MODERATORS
Look up some of the old reddit meetups (when they used to be a thing).
I went to a reddit meetup in the early 2010s and...this is gonna sound like bullshit but it's true....I was shocked at the average attractiveness in the room. Like there were no bombshells but almost everyone was above average. Only one or two that were conventionally unattractive... So I guess no mods were there (badum tsss)
I went to one of the mod meetups they did right before COVID.
There were some attractive mother fuckers there. Also the founder of bread stapled to trees, who was simultaneously one of the oddest and nicest people I've ever met.
But yeah, there were a bunch of good looking people. Most of the /r/NFL mod crew were there and all of them were standard jocks. There were enough attractive strangers that it damn near turned into a reddit mod orgy (which is probably why I haven't heard of another mod meet up with unlimited booze)
I went to one of those and it was a lot of fun. I was surprised at how well some of those folks connected so quickly (groups of them were immediately playing board games and hanging out). I wish I had half the confidence those people have.
When I don’t, I act like I do, and the rest takes care of itself. Plus more friends plus more actual confidence.
