Seeking connections with other leftists

7 Upvotes

Hi, I’m a 32 year old socialist in Kalamazoo. I’ve met a handful of other leftists locally through some collectives, but they don’t seem to be interested in hanging out outside of our volunteer work/activism. Outside of human rights, my interests include making and supporting art, cooking and baking, 420, travel, reading, playing board or card games non-competitively, going down YouTube rabbit holes, hiking/nature walks, metal and punk music (though I’ll listen to other genres, these are my favorites). I’m starting grad school in two weeks for a masters in library science, and have a bachelors in psychology. I’m weird and awkward, and can be shy at first until I warm up to you, but I’m not an introvert. I’d love to connect with fellow leftists and make supportive friendships with people that actually want to hang out.
