What MBTI type (and maybe enneagram) do you think I am?

I already took some mbti and ennagram quizzes, but I'm curious as to what regular people are going to type me as through their own analysis instead of an algorithm assigning points to certain cognitive functions to determine an mbti. I'm not going to share what results I got on these tests because it could lead to responses being a little biased. Btw, I'd highly appreciate it if you share an analysis as to why you think I'm whatever type you think I am because I love to know why instead of just a plain answer, though you don't have to if you really don't want to. I'll be using the provided typing questionnaire, though I will skip questions if I don't know the answer.

* Give a general description of yourself. How old are you?

I'm a 19 year old male with autism. I'm not going to give a description of my personality because we humans have a tendency to either have an idealised or pessimistic vision of ourselves, and I don't want to risk lowering the accuracy of your responses because of it. I really like science fiction, especially if it revolves around space. Actually, I really like space in general. I like technology too.

* What do you do as a job or as a career (if you have one)? Do you like it? Why or why not? If you are not working, what kind of job do you want to do or what are you studying?

I'm a university student majoring in IT. The question on whether I'm enjoying it or not varies from subject. Some are ok, others like programming and web development I have enjoyed. Regardless, I do not enjoy the massive amount of work I have to do. I'd prefer to be an artist or streamer, but the odds of becoming successful enough in either of those to the point where I can earn enough money are insanely low.

* Do you have any mental or physical health issues that might affect how think or choose to live? Provide a brief description.

As of now, I have not been diagnosed with any mental or physical health issues that I can think of.

* If you had to spend an entire weekend by yourself, how would you feel? Would you feel lonely or refreshed?

Refreshed. I love spending time by myself. Talking to people is scary and mentally draining. I can spend long periods of time by myself before actually wanting a conversation again.

* What is your relation with movement and your surroundings? For instance do you prefer a sport or outdoors event? If an outdoors event what is it? And why? If not what type of activities do you tend to engage?

I hate going outside. I don't like outdoor activities nor do I touch grass. I always prefer indoor activities like gaming and art. Bowling is the only sport I like, but even that is reserved for special events.

* How curious are you? Do you have more ideas then you can execute? What are your curiosities about? What are your ideas about - is it environmental or conceptual, and can you please elaborate?

Very. A lot of stuff I watch on youtube is stuff about science and hypothetical stuff, especially if it revolves around space. I don't know what the question means by "environmental" or "conceptual" ideas, but I find myself spending a lot of time thinking about things like potential methods of space travel or how we might use technology to become immortal. I have an innate drive to understand how the world works and why things happen. I also found myself coming up with cool story or video game ideas that I'll never make a reality because I'm not ambitious enough to make them a reality and I won't be able to do all of them within a lifetime.

* Would you enjoy taking on a leadership position? Do you think you would be good at it? What would your leadership style be?

No. Not only would it be mentally exhausting due to the immense responsibilities behind it, but I also simply don't have the traits of a good leader. Specifically, I'm not very good at dealing with people nor do I like to do so. I also do not consider myself to have the charisma or the organizational skills of a good leader.

* Are you artistic? If yes, describe your art? If you are not particular artistic but can appreciate art please likewise describe what forums of art you enjoy. Please explain your answer.

Yes, I am quite artistic. I mostly plan on drawing NSFW art, but otherwise my art would generally involve galactic civilizations, space, robots, and highly advanced technology covered in neon lights. I just haven't done any of the latter yet.

* What's your opinion about the past, present, and future? How do you deal with them?

In my opinion, the past exists only for learning from one's mistakes. While I do get nostalgic at times, I never dwell too much into it because it only distracts from the now and the future. Speaking of which, the present is important for making the future a reality. Despite knowing this, I often find myself procrastinating because I can't help but think about the future instead of actually trying to achieve it. I have a strong connection to the future. I think about it a lot. I like to think about what technology might look like in the future or where human civilization might be heading towards.

* How do you act when others request your help to do something (anything)? If you would decide to help them, why would you do so?

Unless I'm busy, I usually try to help them, albeit I'd feel annoyed at the same time. It'd be rude to not do so if you don't have a good reason, and I don't really like upsetting people anyway.

