    You say that, but I remember getting into it with people in college and going back and forth straight into the AM because we couldn’t stop fueling one another.

    Couldn’t get enough of that level of socialization. It’s one of the things I miss most about the university experience. Made a lot of really good long term friendships during that time, too.

    Horrible for hooking up, though.

      Check if you have a local makerspace or hackspace. They tend to attract a similar crowd. My local one is definitely majority neurospicy.

        Oh definitely. My local DSA group has quite a few of them as well.

        But it’s a different game when you’re not on campus, surrounded by people your age, spending hours a day in class surrounded by collaborative peers. If I could quit my job and spend all my time on hobbies (and everyone else could, too) I’m sure my dance card would be fuller.
