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.

Been together for almost a decade and haven't started on our parenting journey yet. Honestly, many topics. We're both very critical of the world around us and kinda tired with people being automatons so much of our convo is just hating, lol. Personally, I'm a religious man (Abrahamic monotheism in the form of Islam) with a lifetime background in Western philosophy so I talk a lot about death (it comes naturally!) and my wife entertains it and the convos that flow from it (unless it's too late, or too early, haha). We don't really do much "pointless small talk" but we're both neurospicy so that checks out. Besides that, we just like to annoy each other and say stupid, triggering things, and that's probably a good 10% of all of our interactions. 😅
