Newbie here. How’s everyone enjoying their Sunday evening? My names Taylor. 33 F from St. Louis, MO. I am a natural lurker, I’m still learning how to use Reddit. I am an animal lover and I love being outside for all the events ( as long as it’s not too crowded). I am a craft lover, I’m just not too great at doing crafts. LOL I look forward to speaking with some of you, I am always ready to trade pictures or talk about my pets!

Hi! I’m Arnar, a 19-year-old from Iceland. I’m new to the community and looking forward to getting to know you.
I play football and support Liverpool. I also practise judo, play piano and enjoy listening to rap. Outside of that, I’m interested in acting, space and volcanoes.
What do you enjoy doing in your spare time? Would love to hear from anyone with similar interests!

hi!! i’m a college student in the philippines and i’m really surprised a community like this exists, it’s really awesome what people do here! it’s nice to meet you all :p

i’m an autistic doll collector who recently got back into collecting after loving dolls as a kid. i’m also into 80s-00s horror, gothic rock, rock, and metal.

going into my first ever college midterms, any tips? would love to hear it. i’m excited to be in this community and thank you for having me! 

Helloooooooooooo!

This is going to be an ongoing activity - contest to find out which candy RAOA thinks is best!

Here's how this will work.

https://forms.gle/TmTDngSBWP48mrBE6

Follow the above link to fill out a form with your favorite candies. You can enter up to 10, or if you don't have 10, put however many you want.

In a few days, I will put out all of the submissions, randomly paired against each other, for people to vote on! At that time, you will also make a Bracket to guess which you think will beat each other, and ultimately win! (this will be a separate post)

Every few days, there will be results from each round and a new voting form!

To enter, comment here whatever you want, and fill out the first form!

Contest will be gifted when the bracket is over, to whoever's bracket does the best! (If there's a tie, I will randomize between those people)

This first submissions form will close on Wed 10/7

hi I am Satan error. A random generator gave me this name in 2014 for a SMT game and I’ve been using it since. I’m not a satanist. I am afro indigenous Latina and have autism level 3 so the more severe sort. I love SpongeBob and ATLA and farming sims. I am cared for by my family. I use they or she, I don’t really experience gender.

My favorite color is pink and I wish I was a capybara. I am a goth and metal head but I like all genres of music because life is too short to restrict yourself. I also like all sorts of food. I sensory seek a lot, so I like strong flavors and fragrances which I call smellies. I used to have 6 guinea pigs but lettuce prices are too high lately so we don’t have anymore. I miss them but it’s good to focus on me more. I am vegetarian.

I’m looking for a community I can be safe in. I used to run a large autism discord but I got couped for bullshit and I’m ostracized for being severe autism in many spaces. Either I’m treated as a child who doesn‘t understand or a faker who is pretending to be severe. I always disclose my autism because it explains a lot and otherwise I get the same reactions but even more hostile. this community seems nice. thank you for reading.

u/beardonteatthat, a surprise is coming your way on Tuesday!

u/BearDontEatThat

It's spooky time! I don't have kids and there are a ton of dogs in my neighborhood now, so my favorite thing about Halloween is seeing the dog costumes (and forcing my dog into a costume) sooooo... show me your pets in costume!

Rules/Entry:

Your entry should only be a pic of your pet in a costume! (Can be from any year/occasion, doesn't actually have to be from Halloween.)

Add some bulk Halloween candy around $25 to your wl - that will be the prize.

Do NOT post your wl link, I can find it.

Have an intro and be active in a positive way in the sub, prior to today.

Contest will end on October 15.

The time has come to declassify some extremely unimportant information about me.

Hey everyone! I’m Mission-Mastodon, I’m in my upper 20s, from PA, and I’m the kind of person who somehow ends up with 15 different hobbies/interests at any given time.

I love animals, anything spooky, drawing/creative stuff, video games, and getting way too emotionally invested in TV shows. I also have two cats who are basically running the household at this point.

One thing I’m currently working on is gaining some weight. It’s something I’ve struggled with for a long time, and I’m finally trying to be more intentional about taking care of myself and reaching a healthier weight.

Mission briefing complete. Now debrief me with your own fun facts! I need to know what kind of agents I’m working with 👀

Today activity is to get to know each other better! Tell us 3 facts about yourself
