I really don't give a shit about alienation. I try to talk about anything and analyze the person I talk to using philosophical techniques. (philosophy is good for good conversation).

One of my best friends is a painter, so I made a good mental exercise of trying to frame my interests in something more broad so I can discuss them with him. e.g. I talk about people creating things from my programming experience and my friend from his experiences as an artist.
