Ulysses hows do you know so many terrible people?
Location, location, location!
I work where I have to meet lots of people that are generally not happy to see me because I'm talking to them about problems their kids are having in class. Also, I have coworkers that I am friendly enough with (it makes the day more bearable) that I just sort of quietly listen to their terrible takes. Also, bookstores and other hangouts around here tend to have very opinionated people that don't hesitate to talk up strangers about their "ideas" (they want to sell you on some "hustle" or startup, both of which are abundant here).
Well, that and having a very chuddy biological family (in-laws are a lot better and that's where I go for the holidays now).
See, I always thought you has some kind of office job adjacent to the IT sector, or something, cause that also comes up a lot in your posts.
Without giving too many details, there's a lot of office jobs in the same building because of how the district is organized, and I share a break room with a fair number of them too.
And because of where the district is, there's a lot of enthusiasm for whatever bullshit pipes in from the Bay nearby.
