Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

Saw some old friends and we went out for fancy pizza, at a presumably instagram famous place given the line/ages etc. But, with 4 old friends, laughing and catching up in line was still a great time!
Also played a few games of soccer, two where I felt like the old man I pretend not to be but two felt really good.
And the weather forecast is finally calling for snow on our local ski hills so I'm going to take a morning off and if the weather holds, a full day for a better mountain farther away.
Oh, and finally listened to a buddy and started Severance, holy hell that show is great! Anyone else watched/watching? (Please no spoilers, I just started!)
Severance is amazing. I'm waiting for the full season 2 to be out before I watch the second season though, since I don't like waiting a week between episodes.
I just finished season 1... HOW ON EARTH ARE YOU STILL WAITING? I finished last night and have been waiting for this interminable workday to end so I can find out how all the craziness unfolded.
Yeah it's not easy to wait honestly. Trying to find other shows but a lot of the other stuff is dogshit. :)
I think season 2 is probably not as good as season 1 too, it's impossible.
Ha, yeah I'm torn on waiting. On the one hand, there is something lovely about savouring a show and pondering what's coming/happened but on the other hand I want to know right goddamn now!
