I don’t own anybody at all.
People are not my people, and I just had to spend 3 days away for work with:
- in person meetings
- manning a stake holder booth
- dinners out
- giant BBQ gathering
- …
Cats, cats are nice.
People and cats share a common trait, as far as I’m concerned: just a giant group of dicks, species wise, but there are some really cool individuals in there.
Cats are usually cool to me. Strangers too. It’s people you think you know well who can really fuck you up.
This is why 4chan and Reddit meetups are the most sweat inducing awkward meetings ever I’d rather play magic the gathering with the fedora boys. But I am an online nomad looking for quality content so I avoid large communities like insta and tiktok. The chat is wild.
I’m in one group that gets along great when it meets, but we met online in a website comment section before social media was really a thing. We wreaked havoc and I think we traumatized the admin for life.
