Cope I replace friendship by lurking subreddits of groups that are alien to me

[cleftpalatecel]

How pathetic is this? I'm waiting out a suspension from uni rn with no job telling my dad I'm "studying" when actually I'm obsessively lurking subreddits of subcultures that I find bizarre because the people there are also considered a fringe group yet are so alien to me. r/mtf, r/ftm, r/truscum, r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2, r/femcelgrippysockjail, r/sillygirlclub, r/sillyboyclub, r/196, r/autism, r/suicidewatch (last two are relatable tbh), I'm just fascinated by these people and not even hateful towards them. I feel like an anthropologist or some shit, idk. It's probably because all my "friends" cut me off due to mental issues and my dad is the only person I talk to, which is also why I'm already addicted to this site 1.5 days in.

Feel free to point and laugh.

I think if you lurk r/mtf it might just mean you're a tranny

I swear I'm just fascinated. I'm the same species as the people who post there, 99.9% DNA similarity...and yet our minds could not be more different. It's wondrous to me.
