I'm experiencing intense loneliness, right now. Of the platonic sort. It's not romance or sex I need right now.

So, I was wondering ... what is your favorite website for reducing loneliness during the lockdown?

Are you on Twitter at all?

A lot of it is foolishness, but if you're careful about who you follow it can be surprisingly involving. There are informal communities around different subjects -- e.g. Architecture, literature, etc. 

It has the benefit of being interactive, but not screamy.

Unfortunately Twitter is my least favorite after Facebook and Discord---Facebook is just absolutely horrible and Discord is too screamy---for me Twitter is just like only having the Facebook wall, where people say what they're up to and engage in incredibly non-deep and boring monologues---only it's limited to fewer characters.

Perhaps it would help if I mentioned: I pretty much only like discussing important topics. I don't like small talk. For me a good conversation has to at least include room for disagreement because I just can't enjoy a conversation that involves nothing but head nodding whether literal head nodding or verbal head nodding.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
