i haven’t done this yet, but my dear friend meredith has been testing it out. it’s working for her. i’m always going on and on about how badly i want a pen pal, so i’ll approach someone with this soon and report back
Had a friend move away and write me a letter. wanted to repay the favor but they never gave me a return address so I sent an email. Now we’re digi-pen-pals. Feels great typing paragraphs on an email rather than a text that’ll make it look like an essay. Emailing all my other friends now just for fun. “Oh did you get my email? Yeah i got a show this weekend, all the deets are in the email. Check ur inbox.” Come on.
i’ve done this platonically and romantically recently. and both seem to be working out. i love talking on the phone. we should all talk on the phone more often
i wish i could delete tiktok, but i need it for my job. i spend so many hours on that app. sometimes it starts to feed me tarot card readings. they always say something crazy, like “this was meant to find you. there are no hashtags.” it found me through the algorithm. i generally have a high emotional iq yet i can’t help but watch these and experience delusions of the highest order
