I suspect, if you took an interest in what they do want to talk about, you'd find them much more interesting than if you expect them to care about what you've just mentioned.

They talk about:

Work

Random gossip about other people

...

And they do:

Doom scroll WeChat

Watch boring Mandarin-language Dramas

...

Like we went to see Project Hail Mary the other day... their English sucks so I had to explain the plot to them afterwards... and they're just like... "cool" not really seem to understand the whole story... and like didn't ask much questions...

I felt kinda sad...

RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
