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

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I’m sitting in the hospital room I’ve been in since Tuesday and can’t even begin to explain how bored I am. Let’s chat about anything except politics, I could use some distraction.

I collect hobbies and may even know something about your hobbies. What do you like to do?

Hanging in there. I’m literally watching someone sleep. Contemplating a nap here as well.

How’s life treating you?

I've been doing good but slow due to the holidays.

Work is slow, you mean? What do you do?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I work in a branch of the local news or town law that registers and highlights peoples' good deeds and contributions (think criminal records in reverse).

That sounds fun, unless you don’t have many good deeds :)

That's the nice part about the whole thing, that there is some faith in the idea that there is potential good in everyone, in such a way that counters the intended idea of criminal records that unceasing shame deserves to be applied to those who do wrong. A large percentage of clients are people with quasi-ruined lives and we challenge that.
