  • The closest friends I have is:

    • Kid I met in a programming forum about 11 years ago. We were friends but not super close. Over time kept reaching out. Today, still not super close in my opinion, but talk on the regular.
    • His recent friend of the family

    I have had a few really close friends in life, but we are no longer friends

    • Middle school: a girl my age. We played Minecraft together
    • 18-20: a guy into programming (same programming forum), and shared very similar game interests
    • 20-22ish: A couple friends I played a minecraft RPG with. One became a streamer, the other 2 just changed interests.

    Also, not a lemmygrad user, just saw the post in Hot.

    • Reincarnated: Living Life in Another World
    • Reincarnated as a Slime
    • Re:Zero (IIRC)

    Yeah, I agree the genre has come down to a basic recipe.

    There are some exceptions:

    • Sword Art Online, technically an issekai, but only because they are trapped in the other world.
    • The Devil is a Part-Timer, reverse issekai where something foreign and god-like comes to the real world and becomes mortal












  • Your wording is intense. I’m not sure if that’s just your online persona, or just venting in this thread, but it’s not very welcoming. You seem like you talk more than listen. I’m not trying to roast you or start bad vibes, that’s just my impression.

    • Communism could be a better political system, but any political system is subject to failure or overpowered elites
    • I have no problems wearing masks when it is applicable. When covid started I didn’t go anywhere without one. I was in San Francisco, where everything shutdown overnight.
    • I made friends with a vegan, and after we talked, I concluded that in another life I would be a vegetarian, but I was born to a butcher. I would love if modern meat were replaced by lab meat. I do eat vegan meals sometimes. I think utilizing milk and eggs, etc. for human consumption is fine, they are byproducts that would go to waste otherwise, however it has gotten very inhumane because of the industrial scale.
    • What’s your definition of activist?

    Let’s not confuse this with wanting to be friends, parts of your ideals are relatable, but from my impression, our debates would result in you trying to win everything.
