This is a place for adult (18+) Lemmy users (lemmings?) to find others with similar interests. Tell us a little about yourself and what kind of lemming(s) you are hoping to find. We also strive to connect people in real life, so if you are seeking a penpal or something similar, this probably is not the place for you.

Formatting your posts helps everybody find what they are looking for quickly, so it will be enforced. [] # -

Hi! I'm new to Lemmy and I'm looking for a friend to get to know and chat with every day. I'm 27 years old from the Canadian prairies (MST), a complete homebody, and my hobbies include reading, drawing, baking, and watching things. I also love nature and am passionate about biodiversity and ecosystem conservation, even though I'm not really an outdoorsy or adventurous person.

Here are some photos of me and stuff I like to do: https://imgur.com/a/WXNxG2u. I hate taking photos of myself so please don't ask me for pics when we get to chatting, but if appearance is important to you, there you go, that's me. You can decide whether you'd like to talk to me based off those photos.

As a conversation starter I'd love to hear all about your 2026 resolutions. Maybe we can even work on ours together! Or if you're not a goal setter, tell me about the last rabbit hole you tumbled into. Mine was a true crime case about the murder of Boston police officer John O'Keefe. If neither of those work, feel free to take the lead and direct our conversation as you please.

Thank you! 🙂

'Sup fellow Canadian lemmy user! Good to see someone else saw this community and had a similarish idea, hoping to see it used like this more!

Oh man, rabbit holes...the history, people, and internet age drama around Rochdale College in Toronto has always been fascinating to me. A good signpost to the drama is a web search for 'Wolf Sullivan Rochdale College' - deeply miserable guy and I think a lot of his blogs are deleted, but a heck of a character if you like early internet feeling drama with a very unique Canadian flavour.

Also noticed you're looking for more stuff to do locally recently to get yourself out and about a bit. Good on you! Have slowed down/started limiting myself to the same old haunts, but need to start doing a bit of that myself. So far, what looks like the coolest thing in your neck of the country you want to check out, but haven't yet?

And welcome to Lemmy, btw! A little late now I suppose, but always good to welcome new users.
