looking for a bestie, preferrably shameless and slightly loopy [22M]

By shameless, I don't mean unhinged people filled with hate. Actually you can have some hate but like mf uhhh make it righteous hate, yk? I'm a little off the deep end but that's okay, I can swim with the big boys.

I talk a lot of nonsense so hopefully we can bother each other because the people around us aint on the same wavelength. Can't be like this IRL because people be so rude and gossipy smh.

M23 from Sweden, looking for friends and leaving no stone unturned 🫢

Good morning, starshine! The world says hello! 🌍

Winter’s darkness has really been reminding me of my loneliness lately, so I’m looking for some nice and friendly conversation that preferably could turn into a long-term friendship if we vibe. I would like switching to Discord and voice or video calls if so, but it’s no must at all!

Some basic information about me: I have a bit of a music career behind me, but the intensity of touring with bands is not for a homebody like me, so now I’m recording music alone at home instead. I love gardening and cooking, I’m a huge friend of animals, I’m philosophically interested and consider myself spiritual, I watch a lot of movies/series, volunteer, travel as often as I can, play Nintendo Switch, go to the gym, try to stay politically active (left-leaning), and read and write a lot of poetry. I have a huge vinyl collection, which constantly reminds me of how much excess free time I’ve had. Totally a nerd and gentle giant. 420 friendly. Sometimes I start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going.

I’m interested in adults only, without upper age-limit. Any gender is perfectly fine. Feel free to write, but please make sure to put at least a bit of effort in the introduction and the art of the conversation, and so will I. Hope to hear from YOU! 🫵🤩

(Idk what else I can say now ) I prefer to chat with people around my age pls, and I prefer to make some female friend (no offend! male are welcome also!!), pls hmu!

Anybody from IST, Let's Connect

I'm looking for a long term friendship. Your age and gender doesn't matter. Anybody can dm me. I just need to discuss everything about my day and yours also, send snaps, etc...etc... I'm slightly introverted in calls so I don't prefer vc. If privacy is your concern we could chat without revealing names. I just need a sincere human who doesn't ghost me. That's all..... . . . By the way I'm 21M . . .

22M Isolation has slowly caused me to forget my personality and lose sight of my identity.

I'm not sure there is any value in this post, I think I just need to get some thoughts out in order to form some sort of cohesion in them.

At some point in the past covid happened and high school went online. I dropped out because I thought online high school was a waste of time. I wanted a break from school so I just started getting jobs, none of the jobs stuck around for very long and that is exactly 0% my fault, trust and believe.

I'm gonna skip a few years and many chapters of the story, love and loss and fake love and fake loss, moving a few times, dying friendships and dead friends. And all sorts of other equally unimportant details that don't matter.

I've been living at this alone apartment for 4 months, and have been at this job for 8. I go to work and go home. Sometimes I heat up some raw food and call it cooking, too often I just buy take out. I talk to my brother occasionally while we play a video game together. But most of my time is spent in incredible monotony.

When I was in social environments, such as high school or a job with many coworkers, I would always be coming up with jokes, or inventive ways to do things. My ideas didn't just live and die inside my head, I actually did them in the world. And I have so many ideas still. and I know that my hands and my mind are capable of making them out there in the world, but I never do. I start and start and start but never finish. I used to write music, I don't write music anymore.

I don't know what else to write. Once again I have ideas in my head but can't get them out. I also completely and utterly failed here to make any of my thoughts cohesive in my head, but that's alright. If you've gotten this far I appreciate the time you've given me, even if I never know you did. If you have follow up questions or something to say or just want to chat, I'm clearly more than available for it.

With as much sincerity as a post on an anonymous forum meant for socializing could have,

Luke

34F 🇺🇸 For your new nerdy best friend inquire within! 👽

I'm rather nerdy. I spend most of my days at home hanging out with the cats, one of whom loves to play fetch. I've loved art ever since I was very young. I have huge ambitions to have my own graphic design gig some day, but right now I don't currently work at all.

