I schedule my friendships like I schedule my meetings

Most of my friendships are with people I ride with regularly. Many of them on weekly rides, others I just bump into at a monthly social meeting our riding club does.

I guess when you are very active in a hobby that ends up where most of your friends are.

We also did a monthly game night, since my wife has been vaccinated along with several of our friends, we're likely to reboot that very soon.

My long winded way of saying that this is a great idea

Why is this downvoted? It’s no more or less extreme than any other comment above it

LOL. Don't know, HN users are weird. I've ceased worrying about it.

I don’t lose sleep over it haha, but it’s still annoying.

HN is one of the few communities that isn’t just a constant stream of zero effort content, and the discussion is more often than not both productive and insanely helpful.

But it’s certainly not perfect. There is group think, downvote/flag abuse, abusive comments (piped through a thesaurus is all) etc.

But yeah at the end of the day it’s as easy as closing the tab to get it out of my life :p
