I love y’all, don’t get me wrong, but I joined a weekly in-person DnD group a few weeks ago with some friends and that has done more for my mental and emotional wellbeing than this or any other website ever has.
It doesn’t have to be a tabletop group, it doesn’t even have to be a group, it can be one best friend that you’re particularly close with, just get together with someone face-to-face and have a good time. Whether that’s gaming, watching stuff or just plain ol’ talking with eachother.
The point is: Get offline and interact with another human being.
Online friends are great, they are, but even today online shit just cannot compare to actually being around others and just doing…stuff together.
In conclusion: The general idea of “Touch Grass” isn’t just a meme/insult, there’s real truth to that shit.
Oh, get a friend? Just get a friend? Why don’t I strap on my friend helmet and squeeze down into a friend cannon and fire off into friend land, where friends grow on friendies?!
