I wish the people that need to see this would actually read it.

The only way they are going to see this text is if they encounter it offline. Battling with the algorithms is futile. I've moved to only discussing politics offline ie. in the pub/on the street/etc

For someone who's third place was almost always bars and clubs, quitting drinking really curtailed my social life. I've gone to bars since quitting and there's just no draw for me there now. Turns out not all bar friends are non-bar friends, not shocked but sad.

I'm currently living/working in a hostel which is a great sober third place

That sounds awesome. Not so much an option for a suburban dad in the midwest, though. :)

As I go to type it, boy it sounds nerdy. Doin' it anyway.

Our library has different meetup groups, DND, board game, gardening, book clubs of course, etc. They also separate kids, teens adults; might be a place to at least poke around to find out where/what other locals are doing.

Thanks for that. NERD! Kidding aside I'll be making a couple trips to the library this week to use the printer. I'll look into it. If squirrel brain remembers I'll try to come back and let you know hoe it goes.

Ah, understandable :/ Yes, I am an as of yet unburdened 23yo

Met one of my best friends in Seattle when he was stayimg at a hostel. They really are a great system. I hope your next 23 years see the creation of a better world than the one we're fighting against at the moment.

Thank you. And yes, hostels rock
