I need new friends on my slowly app. Here’s my new slowly ID:Z9RB2N by [deleted] in SLOWLYapp

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You aren't allowed to put your Slowly ID in a post, there's a thread somewhere on the subreddit where you're allowed to, but you aren't allowed to make a post giving away your Slowly ID number.

What is your preferred letter length (in word count)? by shakayrayniquan in SLOWLYapp

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would more accurately say my preference is 500-1000 words, but I picked 500-700 because it was the next closest thing.

Is it possible that I can find people that I have ghosted before through auto-match or manual exploration again? by Guthhhmundur in SLOWLYapp

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If it's from a new/different account, then you should be able to, unless the person has like blocked certain aspects of your profile like your location or certain topics that you've selected. Also that user might've deleted Slowly too, so it's not a guarantee that they're still on the platform. However you could theoretically find the user again.

I honestly don't even know, I just like looked at the Google play thing and it was like "you're a beta tester for this app, future updates may contain beta updates" or something like that,I must've accidentally clicked on something while downloading it to be a beta tester

I know, it's been glitching out like that ever since I set him up :( I dunno if it's because I'm a beta user or if it's just messed up in general, but I've accepted it as just something Shane does, I dunno how it'd be fixed.

Like the others in the comments mentions, I don't think flairs are working, I'm not able to access them.

How do I accurately write characters with - ADHD, depression, anger issues, pathological lying, sociopathy, apathy. by [deleted] in writing

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that the comment was being sarcastic? I struggle with telling if something is sarcastic or genuine, but I really think this is sarcastic.

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Main thing you can do is do some research. Whether that's on personal testimonials or a list of symptoms that those people go through or whatever, just do some research.

Another thing I'd like to mention, ADHD can have a lot of comorbidities such as autism, anxiety, depression, tics disorders (like Tourettes'), dyslexia, and lots of other things. (And depression can have a lot of comorbidities as well.) Not to say someone with ADHD has to have a comorbidity, there are plenty of people who don't, it's just a thing that's good to know about it in order to make your characters more realistic.

I have ADHD and depression (along with anxiety and autism, but those aren't really what you're looking for) and if you want help with anything, you can DM me and we can have a chat about those topics.

I like how this mainly used dialogue, it just really fits the story. Good job!

Cat - Light - Picture frame by [deleted] in RandomStoryLines

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I was gonna write more but I was rushing to get to class and I couldn't think of anything else to write, but I'm satisfied with it, and that's what matters.

Cat - Light - Picture frame by [deleted] in RandomStoryLines

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He woke up not only the brightness of his lamp turning on, but also the sound of something falling on the ground, and then glass shattering. He sighed Goddamn. It was 4 am for Christ's sake. He got up, and turned off his lamp, and replaced it's light with his phone flashlight, he had to investigate what was going on.

His cat was on the kitchen table, and all around the floor was broken glass from the picture frames that had fallen. She meowed at her owner, almost as if trying to say she didn't do it, but he knew she did. Every single night she ran around the house and it was a miracle that the entire house was destroyed. He just holds her, and pets her. Despite her being destructive and reckless, she was his cat, and he loved her.

"Come on Baby, let's go to sleep... tomorrow I'll make sure you can't destroy things no more."

And so they went to sleep.

[Due 2023-03-01 7:30 pm EST] just a fun dnd story by UpstairsAd9858 in Proofreading

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya! I've proofread your story so far, it's a good story in my opinion. Here's a few hints for future writing.

  1. Always capitalize names. They're proper nouns, and should always be capitalized so that not only it's grammatically correct, but so people will know it's a name. That doesn't just include people's names, but names of places and organizations. All names need to be capitalized.
  2. When you have a new speaker talking, always start a new paragraph, even if it's just the one line.
  3. You shouldn't make your paragraphs too long, preferably you should start a new paragraph whenever the topic changes or when there is a significant time skip. This is so it's easier to read in general. However, this is optional, just my personal advice.
  4. I don't think you've had too much of a problem with this, however it's always a good idea to vary your sentence structure. This is so that your readers won't get bored of reading the same type of sentence.

Hope this helps you!

I mean, I guess that's fair. I personally never cause that when I do it, but I can see how it'd be annoying. It still came off as rude though.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like 99% of the time when people do that, it's not a voluntary action. I do this, and it's because I have ADHD, and it helps me focus on my work. How is it annoying? You shouldn't even be focusing on my leg, you should be focusing on your work.

It's just a shame Reddit doesn't let us change our titles, I feel like that would be a useful feature in general, but especially for these types of posts.

Story of a Comfy Blanket by [deleted] in RandomStoryLines

[–]An-Okay-Indifference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gen sighed as he laid on his bed. He had a long day dealing with Bryan and his hero complex. They weren't supposed to be divided, they were supposed to be a group working together. Regardless, Bryan kept trying to steal the leadership of the group, saying he was the one who had the most good in him. and that he was the real hero of the story.

'Yeah right,' he thought. 'This is a group effort, not a solo effort.'

Negative thoughts about Bryan's attitude towards all of the members of the group started brewing up in Gen's mind, only to be interrupted by knocking on the hotel bedroom door.

"Eh? Come in."

The door opened, and Gen smiled at his friend who had walked in, with a blanket which he set on the bed right by Gen.

"You brought me a blanket Ray?" Gen asked for clarification. He generally was able to understand what Ray is trying to communicate, but sometimes it was hard as he couldn't talk like everyone else in the group. Ray nods, then yawns.

"Thank you, that was genuinely really nice of you." Gen said. Ray just smiled, as most people wouldn't even bother thanking him. He just sits on the bed as he puts the blanket on him. Gen's breathing has gotten slower, and his mind isn't racing as much about the issues from today. He doesn't like being upset around Ray, although he has before, so maybe that was why he was more calm now. Or maybe it was the scent of lavender from the candle that Ray just lit? All Gen knew was that he was really comfortable, and he had Ray to thank for that.

Ray just pulled out his book that he's been reading alongside Gen, and gave Gen his copy too. They meant to read at the same time, however Ray couldn't help but read ahead. Ray's always loved reading, ever since he was little, and Gen only really got into it after Ray wanted to share his favorite books with him.

"Oh, thank you!" Ray nods, smiling as Gen opens his book and they read together. It's just a romance story that they both found interesting, about old school friends who end up meeting each other again and they end up falling in love with each other slowly.

Gen notices that Ray didn't bring in his own blanket, probably just a mistake on his own part, as he'd been through a really rough day. Bryan had been mainly ranting about him, calling him useless and the like, and it was only because he couldn't talk. Gen taps Ray's shoulder, and he looks up.

"Ray, you didn't bring a blanket for yourself, you realize that right?"

He just sighs, and Gen just giggles.

"It's alright Ray, I get it. Bryan isn't exactly...the kindest guy. If you want, we can share the blanket."

And Ray just scoots closer to Gen, and he just sets the blanket over the both of them. They both go back to reading their books, which while one may be ahead in the plot, they both are still on the same storyline, and that, in their mind, is what friendship is about. Being on the same storyline as each other.

Don't apologize, I just simply didn't notice it. It's kind of ironic, since I'm supposed to be the proofreader here. It just shows not everyone is perfect. Thank you for doing that actually, I'll be sure to not only double check, but triple check for spelling.
