NEW blog: it’s not you, it’s me.
How do you know if you’re ready to be #dating? (Or not, as the case may be)
Today’s blog makes me look like a bellend, but hopefully illustrates a point.

If there was a Fedi-Dating platform...
1. what features would you find most valuable?
2. what features do you like from existing dating sites?
3. and what features do you dislike from existing dating sites?
4. what safety features would you need in order to feel safe on the platform?
"I long for someone to kiss and fuck and get high with in Victoria Park at sunset, but as I get older other priorities are becoming important too."
