I'm autistic and do this.
Are autistic people known to post a lot in social media or websites to "fill" their imaginations?

I like to throw random thoughts out there cause I found it interesting or funny, it’s nice if it gets any engagement cause I don’t have anyone to talk about this stuff in real life

Many communities have one or two members where the frequency of posts leads me to believe that definitely something must be going on but I don’t know for sure what it is and honestly those people are the backbone of Lemmy, usually posting high quality stuff all day like it’s their job. I have no reason to look into it further 😄

It feels so cozy that I can instantly pinpoint some of these carriers of this wonderdul community, because we are small enough.
- cm002 posts just everywhere kinda
- TotallyNotJessica carries the entire femcelmemes, but it actually has a wholesome spirit in it, and not one of those toxic femcels that you would see elsewhere. She is great
- Def an exception, but MentalEdge has a bot which justs posts a million varieties of arts to multiple communities. Hardcarries the anime art community fr fr.
We love you guys <3

@TotallyNotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone Don’t forget her yuriposting. Top quality stuff.
I can confirm that I’m not autistic, afaik I’m a plain cis white guy with a probably neurotypical brain.
My “bot” is a set of automation tools I wrote that let me turn my fanart collecting hobby into posts that get posted at a constant trickle instead of a flood. I do see and verify every post before they go into the queue.
My real quirk is my commenting habit. I was already an avid reddit commenter before finding lemmy, but over here something puts it into overdrive. I think it’s because discussion here is just higher quality and more respectful (at least in the subs I frequent). Plus its small enough that the comment section is not as much of a popularity contest. I’ve averaged 10 comments a day for two years now… That’s normal. Right?

I’m definitely not doing it every day. For fuck’s sake, I can’t be bothered. That and I’d go broke.

You put such a beautiful, artistic spin on my compulsive essay-writing.

I enjoy the info dump about info dumping

I talk as much shit in person, to be honest, it’s just that irl people are able to walk away.
It’s much easier to corrupt minds through surprise mentions of anchovy sandwiches.
