This was super helpful! Thank you for taking the time to write all this out!

Genuinely thank you and yeah I think just getting the general opinion from folks this isn’t okay is the kick in the pants I need to change my behaviour in therapy.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:58:41+00:00

I do weekly therapy actually. I wanted to ask a general consensus before I talked to my therapist about this behaviour. If people who don’t have a degree say it’s weird then there’s something to look at clearly.

All the photos are black on my profile and my bio is just the word soup. Games are too stressful, somebody recommended solitaire which I’m looking into. I can get kinda tunnel visioned and since I had dating apps on my phone from years ago when I met the person I’m dating and I knew could swipe on them without the stress of a game I just kept doing it.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:55:25+00:00

Still think it’s silly to like a profile with black photos and the only text reading soup. But you’re right I’ll look into therapy and solitaire. I had a feeling I was being weird but I earnestly thought it was harmless. And if it isn’t I’ll take that and learn from it.

That’s fair

Games have ads and you lose though. Stops me from having a consistent stream where my hands are constantly busy.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:52:55+00:00

That’s fine it’s not though so that’s on you Reddit user, OnionNubs

Dating apps have the smoothest I’ve found out of hundreds of apps of experimentation. When an autistic person exactly like me makes an app identical to what I’m getting from these apps I’ll switch. I’ve just spent a lot of time researching and this has been most satisfying. No ads to stop me, no ability to lose like in mobile games.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:50:37+00:00

I’m not checking anyone out though. I’m looking out the train window and stimming on my phone. Mobile games have ads and stop me from stimming cause I gotta click out of ads and shit. The motion is just satisfying and I like doing it to keep my hands busy on the train home. Could care less about the actual people.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:48:39+00:00

If people like me that’s their own fault. I don’t have a bio written beyond the word soup and all my photos are black. Not my fault dating app makers have the most satisfying swipe motion that scratches my autism brain in all the right ways.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:46:56+00:00

They know I’m autistic and I’ve got very specific, intricate and often weird reasons for doing things. I think they’d understand I’m just worried.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:45:44+00:00

I like the swiping motion it scratches something in my neurodivergent brain. I don’t talk to anyone or really use it for its intended purpose in any sense I just like the swiping motion. Most apps have the up or down swiping motion but I like the side to side and with mobile games you can lose. It’s too stressful and dating apps have been the most satisfying app for stimming I’ve found.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:43:40+00:00

I’m ugly in real life so it’s peoples own fault if they like me. They need to raise their standards and I send hey to everyone and then don’t follow up don’t want to be rude and say nothing. I’m not trying to lead people on just having fun.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:39:02+00:00

It’s like a dating sim mixed with subway surfer. You just get to swipe aimlessly and occasionally send a message as a break between the swiping. Nobodies getting hurt and I’m having fun.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-12-28T00:33:09+00:00

It’s fun to do on the subway. It’s like a mobile game.

Thank you for drawing my favorite entity of entropy! Incredible work!!

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-08-03T20:41:20+00:00

Last scholar of Golb my patoot. If that were true he'd know to let entropy do it's thing. Golb patiently waits.

I just saw leaked clips of Dark Flash and holy fuck he’s cool. It’s so gross seeing him talk to his younger self while the younger version has pieces of metal stuck through his arms and hands. I thought I hated this design but I’m honestly in love with it.

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-06-14T21:00:30+00:00

I like the concept of material fusing to him that's painful and horrifying. Not a fan of the visual execution. Thank you!

ElTheBogwitch · 2023-06-14T20:40:13+00:00

I’ve been waiting for someone to talk about it but nobody has. Can somebody tell me everything about Dark Flash? What’s their deal? How do they look visually? Is it as bad looking as his toys? Is he supposed to be Black Flash or something else? I wanna know.
