What brings you happiness or joy in life?

What do you do for fun?

What's one thing you'd 100% recommend to someone brand new to the world?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 hours ago
  • Is modern medicine a scam?
  • Is the current political world trend good or bad?
  • Do you respect transgender people?

Reasoning:

  • Are they conspiracy theorists
  • Are they pro oppression and racism
  • Are they tolerable of people who are seen as extremely outside of the standard norms and recognize that they don't pose a threat to them personally

Shit I can't remember most of them, but the "add 3 enchanted aces" is pretty solid (that is a spectral effect, right?)

As you might be able to tell, I play pretty conservatively. Though that might change once I've unlocked more.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

The one I imagine where every right wing conservative is given a haymaker of justice.

The original tv Batman series was great growing up.

I'm too much of a nerd to understand - is this all a balatro reference?

What is your favorite color?

The nice thing about using that Monty Python quote is that if I don't like the answer, I can then mime throwing myself into a chasm, and thus extricate myself from the situation.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Just be interested and ask them questions about their life and hobbies and see if they do the same.

It's a starting place. The rest depends on building trust and respect and common interests.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Oof. Guys be interested in people i don't know anything about.. In this day and age?

most of my questions would be subjective and may not apply to others:

  • what kinds of plants have survived you taking care of them? how?
  • paracetamol, ibuprofen, naproxen or NSAID? why?
  • what's your funny youtube link you are comfortable to share? what makes it amusing?
[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Ibuprofen and naproxen are both NSAIDs, though?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

loool, good answer!
