buy a house with cheap doors, cheap kitchen equipment... All you're going to do is replace them after 10 or 15 years. In the end it will cost the same price as more expansive equipment so it is better to directly buy the more expansive stuff.
That being said, it is not always possible to do so, which is when cheaper comes to play.
Very true!
keep going dude you need to map itritght so when internet goes off we rely on u
i'm the same way...but with house blueprints. i used to buy those big thick house blueprint books.
Oh yea, I can definitely get behind House Blueprints too
Just saw a short on top Japanese stationary for 2024. There's the Campus Flat Kimochii Notebook. It doesn't have rings and advertises easy across-seem writing and viewing. It might have less pages than you're used to, but it may also feel nice. No idea what the paper texture is like..
Also, I am not affiliated or endorsed, just thought I should share this with you
Ooh good tip. I'll have a look. No Binds is good, but I can see artistic flair to the binds, but I'd love to try no binds
Your gloves are awesome. I wear the same kind when I drive because the steering wheel texture is awful. ❤️
I'm daunted by going outside, and I also have the problem with the texture of paper. I bought a book for 65 EUR (105,81 AUD) and ended up never reading it because the paper just felt sooo disgusting :/
oh and nice video btw! :D I'm really enjoying them!
Oh wow, so much money, I'd be going without food to ensure I made it back. What was the book, do you remember?
@@cityplannermismanages
I've spent even more money on some books, but the texture of them were fine.
It was the Eighth Edition of "Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach"
And it sucks because I really want to read it. I tried the E-Book version but I get distracted easily when reading on my phone or computer.
Augh that sucks, I've been in bookstores browsing in the novel section and have instantly put books down if they have a specific cover paper texture, it's so gross feeling
For me I just put in headphones when I shop
3:40 I can't say I have that difficulty honestly.
Daunted by shopping? eh not really. I'm fine once I'm in there and I can just go get what I'm looking for. but the thought of getting up and going kinda sucks
Shopping...
as long as i don't here laughter nearby, people looking at me, Feeling people looking at me,feeling more people look at me as i go red in the face as more people look
Strangers touching me
Then it okay!
I am having a big problem
You know i said l loved puffer jackets.
Well cause it is summer my mum washed it without my consent and put it in the wardrobe and isnt letting me put it back on. I have to wear a horrible summer coat that is disgusting
Oh yeah not to mention the water bottle issue
I love puffer jackets 😁
I have to say you would have been a good map maker back in the day you were born too late bro.
That is something I think you would really enjoy collecting old maps, I have to say Google map isn't as detailed as the old Street road maps that we used to buy back in the day.
* All right. Two little round two but it said that that map is kind of sad, They used to be so detailed.
Yeah, street directories have a charm, I'm falling in love with all things analogue, 😍 digital is convieient, but lacks that texture feel
Someone developing a new map like that would be remotely relaxin' & probably large ime.
im decently high functioning autism, but my crippling agoraphobia has actually helped because whenever someone asks me if they can help me find something, my first thing I say before I can even think is 'no thank you, im good' and then im saved a huge amount of stress and awkwardness.
last night i started planning my own map because i've been fascinated by them, but your relatable enthusiasm and completely inspired me to try my own!
Agoraphobia is tough, feel ya! Keep on mapping, it's fun
...what does the 'W' stand for??
Woolworths, I think.

Shop online. You have a choice nowadays . I bet the results will be satisfying .
Most ADHD hobby ever lol. Still cool af.
I hate the shopping noises but in Germany cashiers don't really talk to you. I try to say thank you and good bye but on bad days a smile and a wave is enough to get trhough the payment which makes shopping a lot easier ...
make a ko-fi. :D
I’m not autistic nor do I struggle with anxiety but I HATE going to the shops 👎🏽
