Sometimes I wonder if working from home for so long has turned me into a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird.

@mahryekuh To be fair, my friends are goblins, my family are goblins, and most of my co-workers are goblins. It's a goblin-rich environment.
@evacide I dare say that Fedi is also a goblin-rich environment, which is absolutely not a complaint.
-
@evacide On the other hand… "normal" is boring, right?
@mahryekuh @evacide So comfortable could be. (good)
But work steps into the daily routine. (bad)
Visiting office once a week is a happening! (good)
Timeless and unhandled workmate communications (bad) -

@mahryekuh Goblin (complimentary).

@evacide you know who is making things weird for me: people who won't offer you a single genuine expression, just their shoddy persona. I'll prefer straightforward weirdos over those regrettable performances any day.

@superpixels @evacide I was about to respond with this!

@evacide Some days I'm part goblin, other days part welcoming hobbit...
Most days I dream there was a national holiday where it was acceptable to walk around town in hooded cloaks and trade trinkets...

@evacide I've come to embrace my goblin side, but it's taken me a while.

@superpixels @evacide I make every zoom meeting weird, and I’m *pretty* sure I was that way *before* working from home for 20 years.

Thank you.

@evacide I think that you might have missed a word out both times.
"Then I remember that I have always been a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without *them* making it weird."
