@youronlyone@c.im @actuallyautistic @autistics @youronlyone@firefish.social it doesn’t sound contradictory at all! I was talking w a friend this week about how we use social media and for me, I stay away from platforms (or do more lurking) when too many of my IRL friends become social media friends, bc while I crave some connection, I need to keep some of it at a distinct distance. Also I crave small, often crowded poetry scenes, but hate bigger crowds or 1-on-1 interaction
