Reddit: I've lived in Germany for 4 years, worked full time, learned the language and still have made zero friends
Steve Albini was a punk and indie icon who as an engineer oversaw the making of perhaps thousands of albums – often refusing to take credit or money – such as Nirvana’s “In Utero.” Byron Coley, a longtime friend of Albini's, talks about archiving his collection of belongings, unexpected finds he’s listing for sale, and more in “Digging Through Steve Albini’s Closet.” “I try to make sure there’s enough stuff on the website at the lower end of $25, that way if people just want to own something from Steve’s collection, they can afford it.” Read more from @pitchfork:

What’s a “normal” number of real-life friends to have? Dunbar’s Number is a theory that posits there is a limit to the number of friendships we’re capable of having at any one time. For most people in the U.S., that number is about the same as the average number of Facebook friends per person. Read more from The Independent:

Thoughtful, ultimately joyful memoir, on a theme of figuring out who you are and how you want to live. Subtle mismatches well explained. Metaphors and real-life happenings, told in cartoon form.
It was pointed out on a random video I watched that, as children we hang out with friends almost every day but, as adults we often find ourselves isolated from our pals. Something about that hit me right in the feelings.
Is almost all of our online social media chaos borne of a desire to interact with friends more often? Is it just me, and why it hit so hard?
The video wasn't even about that. Which made having a strong reaction all the more of a shock.

It's been more than a month since I started using Mastodon. I should have done this sooner tbh but here's my #introduction :
I'm an otaku who has watched hundreds of anime. I'm also a pirate btw. I rarely watch any other movie or series other than anime. I'm an anime obsessed guy. I also starting learning about privacy this year and have been learning more and more about it. I'm a privacy conscious user. I'm an Android only user btw.
I'm looking for friends to chat with on Signal who are also privacy conscious like me and I would be happy if they also watch anime. I'm on Signal and SimpleXChat btw
