Most of us on Lemmy are nerds in many ways, it’s part of why we’re on something like Lemmy as opposed to the more narcissistic social media platforms.
However many of us are cool sociable people, or extremely capable in something that others look up to us for, we just have nerdy hobbies or careers or tendencies, what are those traits or abilities that make others enjoy being around us or look up to us or would otherwise be described as “cool”?
Life gets a lot easier when you stop worrying about what is cool and what isn’t.
Took me until college to sort that out. And that was 40 years ago so I have more not caring than caring in my timeline. That’s a good thing.
