Know Someone who Should Meet Someone?
Lost Something or Seeking one Specific Thing?
Think of this as the best Craigslist’s Missed Connections or Listings Project (but not for real estate). It’s for seeking rabbit-hole-things to learn and for finding other real human beings who are also open to connecting and sharing.
Of all the podcasts and of all the websites, you found this one. You are already vetted. Send in a little something you want to learn and connect with like-minded people about. If you put it out in the world, you just might be seen, heard, and possibly even understood. Check this out for inspiration.

LOST: boundaries
Last seen underlined in a self-help book I was probably reading about how to say No. Yes! I need to do more of that, but somewhere along the way, I lost sight of how to stand up for myself and articulate my needs beyond merely and meagerly pleasing. Going “above and beyond” is a compliment until you’re locked in a pattern of going to great lengths to feed everything but yourself. And then without fail, everyone is hungry. Seeking some unfuckwithable sense of self that knows when to say No and actually mean it.
If you know boundaries or where I can find them, IG @heymegs

Seeking deep connection beyond our well placed costumes and personality attachments. Fun, loving, humorous woman from the north looking for partnership with someone who makes me smile so much my face hurts. Kind and thoughtful is where it’s at! Loneliness is no place for pity, instead how will we use such an opportunity?
Ready for connection @jessitecht

Melomaniac seeking playlists
Want to expand my musical horizons but algorithms make it hard, so here's where I need human help.
Have a playlist for when you take the subway? For when you eat tacos? For when you don't feel like feeling alone? Send 'em over!
Speakers, ears and media players are ready.

PS. If there are stories behind them, would love to read them too

I’m SEEKING CONNECTION. I’m an art student in a big new city and it would be nice to talk to anyone about how to escape a maze, gothic cathedral architecture, and strange foreign films. I really want to know what you think about that too. Hit me up with any thoughts @ultramarine_queen on insta.

It’s hard work maintaining a community board. If you want, buy me a virtual coffee! Venmo @yvesdropper. Thank you :)
