I don't have a lot of friends in real life. All I got is some work friends, fam & that's it. But I like it like that. Being a loner can be a good thing. Quality over quantity when it comes to friends, always. ^www^ #friends #loners #qualityoverquantity #socialskills #socialbattery #introvert

They came. They stood near the snack table.
They planned 10 exits in their head.

Do you relate to:
✔️ The “bathroom break that lasts 20 minutes”?
✔️ Mentally rehearsing how to say “hi”?
✔️ Suddenly remembering your plants need watering… at 9 p.m.?

Then this one’s for you.
Introverts, unite — quietly, in separate corners of the room.

This evening I felt very much like I'd like to see friends but the idea of having to spend the energy of being in the "presence" of another person was something between exhausting and panic inducing. I've been pushing that social battery hard lately.
It's moments like these when you feel autism as a disability. Like I want to run as fast and long as the others but it's just not happening with one leg.

Social battery: 2%
Me: Gotta go recharge (aka sit in silence and stare at a wall for a bit).

Anyone else hit that point where even small talk feels like a boss battle?

Just blogged! This time about a lovely badge I got sent. A #Spoonbot which decoratively gives an indication of how many remaining spoons the wearer possesses! #opensource #oshwa #spoons #socialbattery

A picture of a Spoonbot badge on my desk. The full colour PCB has a cheeky little robot standing on it with a battery Icon for a torso, this has a bar graph of red-yellow-green LED's which are showing full "spoon" capacity.

An Elternabenden teilnehmen ist ja schon ein Highlight.
Sie zu organisieren und zu halten, macht mich fertig.

Es ist nur einer im Jahr und ich bin auch nicht die Hauptrednerin, aber meine #socialbattery ist jetzt schon ein Stückchen leerer, nur weil wir beschlossen haben, ihn im Februar zu halten.

THE FUNCTION - Painted Doggie Comic (1/6)

Panel 1 of 6: Foxwolf has arrived to Houndmage’s crowded family get-together. She nervously grins at the host. On one side of the doorway is a cross. On the other wall, there is a decorative plaque that says, “In This House, We Praise The Lord!” A sexy lord is reclined between the words. In the lower corner of the frame, there’s a “Person Meter” that’s about eighty percent full.

Not a middle-aged rant per se. But why is the music in 'venues' so loud?

Had my work's Xmas do last night (had to buy my own sarni from Tesco; #Vegan) and now I have a hangover from too many people, thumping music, and yelling to be heard.

My morning's a write-off.

Present for myself just arrived in the post. Set the controls for Low Social Battery for the rest of the day.

A rectangular badge with the words ‘Social Battery’ on, and a slider that you can adjust, which goes from Low (red/sadface emoji) to high (green/happyface) via 7 intermediate stages.

Pretty accurate. 😅

I think my brain is fried. Just sitting in room refreshing mastodon lol. #socialbattery #zero

@RickiTarr We don’t socialize during the week - and the occasional weekend where there are multiple “must attend” events can be enjoyable. BUT afterwards, I need alone time to recharge. Someone else in this thread mentioned their #SocialBattery and mine gets drained in some situations.

Music is an exception. I’m at a big music festival this weekend, and the kaleidoscope of cultures and genres keep me recharged until about 4 or 5pm, when we start thinking about an escape plan for dinner.

Want. #socialbattery

It's been an age and a half since I've bought enamel pins, but when I saw these I had to have them. Both colours each of both forms. (Yes, the indicator slides.)

Woe betide the person who talks to me if the heart/lightning bolt is at the far left red 😠 position!
