honestly we need state intervention on the "make new friends as adults" front. I'm talking state backed bowling leagues (and other stuff) that you get paid for attending. Call it a direct investment in the social fabric.
I don't think you need to pay people to attend so much as put in legal third-place protections so they can't be ratfucked into nonexistence by landlords but that'll never happen
I need to make an effort post about how third-spaces were thought up as a concept by a chud boomer. Until then watch this video in the background as you do something else https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8E5MegoW2pA
There are a bunch of ways you could do it for sure, the hard part in currently-existing society is giving people more free time without them feeling pressured to use that free time to make money.
COUSIN, I AM NO LONGER *ASKING* YOU TO GO BOWLING!
Legitimately the worst thing imaginable
it's called joining a communist party
I support this.
I literally just joined a state sponsored softball league. It's completely free and the city pays for the umpires and parks
