so 4 years ago, I started playing this spaceship game called Elite dangerous. and boy oh boy the community is EXTREMELY welcoming. I once ran out of fuel, and an entirely player run group called the fuel rats were dispatched as paramedics to help me out. mind you, real people, not npcs.
I was short on money once, and a group called the PIlots Trade Network helped boost my financials, instead of simply telling me to git gud.
sorry for the short post, and bad english. I cant find the right words to describe my experience with this game. love you, Elite <3
I saw this sub pop up quite a lot until it somehow.. vanished. Something must have triggered my memory to visit the sub again and posts are months apart. What happened?
It's hard to share my interests. I don't know how to make them interesting enough for normal people. And I've been ridiculed for them before. It's nice to know now that I can talk about stuff here and I don't have to bother anyone about it.
I like:
Early 1900s kids books. Specifically H. Irving Hancock and Horatio Alger. I used to read the Rover Boys, but those books are 1000% more racist than they need to be.
Lgbtq bible study: I like Bible study that brings under read stories to people's attention. It's fun to help people understand that the Bible doesn't say anything negative about lgbtq people. And that there's far more positive things.
Did you know indoor plumbing used to be "against the Bible"? True! In America (because where else) when indoor plumbing was becoming widely used, some preachers taught that it was ungodly to use it.
After all, God has told the Israelites to take their shovels and go outside the camp. While they were walking to the promised land. It's in the Bible and that should be good enough for us!
I don't see any signs these days saying God says no flushing.
Research: I like doing research. All different kinds. There's this curiosity (or nosiness) thing where I need to know stuff. I like asking people why they have the jobs they do.
I asked one young lady why she was studying dental hygiene. She said it reminded her of working on cars with her dad growing up. When you keep an engine running well, the whole car works. When you keep someone's mouth healthy, their whole body works better. That was an awesome answer.
That’s all…. Gatekeeping is running rampant and I can’t find any other subs which embraced the open gate quite like this one.
