In a similar but less urgent vein, if you're having a quiet holiday much like myself but could do with a(n asynchronous) chat, feel free to send anything through to the email listed on my profile.

Likewise, I'm sure other HNers may like to announce as such but just need a little nudge :)

I'm sure plenty of bios have contact invitations but us humans are pretty bad at the idea of cold calling strangers

I sort of wish there was a service for internet pen pals where the emails were purposely delayed come to think of it

Ditto. I too am available to chat / talk / zoom. My email is on file.

HN can barely keep a check on demon threads[0] with some automated systems to slow posting down and one good, even-handed mod. One uncharitable read and one response would lead to a nightmare realm that would crash Discord.