* Do you control others, even if indirectly? How and why do you do that?

I don't think I really do that. At least, I don't recall myself controlling others.

* What are your hobbies? Why do you like them?

My favourite thing to do is play video games. I have always loved them for as long as I can remember. They're basically a core part of my identity. I think the main reason I love them so much is because it's like a movie, but you're the one in control. Another reason why I like video games is because I think I like solving problems. Let's say there's a boss and you have to figure out how to defeat it. I always feel satisfied when I manage to do so. Another hobby I enjoy doing is drawing. I've never been to art school and I don't plan to, but the reason why I like art is because it's a fun way to express myself. It's a fun way to show my ideas and share my beliefs. I'm a furry btw. I like furries because they're like humans but exotic, and because I just kinda like animals in general.

* How good are you at strategizing? Do you easily break up projects into manageable tasks? Or do you have a tendency to wing projects and improvise as you go?

I'd say it depends on the task, but I usually improvise most of the time.

* What's important to you and why?

Two things: Understanding the world around me and my freedom. I like learning new things and understanding how things work, and I like being allowed to do the things I like and to express myself.

* What are your aspirations?

This question doesn't explain whether these aspirations have to be realistically achievable or not. I'm going to assume they don't have to be achievable. I want to be immortal. I don't care what other people say about it. I hope that at some point in my life, humanity will find out how to use technology to achieve immortality and that I will have access to the technology. This could be done through methods like anti-aging research or mind uploading. Mind uploading in particular I'm interested in because with that you could create backups of yourself, and living in a virtual reality where I can be whoever I want to be and live in any kind of world imaginable sound awesome. I'd also love to explore interstellar space. It's always been my dream to venture out into the cosmos and see what fascinating worlds and alien life I could find. I'd especially love to meet up with aliens someday, I'm curious what they would look like or what cultures they might have.

* What are your fears? What makes you uncomfortable? What do you hate? Why?

If you read my answer to the previous question, you may have already guessed what my answer to this question is; it's death. I have always found the idea that your life has to end someday to be absolutely disgusting. I am particularly afraid of the possibility that there may be nothing after death. I don't understand how people can think about eternal nothingness and be comforted by it. Not only will I not be able to enjoy the things I like, but I won't get to see how humanity progresses, what challenges we may face, how we might solve them. I will never accept death. I hate death. Death is bad.

* How attached are you to reality? Do you daydream often, or do you pay attention to what's around you? If you do daydream, are you aware of your surroundings while you do so?

Very detatched. Real life is boring and I like to think about concepts and fiction all the time. Whether I'm aware of my surroundings while doing so depends on the situation. If I'm daydreaming to lower my boredom while doing a boring task, I'm usually aware. Otherwise, I'm pretty unaware of my surroundings.

* Imagine you are alone in a blank, empty room. There is nothing for you to do and no one to talk to. What do you think about?

Why am I in a blank, empty room? Did someone put me in this room, and if they did, why? How might I get out of here? What am I supposed to do without a bathroom? How do I sleep when there is no bed? Is the stay temporary?

* How long do you take to make an important decision? And do you change your mind once you've made it?

It really depends. It's not uncommon for me to take a while to make a decision, but it's also not uncommon for me to make a decision immediately. Sometimes I change my mind later on.

* How long do you take to process your emotions? How important are emotions in your life?

Quite a bit I think. I don't consider myself to be a very emotional person, and many people have described me as such. When it comes to making decisions, I think I prefer to use my head than my heart.

* Do you ever catch yourself agreeing with others just to appease them and keep the conversation going? How often? Why?

Not necessarily to keep the conversation going, but I do sometimes pretend to agree with others to prevent any arguments. This is rare however, as I am generally a very honest person.

* Do you break rules often? Do you think authority should be challenged, or that they know better? If you do break rules, why would you?

I usually avoid breaking rules because I don't like getting into trouble. I do sometimes like to break minor rules if it's really dumb, and it is common for me to question authority if I feel like a certain rule is illogical.

* What is the ideal life, in your opinion?

One where you have access to everything you need, have the freedom to express yourself, and are able to achieve happiness and fulfillment without hurting others.
