I want to find a community of people that will rage against the machine, so I've started playing slots.

I'm still bummed that I missed their last tour ever, hope they change their minds and throw a farewell tour, but honestly we were damn lucky to get that one.

Some ideas: join a community garden and learn to grow fresh produce. Start a public book club to learn and explore with others. Find a maker space to design and tinker. Join an armed resistance movement to fight the fascist takeover of your country. So many fun pastimes!

The latter two I absolutely rec..
I’ve been a tinkerer all my life. Best way to socialize and solidify.

Ah, it's too early in the day... I read this first as "pick up hobbits" and was intrigued...

If you pick the right Hobbits, you’ll get a free trip to Isengard.

[–] ook@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 weeks ago

The hobbits, the hobbits, the hobbits...

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Hobbits seem like great company!

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I've been called a hobbit multiple times. Happy to be picked up. Can't say I'm good company though.

My hobbies are computer science and homosexuality. I am temporarily in Finland and damn are computer sciencentists here boring

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The solution is clear: Find Finnish homosexuals and teach them computer science.

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Or the other way around. Teach Finish and find computer science.

I do actually have some hobbies that are useful for meeting people. Issue is I'm the kind of nerd who even has trouble connecting with other nerds when I meet them.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Same! (I also tend to mumble sheepishly at the floor when I speak, which doesn't help.)

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

(TBH my biggest issue is probably not the way I interact with people, but that due to health reasons I'm really bad at keeping appointments, but that's kinda beyond the scope of this comic)

[–] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Is there a way to see it without having an account?

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)
