Small-Scale Question Sunday for July 30, 2023

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.

This one of the few corners of the internet where I can expect both high quality posts for me to read and expect engaged and intelligent comments on what I've written. The fact that we're allowed to discuss topics that most forums wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole is certainly a big draw in itself.

I write because I have something interesting to say, or because I'm bored, but at the end of the day I like writing or I wouldn't be doing so much of it!

Yep, this. (He comments intelligently).

In all seriousness, it's one of the only places where I can have good conversations with people whose opinions are close enough to mine to be interesting but not so close it's dull. With ordinary friends and family either you spend all your time manoeuvring around the badthink filter or they just don't have much extra to add.
