        The simplest way is to be a Reddit mod.

              I don’t have an accent. Not an Aussie accent. I wear the hat and duster cuz I had a friend from there got me started on them about a decade ago and I stick to them rather adamantly because I appreciate what they do so much the entire concept of regional reference bears nothing on my skin when the fiction is so greatly better than anything else remotely close

        So, you know when you see a woman, and you speak with her like a normal person and form a connection? Nothing good comes of that.

        Instead of doing that, convince yourself in your head that saying even two words is going to end in disaster and then play on your phone and awkwardly pretend they aren’t there until they go away.

        It’s hard, but with enough practice it will become second nature. You’ve got this!

        yeah, be a turbo nerd, don’t be socially competent (autism is a good start) and don’t care about romantic relationships. It’s all about the interpersonal aspects anyway.

      this is currently my meta. Just betting that the likelihood that i get raped and end up “being a father” is low enough that having a vasectomy or something would outweigh the potential cons.

        Good news then! If you do get raped, it’s most likely to be by another man! No worries about fatherhood, just the pain, violation, and never feeling truly safe again.

          and it’s most likely that i’ll kill them somewhere along the process, because men do not fuck around subtly.
