I like this place,
0r maybe it’s just refreshing to have a social media devoid of any actual social repercussions,..
BUT nevertheless i'm grateful to see people in all their forms.
you! mysterious stranger! you are beautiful in all your judgements and blessings and doubt and talent, it is a blessing to see you. even in a performative setting, I feel it is an honor to be here and see from this life what others have learned and lost.

i'm new!! hi!! stumbled on here after seeing someone on twitter mention this in passing!! this is a very lovely place. everything has been so cruel and hateful and mean lately. you'd think given how hard life already is, warm and kind spaces like this would be more common. oh well. it does make things feel more special :)
i'm very shy, and honestly, nothing cool goes on in my life so i doubt i'd be able to rec interesting things. after struggling with my younger years, i feel like i'm only now starting to find the things i like and catching up with everyone else :o especially in terms of art and books and film and games and... everything!! this is kind of embarrassing to admit (it's okay though because anonymity is awesome), but i am only now forming a personality!! it's nice to be here though. very good vibes. lurking here is just as great because it doesn't feel like "doomscrolling"
nice to meet you all!! hello!!

i keep finding myself feeling embarrassed when i post a lot on this app, but im having fun!!! and the genuineness of humans in this weird little online community is filling such a void in me that began to stop believing that people really are Good and Kind.
in other words, i’m grateful for everyone here and i’m going to keep flooding this silly little app with my silly little words

Here it is. Ol' six-hundo. It's hard to believe I've been on here for the better part of a year. There have been many things that I assumed would remain constant throughout life: friendships, some jobs, Kudos granola bars, Twitter, non-fluorescent presidents, the list goes on... But in the past 5 years or so, it seems like an accelerated impermanence has crept in. Maybe it's the breakneck pace at which we're consuming and shitting out information, culture, and technology. Maybe it's the pandemic. Maybe it's the dire state of global politics and the various societal breaking points we have lived through. Or maybe this is just what getting older feels like. Whatever the case may be, when something consistent comes along these days, it tends to stand out, especially when everything else in the world seems to be happening faster and harder.
PI.FYI has been such a welcomed change of pace in my online life. This place has become a sanctuary for my mind, and it has been a privilege to come to that realization alongside so many others who feel similarly. The genuine connections made here have made me more optimistic too - it turns out people really do just like helping people without using that as a pretense for scoring social points or for outsized recognition. There's no nagging urge to consistently post to stay relevant, and I don't feel like I'm needlessly marketing my own thoughts. Even when I take a break for a while, it holds a little place in the subconscious wilderness of my brain like a curious little creature sitting by a river of experiences, jotting down notes of life's little wonders, excited to share what it found later.
I don't know where I was going with this, but I guess my 600th rec is an homage to this new constant in my life. One that has stuck with me through weddings, funerals, and dental appointments. A passionate little place where people are just excited to talk about the things that bring them joy, all while Tyler and the team turn wrenches, patch leaks, and everything else they do behind the scenes to make it all possible.

omg I hadn’t read in years and all of a sudden I listened to this audiobook(amazing amazing voice actor) and have been reading ever since-I definitely recommend. /a man wakes up in a spaceship with no memory of how he got there…/
OR
The Count of Monte Cristo by Dumas
if you’re feeling more historical-it’s very long but the revenge/romance/drama is unmatched and it kept me interested
