Small-Scale Question Sunday for July 14, 2024

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

People don't care about poetry. Not sure what's best literature-wise. The bible, I assume, would be among the highest value things.

Is sports a thing at all? I'd generally imagine sports, movies, and politics are the easier things to engage in, if you just want things to talk about, but the last of those requires care. I personally like watching (American) football.

Maybe also it might be valuable to try not to come across as an anime nerd, if you're at risk of that.

Yep, I try to hide my power level and pretend to be a plain, inoffensive sort of dude. Sports is not that popular in my circles. The culture at my workplace is, for a lack of better word, quite feminine, and even men tend to balk at "sportsball". Ironically for a nerd, I used to be quite into soccer, but I've fallen out of the habit of watching soccer matches on my days off some 5-7 years ago.
