    Just popping in to say hello to all my beautiful trans siblings and comrades (that includes you). Covid and the following total societal apathy has utterly annihilated all of my previously vibrant social life and I want to make friends again. Hopefully I can participate and grow with you all around here. <3

      Yessss welcome! Wrt IRL social life though I found that I made a bunch of friends through my local city support group and ofc, also got a lot of mental and emotional support through that. So just a thought!

        Oh yes, I am in my city’s covid-active groups, but even there I feel a bit alienated. I am not so far gone as to think we all need to be ready for the vanguard or whatever but my tolerance for general liberalism in ostensibly activist spaces is very, very small, and this may be the brainworms speaking but I feel there’s only so much you can push back against that tide until the alienation becomes self-reinforcing. They often do real, tangible work for people so I don’t mean to get on their case so much- just thinking about some frustrations out loud.

        I used to play so much Magic. I have so many painted minis. A vibrant social life!
