@McRocker @deborahh @LonelinessCorps Me too! Used to watch it at new years all the time. :) 🎄&🐥

@deborahh @vlrny @LonelinessCorps Probably my favourite Christmas AND Easter movie 🎄 & 🐣

@deborahh @LonelinessCorps Yes! Let's do: #LifeOfBrianToots

@deborahh @LonelinessCorps oh cool! I'll start over. Been faffing about on my phone anyway.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps do we have a hashtag to follow the livetoots?

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps can you believe I've never seen Life of Brian?Must have come out in that period when I had no TV

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps watching!

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps Ooo I love Life of Brian 🤩 Can't watch today but that's a chef's kiss choice for Easter 😆

@LonelinessCorps T-minus 40 mins to #princessBrideWatch Get yer snacks and build yer pillow nests! Thx to @darrenmorin for making this happen! 🥰

@ShaulaEvans You pose an interesting question. I have seen people in the health professions who have been "taught" empathy but who can only go through the motions, - completely missing the point that to empathise is to see things from the other's perspective and to FEEL their emotions (not always because you have experienced their troubles for yourself - just as the doctor doesn't need to have had appendicitis to know what it feels like). Some of it is hard wired, I think... .@LonelinessCorps

@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps I don't really know you but I just want to say your toots brighten my timeline.

@ShaulaEvans To keep my loved ones and myself safe, I’ve given up much less than you have, but it’s still a lot. I don’t regret it and I’ll keep doing it as long as I have to. But I definitely hear you; this is getting old now…@LonelinessCorps

@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps In acknowledgement and celebration of such a milestone… 🥂

@ShaulaEvans 🫂 @LonelinessCorps

@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps Is there perhaps something you enjoy that you can do that day which diverges from your every day normal or that you normally don't have time for? Something nice for yourself, without any justification beyond that.I'm on my own most of the time, and I'm usually quite happy with that. But sometimes days will feel the same, and so I’ll find something to break that trend. That’s not necessarily an isolation-only problem though, more one of fixed routine.

Based on your posts, Im going to guess you are immuno compromised in some manner, or something in that vein?

In which case, that fuckin sucks and I feel for ya. Wishing you much enjoyment and further relaxation away from the masses though.

Im not in exactly the same scenario, I do go outside for walks, drive and go to stores, but I think I only average an outright social event maybe 3 or 4 times a year now, which is way way down from pre-pandemic where I would go out and socialize... weekly? Easily.

But I work from home now, and have a decent space to exercise in my basement, and have everything I need, and can get deliveries so easy that, tbh, I really dont... interact with people much at all now.

Only literally in the past month did I finally get back into running DnD games again, after nearly a 7 year break, and it was nice to finally do it again but it also didnt quite... feel exactly the same. And Im clearly very very rusty.

There's a certain quiet rhythm in solitude though. I feel more productive now, and certainly focus on my self a lot more, whereas before way more of my energy went into everyone but myself

how?

Are you living in isolation by choice or would you prefer some companionship?

I am sorry...
