Note, I'm not really asking for suggestions, since I've pretty much given up on seeking gay friends. If they happen, they happen, but I feel like I've exhausted my options for the time being.

Gay Feathers
― drawn to them like a moth toward a spanakopita (Laurel), Monday, 27 February 2012 20:25 (fourteen years ago)
An erect perennial herb, native to the midwestern United States, with flowers arranged on a thick spike. The purple to lilac flowers begin to open from the terminal end of the spike and slowly descend toward the base. Prefers well-drained, gravelly or sandy soils, and must have full sun for best results. Be patient, usually requires two to three years to become established from seed.
See? It takes 2 or 3 years, you have to be patient.

Just to throw out a suggestion: my social life in Chicago was saved by improv. It might not be a particularly easy thing to do with kids, but I've definitely known people who did it. But once you're in it, it's pretty much a readymade social circle to the extent that you actually want it to be. And (speaking as an introvert who can sometimes tend toward hermitage) it's probably still the best thing I ever did for myself for a number of reasons.
Heh, I actually quit taking improv classes in Chicago when I realized that I didn't care to commit the after-hours social time that seemed necessary for me to feel like I "fit in" with my classmates -- or at least in the way that I felt when I did improv with friends in college. I can definitely see how it'd be appealing for people actively looking to expand their social circle, though.

when i moved to l.a. i had two friends, one of whom became a hermit and another who left town for a couple of years, and i was forced to go it on my own.
ha, i just remembered that when i moved to london in 2004 i also only knew two people. neither of whom i talk to any more!

Yeah, you kinda have to put in the time if you wanna make the most of it. I kinda can't even imagine walking into a roomful of relative strangers every single week (a growing percentage of whom had spent some time together outside of class) and trying to make that work.
But a little more on topic: Facebook...what's that all about?

The other day FB undid my default post settings, which are to post to "friends , but exclude these people" (and the exclusion list is quite large, its family and all the ppl I basically dont know). I was merrily posting crap to EVERYONE only FB for 2 days before I realised. I'm pissed it happened without my say so. I dont know wth happened.
― Lindsay NAGL (Trayce), Monday, 27 February 2012 23:14 (fourteen years ago)
What happened was Facebook's endless around fucking with their stupid site, which seems to result (unsurprisingly) in their constantly breaking or undoing things.

Least it didnt make me do public posts. Never understood why anyone does those. I'm paranoid I'll get run over one day and the newspaper will filch pics of me from my FB.

What do they even mean? Those are not owned by... oh it's a facebook thing never mind

Some of them not even companies.

Now, if you said that there's a high possibility that there are products derived from Monsanto-sold crop seeds in pretty much everything in that list, that is highly probable
