wanted to save this rec for something special but what could be more special than celebrating the milestone itself!
i like this app and i like the people i've encountered on it. most of us are strangers or have held no more than 1 conversation in a comment section but some of those simple interactions have made me laugh and cry and even want to better myself. that's crazy! and beautiful! i want to know so many more of u!
keep posting. keep rec'ing. reach 100, then 200, then 500, then the stars

Here it is. Ol' six-hundo. It's hard to believe I've been on here for the better part of a year. There have been many things that I assumed would remain constant throughout life: friendships, some jobs, Kudos granola bars, Twitter, non-fluorescent presidents, the list goes on... But in the past 5 years or so, it seems like an accelerated impermanence has crept in. Maybe it's the breakneck pace at which we're consuming and shitting out information, culture, and technology. Maybe it's the pandemic. Maybe it's the dire state of global politics and the various societal breaking points we have lived through. Or maybe this is just what getting older feels like. Whatever the case may be, when something consistent comes along these days, it tends to stand out, especially when everything else in the world seems to be happening faster and harder.
PI.FYI has been such a welcomed change of pace in my online life. This place has become a sanctuary for my mind, and it has been a privilege to come to that realization alongside so many others who feel similarly. The genuine connections made here have made me more optimistic too - it turns out people really do just like helping people without using that as a pretense for scoring social points or for outsized recognition. There's no nagging urge to consistently post to stay relevant, and I don't feel like I'm needlessly marketing my own thoughts. Even when I take a break for a while, it holds a little place in the subconscious wilderness of my brain like a curious little creature sitting by a river of experiences, jotting down notes of life's little wonders, excited to share what it found later.
I don't know where I was going with this, but I guess my 600th rec is an homage to this new constant in my life. One that has stuck with me through weddings, funerals, and dental appointments. A passionate little place where people are just excited to talk about the things that bring them joy, all while Tyler and the team turn wrenches, patch leaks, and everything else they do behind the scenes to make it all possible.

dedicating my 500th rec on this site to the gift of gab, to spinning yarns, to blathering incessantly, to general blabbermouthery. this one goes out to all you lovely folks on here with deep passions that fill you up so much that you need to tell others about them or they will make you burst. thanks for sharing all of the things both big and small that pique your interest and for letting me gush about mine. keep 'em coming y'all.

i open it, wait for it to load (delayed gratification), swipe the top refs, like them, check out the accounts their from, might follow, see what the people i follow are posting, search up new music or something random (all on my own accord, no algorithm, no doomscrolling) find something actually cool that i bookmark/add to a list to check out (which i do check out), either leave the app satisfied or make a silly little post and then leave the app with no urge to keep scrolling or looking, happy with my time spent

everyone
you have NO business over there. NOTHING good coming out of there anymore.
instead try;
- active listening
- reading a damn book
- giving a shit about other people
- finding whimsy in everyday life
