I’m the same way! I think it’s because I’m friends with enough full on extroverts that my social battery fills up without me trying before I ever reach the point of thinking, “Hey, I’d like to chat / hang out with someone. I should reach out.”

Right, I’d be down for a tofu sandwich but why like that???

I guess it depends on your definition of “good” and “sucks.” Salt and vinegar kettle chips definitely aren’t nutritious, but as far as my tastes go, they are fucking good and definitely don’t suck.

😂

Honestly, nothing crazy. Things that have elecited reactions include traveling all over the place solo, scuba diving, sky diving, hopping into a four seater plane when it’s raining and foggy, getting up in front of people singing… Nothing really big, but the number of times people have said, “I could never do that!” that have coincided with me thinking, “This conversation is way more stressful than that!” is kind of funny.

I do a lot of things that people are afraid to do and it feels so easy for me… and yet simple social interaction can be so incredibly stressful.

Tbf, I strongly relate to your top comment and am mostly not autistic, so I think it was worth putting out there.

Yes!

“When I think of queerness, I seldom envision a genital meet and greet. Friendship, love, intimacy, romance are all melded into one singular concept of bonding."

So. Much. This.

Cool, I’ll definitely look into those when I get a chance. Maybe Starbound to start with. Thanks!

I got into gaming late and don’t have a ton of time to play, so I’m not a super experienced gamer. I LOVE No Man’s Sky. Any thoughts on which of these I would enjoy most if I feel like branching out?

Oh good!

Nah, Walter lives on the other side of town.

Does this have something to do with Myspace? (Sorry, I’m in the minority here in that I’m not a techy person at all so I figured I’d use this super old Flickr account to share images. Please tell me if there’s a better way! 😂)

I came here from the reddit fallout, but I’m really bad about posting and commenting.

I find the Spotify algorithms work pretty well if I’m frequently feeding new music into it. But yeah, otherwise it can get stale pretty quickly.

Same. I’m 37 and I do regular playlist exchanges with my dad’s 70 year old friend (my dad passed away a few years ago and both of us strongly connected to him through music, so we decided to keep that going through each other). We’re both constantly seeking out new music.

I’m pretty sure it takes place every year! This is my first time visiting though.

Right? This doesn’t read as satire, but I’m baffled how anyone could write this with a straight face.

As someone whose grandma lived in Dunlap, I can smell this comment.