I love video games. I got a lot to play on. PS5, Xbox One, Switch, Meta Quest 2, and my iPad. So, like, pretty much everything but PC 😅 I'm an achievements/trophy hunter. I also collect PS1 & 2 games to play on my PlayStation 2. In recent years I've been very casual with my gaming, playing a lot of platformers and survival/crafting games. I'll play a bit of everything, though, except for, like, sports games.

I love tabletop games. Star Wars Legion, Warhammer 40K/AoS, Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon TCG, Digimon TCG, Lorcana, and Star Wars Unlimited. I love to paint miniatures as well, but it's a bit of a struggle to actually get people to play with me. Never really gotten the chance to play any TTRPGs, but would love to.

I suffer from a bit of learning curve. Certified dyslexic.

I love music. Dance Gavin Dance, Papa Roach, Twenty-One Pilots, A Day To Remember, stuff like that. Bit of an elder emo. I wish I could play an instrument, but I fear I may be tone deaf 🙃

I love Marvel. Spider-Man's probably my favorite. Though in recent years I've been growing to appreciate DC a lot more than I did before.

I love Harry Potter. Pretty sure my house is Hufflepuff.

Huge fan of The Office (US). I've seen the whole series countless times.

I love horror movies and got into true crime on YouTube a few years ago. My favorite horror movie is The Blair Witch Project, second to the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

I love anime and manga. Demon Slayer is by far my favorite. I also really love Fullmetal Alchemist, Attack on Titan, Digimon, Dragon Ball, Dandadan, and Sword Art Online.

I'm doin' the Japanese, Spanish, and music courses on Duolingo right now.

I love baking, coffee, and grilling. I don't have too much confidence in my cooking skills 😅 But I'm trying new recipes all the time and I've been getting better! I'm rather adept at baking though, and I love smoked meats 🤤

🟢4 20 friendly because some seem confused🟢

24 M Germany - Looking for people to voice chat with.

I find it much easier to connect with new people online on voice chat than on text. If you feel the same way, send me a dm.

A little bit about me: On the outside I may seem like a sarcastic piece of shit. But, like an onion, as you peel off more layers, you find the exact same thing and you start crying.

Bonus: I've been told I have a nice voice.

Looking forward to meeting some lovely people.

47m enjoying a morning with great weather. Come chat.

It's kind of warm, the sun is shining, and I actually went outside and enjoyed my coffee there for a bit. I'm pretty much over winter at this point and hoping this groundhog does its job and brings us an early spring, LOL. Anyhow, got a few errands to run later but I'm enjoying myself in the morning so I thought it would be a good idea to come on here and see if anyone was up for having a chat. Doesn't matter who you are where you're from, as long as you're an adult. I actually love to chit chat, have small talk, I'll go deep into specific topics as well. Tell me how your week was, what was the highlight, who's that person at work that really annoys you, lol. If you can have some strange and supernatural weirdness that goes on in your area, would love to hear about it.

In terms of my interests, I like music of all kinds, horror, sci-fi, and fantasy in all its media forms, I also like being outdoors. Also enjoy learning different languages, and learning how to play music. Honestly I find a little bit of everything at least a little bit interesting so we can chat about whatever you like, hope to hear from some of you soon!

20F Looking to Learn More About Communism Through Conversation

Hey everyone!

I’m a 20F looking to connect with people who are knowledgeable about communism. I know I could read books on the topic, but honestly, I don’t always have the time, and the more I try to learn, the more I realize how much I don’t know (I think Socrates said something like that?). It can feel overwhelming because there are so many things I want to learn, but I feel like I never have enough time.

What I do know is that I learn best through conversation, especially from people who are passionate and well-versed in the subject. So, if you’re someone who understands communism and wouldn’t mind chatting about it, explaining key ideas, and maybe helping me sort through the complexities, I’d really appreciate it!

I’d love to have discussions, ask questions, and hear different perspectives. If you’re down to chat, feel free to comment or DM me!

Looking forward to meeting some interesting people!

Do you ever feel frozen in time? 🤔

I'm not talking about a fairytale moment, but just generally! Tell me all about it, while I have a relatively busy life, I've kind of found myself at a pause, a little demotivated and uninspired.

Im 25f and I keep thinking about what's next in life.

In need of some Positivity, a laugh and some wisdom 🥲
