It is so vital, even for us #introverts, to have good #friends. Thank you, life, for long, deep talks with wonderful people. 💗
If you and your pals have ended up on different services you can still connect using BridgyFed. Hopefully BlueSky federates soon and does away with the need, but until then.

I'm #planning on #graduating in a year or so, so I'm trying to make more #friends and get more involved in the #community outside of my #school. That way, I won't be #alone after I don't have all my school friends and community around anymore. I don't know where I'll go for a #PhD, but this area is still my #home.
I'm into #gardening, #cooking, #sewing, #painting, #CreativeWriting, #reading, #VideoGames, and #anime. I'm from the #Rochester, #NY area.
Join Chris( @stoneymonster ) and Elecia( @logicalelegance ) as they chat with Debra Ansell( @geekmomprojects ) about finding friends and exchanging neat gifts, accidentally tricking people into making unmanufacutable boards, and happy, blinking lights.

Hello. I joined Friendica in October of 2024, after Facebook closed their Basic Mobile site (not app). I live in New Jersey and am forty-one years old. Some of my interests include studying dandyism, nineteenth-century grammar, Upper Received Pronunciation, British history, and the Regency. I like coffee, tea, wine, nasal snuff, cooking, hot baths, reading British literature, watching nature and historical documentaries, gardening, hot weather, and playing cards and dice. I also love cats. In classical music, I enjoy Baroque through a bit of early Romantic, while in popular, I usually prefer 1950's through 1970's. I love theatre (especially English and Viennese operettas, Edwardian musical comedies), and some Regency/Georgian plays. I prefer antique menswear and accessories. It's my dream to either buy a genuine Edwardian suit or have one commissioned. I love wit, wordplay, and dry humour without vulgarity. My parents are lesbians, and I am a huge gay rights supporter, but I stop short of using singular they and promoting the idea of more than two sexes, though you can certainly lean more towards one while being the other (as I do being a masculine woman), or change from one to the other via hormones, surgery etc. I have been totally blind since I was two months old, due to Retinopathy of Prematurity.
I am happily childfree and am not religious. I hardly ever write about politics. I tend to get along better with people older than I, but I will accept friends twenty-one and over. I have no understanding of chronic illness, anxiety, depression, loneliness, etc. I enjoy hearing about cats, cooking or gardening adventures, antiques, and interesting life stories.

hi my partner knows how to touch computers so now we're on self-hosted instance so i guess here's my updated #introduction!
i'm sam and work as a #science #teacher in #denver #colorado and i live with my partner, aurora (@celestiallavendar), and our #cat, cheeto (he's orange lmao)
honestly, these days i am just trying to constantly learn more and read more and do more and explore new hobbies, especially being an #urbanist (i'm obsessed with #publictransit) and #actuallyautistic (meaning i'm too burnt out to actually do things) and i am also trying to learn #spanish and #tokipona and really like #homestuck #pokemon #doctorwho #anime #rollercoasters #biochemistry and #possums
anyways, i'd love to make more #friends so feel free to follow or talk to me, especially if you're also a #queer #neurospicy chaos gremlin too!
Be The #Change ...OR ... Become The New #System of Working With Others.. ⬇️
Steps could be:
➡️ Working with Others Together (Encouraging and Doing for each other)
➡️ Working Daily Yourself (Realise own value)
➡️ Increment other people...
(add value to them / find out how)
🔁 Repeat 🔁
For me this is #Friendship (for those that can and feel for it) and having #mutual #Friends / #Partners in Work
You can continue your existing life but more doing the list above.
Does it sound feasible ?
The last generations have no idea how much more fun the 80s were without cell phones, when anyone could ring a friend's doorbell and simply be told if he or she had time for a visit; and there was no drama if declined. Today, many folks lose their temper if some idiot blocks them online.

(This is a companion piece to my dating post, but here, I am strictly seeking friends. Therefore, the beginning will look similar.)
Hello. I live in New Jersey and am forty years old. Some of my interests include studying dandyism, nineteenth-century grammar, Received Pronunciation, and the Regency. I like coffees, teas, and nasal snuffs, and enjoy cooking, reading British literature, watching nature and historical documentaries, gardening, crafts, and playing cards and dice. I like Baroque through Classical and a bit of early Romantic music. I love theatre (especially Regency plays, English and Viennese operettas, and Edwardian musical comedies). I prefer antique menswear and accessories (no feminine clothing). I love wit, wordplay, and dry humour without vulgarity. I am happily childfree and am not religious. I respect those who are, as long as they don't try to convert me or base their lives around it. I also have no time for mind games, drama, or political correctness/sugar coating. I have been totally blind since I was two months old, due to Retinopathy of Prematurity.
I am seeking friends, either online or off, though offline would be ideal, so we can meet and do things together. I don't care about your sex or sexual orientation, but I would prefer friends no younger than twenty-one. I tend to get along with those who are older than I, since we usually have more in common, but it's not a requirement. I am blind, but it's not the focal point of my life. Still, it does mean that I can't drive. I really don't have any understanding of chronic illness, anxiety, depression, loneliness, etc. so if you need someone who could help you through that on a personal level, I'm not the one you're seeking. I also have no children and tend to avoid them, though I am polite when meeting them. I love cats, so if you have any, I would love to meet them or hear about them. I also enjoy hearing about cooking or gardening adventures, antiques, etc. and I love learning about interesting lives. If we do meet, I need to get to know you a bit first.

For the past 2 weeks, I've been hosting a private #minecraft Java & Bedrock #smp with my friends, and that made me shine a light on something: the only time I have fun in Minecraft is either when playing minigames/practice servers or when I play a survival world with one or more #friends.
I started playing this game when I was 9 on my PlayStation 3, and I moved to Bedrock and Java in 2019. I hope the recent game development changes will make this game even better.
hewoo~~ been a furry since 2016... so many years, still alone, like the world forgot me. i'm in my twenties but feel way older, tired of this endless loneliness. my pronouns are he/him but no one really uses them, barely anyone notices me. computers, programming, anime, that's all that's keeping me going. they fill the long, silent days, when it's just me and the noise in my head 😭
sometimes i think, who am i really? feels like there's so much inside me, but no one will ever know, cause there's no one to know. wish i could be more open, happy, but every try just ends in emptiness and sadness. i'm quiet, closed off, but maybe that's cause no one ever really wants to know me. feels like i don't belong in this world, like a lost pixel on a screen, unnoticed. every day is just a fight to survive, to find any meaning in the gray that surrounds me 🌎

I'm here to make friends so I don't feel so alone here at the end of the world. You like #cats? That's a follow. You like/make #music? Follow. You have #ADHD? Follow. You geek out about your hobbies? You like #scifi and/or #fantasy? Follow! Are you funny? Kind? #Antifascist? Worried about the #ClimateCrisis? Follow, follow, follow!
I have a bunch of new followers today, so a re- #Introduction is in order.
I'm Serge. I'm sometimes known online as @emacsen
I'm a believer in the power of #FreeSoftware to do good in the world and be an agent of self-determination.
I believe in #FreeCulture because culture is part of humanity.
My most recent project is #Babka, an online space for #Jews and Jewish allies.
I'm a #geek I love play, #boardgames #ttpg, #videogames, #superheroes
Let's be #friends
