When I realized this, it rearranged something inside me: Every time you try to save, help or fix others, you're essentially asking them to hold your fear.
If youโve ever listened to a meditation teacher, they talk exactly like this when you expected them to be more gratuitously friendly. I see no slights here! It was a kind and open reaction.

running codex 5.5 in a loop until it finishes porting mario party 4 to the browser with webgpu/wasm + adds netcode, so me and the boys can play the trace race minigame against each other on our phones. slowly but surely it is starting to make some progress
underrated social graces to make you magnetic:
> notice when someone is physically left out of the group & invite them in
> balance the convo - ask direct questions to anyone who hasn't talked in a while
> be genuinely curious when someone shares
> ask follow-up questions to make the convo go deeper -> what moment stands out? what surprised you?
> introduce people with context, not just names. "we know each other because of XYZ" - gives an immediate starting point for the convo
> offer to help the host with setup/cleanup
> vulnerability invites vulnerability. share something real about yourself
> remember small details from your last convo and bring them up again - makes people feel seen/heard
it's the little things that make all the difference
you got this!!!
