Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I'm over my cold from last week that stole my weekend from me, so I actually get to go do things. Bought new work boots today after something in my heel(s) finally said enough was enough and started hurting enough that it couldn't be ignored. All in all things are looking good.

On an unrelated note: any ideas on how to assist someone be more concise with their language politely?

I'm struggling to not get frustrated with the amount of preamble, staggering, and second guessing that happens on a regular basis for what should be simple conversational topics. It just takes so long to get to the point that I feel forced into a box that there's no polite way out of.
