This was meant to be the pup reaching out to offer a hug but it looks kinda mystical or something like a wizard conjuring a little pup in their hands

A couple who are coworkers of mine ‘don’t like politics’, don’t vote, don’t watch the news or go out to protests, but they have a big garden and volunteer at local agricultural projects all the time, vegans, build their own furniture and such. When we talk about labor or the rich they are the most radical leftists I know.

I knew someone with a very chuddy look by nature, they would put a cute heart pin on their hat and it totally set it off and helped signal them as a good one.

Is there any kind of art/music scene where you’re at? I’ve found those sorts of circles to contain a much higher rate of based people, and they are also typically more accepting of us with weird demeanors. It can be hard to find though especially if you’re in a smaller suburb. Maybe there’s a pub/cafe that does events that has based people? Like there’s a vegan pub here that has Palestine flags n such and the people there are usually cool and social, if that’s your thing.

Not sure what it’s like where you are but I’m lucky to be in an area now where people are social, other places they seemed more introverted overall and as someone that never really reaches out socially it was a lot tougher to make friends.

A parade passed my house so I checked it out, I was tempted to take a flag they were handing out and light it on fire haha, but I’d rather not out myself that way to my nextdoor neighbors. It wasn’t overly fashy, but it’s not too chuddy an area. There weren’t too many veterans and only a small army reserve band and truck as far as military stuff, and there was at least one performer in a local band wearing a keffiyeh.

Haven’t heard of any sort of protest here today but I haven’t checked out downtown, there have been semi often a small group of people with signs about Palestine near city hall. I don’t generally get involved because there aren’t a lot of people active like that in the area and I don’t want to make myself known to authorities just in case.
