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.

@evacide I gotta be honest, it was surprising to me to find out that I actually did have a threshold for alone-time and there was such a thing as too much.
Granted, I didn't find it until COVID, but still...
Heresy, I say.
When I was a kid I dreamed of being on a mission to Mars, alone.
The South Pole seems kinda fun too.
*Working remotely since 2002, not a fan of places with people.

Iam a goblin! And being called weird is actually a compliment. -

@evacide most of the people I've worked with have been weird goblins and I'm fine with that. I think they were too.
I really miss it.

@evacide There's another way to interact with people?

I find myself leaning into the weird, with occasional side-eye from Third Thoughts. -
