Simple as that. If you want to know someone better or have someone to go to something with, then ask. It seems like no one wants to get off their ass and reach out to people these days

even to people you think would never give you the time of day. you never know what’ll happen. Some people, even bigger acts, will get back to you. worst they can say is no or ignore you.
approach people at shows or message them
This applies to a lot of things in life. You’ll never know/get certain things unless you ask. so just talk to people…it’s fun!

i have gotten a new fridge and a new stove from two different landlords this way - completely free of charge!! asking as an action opens the door for new connections and perspectives and is a much better alternative to feeling like you have to somehow assert your will on others to make your way through the world safely or successfully. it also is true that people love to share and talk about themselves, so asking is a great way to start out an interaction.
this sentiment is predicated upon the belief that people are good and want to help ! and that we can accomplish more together.
just thinking about this bc i called this antique shop and asked about an item i unfortunately left behind </3 but the person on the phone was more than happy to help, and my day is improved because 1) i tried and 2) i had a positive conversation with another person.
prescribing this as the cure to social anxiety for myself

I’ve been rewatching his shows and falling in love with his work, yet again. One of the coolest men who have ever lived and has inspired me throughout my entire life. If I am ever not singing the praises of this man, something is deeply wrong with me. Now the question is: what is his best show?

It is my belief that so many people would be less lonely if they invited their friends to do their mundane errands and chores together. Dont have time to see your friends, cant afford to go out to socialize? Invite your friends to things you already will be doing and it ease some of the pain of the responsibilities. Or call someone to come over if you made a little too much for dinner. here is what I shared tonight: chicken thighs, fairy tale eggplant, fennel salad, and a nice groleau red wine
