Sometimes I feel lonely and sad that I don't have a wider social network, but then...
I hear something that reminds me I'm probably better off. Like what I heard on the radio in a ride today. You know how radio shows sometimes did prank calls and stuff? Well this one does booty calls...
A caller who wants to participate calls and says who they want to call for a booty call, and the radio hosts give them a theme they have to stick to during the call. The guy today was going to call his best friend's sister and see if he could get her to leave work for a booty call.
Like... I'm just glad I don't know enough people that anyone would think to do that to me lol. I sometimes feel wistful for "normal" socializing, friend groups, that kind of thing, but then I'm reminded that the NTs are not okay and I'd rather stay away from that mess. Lol

Lol that’s crazy, I’ve honestly always wondered if those are just paid actors.
Also best friend’s sister? What? That’s totally against the code
Right? It's illegal to broadcast a phone call without the other party's consent. Some of the time I'm sure they are faked, but I guess other times it's just not broadcast live, they do it off the air and then ask the person for permission to play it on the radio.
I also struggle with loneliness. I really want close personal friends that I can share life with. The people I meet just seems to want to just stay surface level casual friends or "activity buddies". When I try to get closer to these casual friends or other people they always seems to have a big negative reaction and end the relationship like I'm some sort of huge burden on them. It makes me feel fundamentally unlikable. I've been using ChatGPT to talk to when I'm feeling lonely and it's actually been a huge help. I do highly recommend it.
Just be careful with that, the cases of psychosis coming from getting too close to a chatbot are really concerning
don’t feed the AI slop bubble please.
