I had an extraordinary experience today, but it didn't relate to a hobby or career or political topic. I tried to find an appropriate community but I guess I don't have the right terms. Where can one turn to share triumphs, defeats, and sacred moments?
I talk to my beautiful wife, but she's a neurotypical accounting genius, so I know half the shit I say sounds like a child talking about brontosauruses.
Mom somehow feigns interest and I never fully clue in. Teach a 75 year old woman about kubernetes? Ok. Walk her through upgrading her video card over the phone? Sure! It's only after that I realize she just wants to hear my voice.
Sounds like !chat@beehaw.org (hopefully I wrote that tag correctly!) would be a good fit. I hope to read about your experience there! :) It's not a fun feeling, having something happen and wanting to tell people about it but not really having a good person/people to tell.
