Holy moly, people are lonely. Feeling alone around others. The joys of solitude. Not fitting in. Sucky social mores. Not having friends. Does social media help or hinder the loneliness epidemic? Quality over quantity. Things people talk about. Being creative. Finding other freaks. People who complain all of the time. The signals you send out into the world. Little connections. Making people laugh. The power of listening. Learning self-awareness. Human stupidity exposure. Are people getting crankier? The power of a smile. Stranger danger. The creep factor. Your imagination as your best friend or your biggest foe. Jumbleweeds. Is Snoop Dogg’s personal joint roller out of a job?
