So, how's the weather?

There has been a month of constant wet drizzle here.

I actually feel like Arc Raiders has helped with this a bit.

I’m very distrustful of anyone who signals peaceful intent with nothing but an emote line. If people use voice comms, it shows a modicum of social openness, and helps humanize them. More often than not, people end up chatting about threats they’ve seen or where there’s useful loot.

There’s even a famous clip of a guy breaking open a bot who gets shot at, and he defuses the situation by yelling at the shooter that he expects better of him, and that they’re all just trying to get by.

Not me. I can tell when you're just smiling and nodding, and not actually listening. It's very obvious when people do it, and is usually my cue to stop talking cause no one actually cares.

It’s disturbing how many single women put on their dating profiles how much they hate small talk. Like, how else do you get to know somebody?

A lot of my problems with social interactions almost completely disappeared when I realized humans are just animals and treating them as such makes recognizing behavioral patterns a lot easier.
