View submission: How are we feeling, Helena?
Constantly sick to my stomach and alarmingly isolated. I've spent the last few years here thinking about how I need to find some sort of community, but I'm an introvert with terribly deteriorated social skills now that I don't work a public facing job, and I don't church or drink so I just have no idea where to start and by all accounts here the prospects sound dim.
I don't feel like my time would be put to best use marching around and I have precious little hope in change via government mechanisms to begin with, but I would very much like to get involved in supporting my increasingly vulnerable neighbors in marginalized communities. I'd be happy to start by just ... finding where to find people who don't feel actively hostile to anyone outside the straight cis wasp monolith. I know we're out here!

I think a lot of us are feeling this.
It might be a good idea to have a meetup of some kind. Maybe over trivia at Lewis and Clark?
