I don't know how to quote you, sorry, but here's what I like to discuss:

History and historical events. I like thinking about the causes of major events and what we can learn about them.

Writing in general, how people write and what motivates them.

Vinyl records and 70s music in general. Some of my favourites from the period include Slade, a bit of Elton John and Badfinger.

Yeah, that's a pretty eclectic list, but those are my main interests!

Here's a starter for you.

On the top right corner of your dialog box, you'll find "markup tips." That's a hot sheet that'll show you how to quote, shout out, insert hyperlinks, link tags, and stylize your text.

Dude, if those are your interests, you're in a pretty good place. We have another recent member, historyarch, who has made some pretty interesting history threads. The musical tastes of people on this website are varied and fascinating, so totally dive into bfv's weekly music threads. This place is full of creative types, from writers to painters to musicians.

Don't be a stranger. Fucking pop around and dive into conversations. Every now and again you'll notice some of us have a bit of an edge in our comments, but we're all actually pretty damn open and inviting. Also, if you see an old conversation that interests you, don't be afraid to contribute, even if it is a few years old. Thread necromancy, while not a common art here, is openly allowed.

Wow, wasn't aware of this! Cheers, dude. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised! This site's community looks to be amazing!

Looking forward to discussing stuff! Thanks @rd95!
