Extra thread because important!

What should be normal between people seems like heaven.
@PrincessOnome I thinkw e have all been so drained by the internet and the vile interactions we get that when we come to a place like QOTO it really is refreshing. It doesnt even seem real its too good to be true.
Serious #introduction time.
I'm writing from Pozzuoli, a town on the shore near Napoli, in Italy.
I started studying physics at Federico II university three years ago, and I'm one year away from getting undergrad.
Answering @freemo right now I'm into mathematical physics and I'm enjoying it but I'm yet to specialize in anything, so I could say "everything" as well as "I don't know"!
Before enrolling I was tinkering with electronics and programming. In the spare time in high school, that was a lot, I discovered Linux and FLOSS world, I played with Arduino and spent my time on Istructables.
I've been practicing aikido since I was a child, now I'm 21.
I think you guessed I like to learn, every year I sign up to something new I never did before, and most of all that I never thought of myself doing. This was archery year: I practiced once a week with prehistorical and medieval bows, I built my personal bow with my hands and I go around practicing.
I'm horrified about how the main social medias are purposely distorting people's perception of reality, that's why I'm here.
I give my help in a community that's reviving an abandoned place to make it a common good. It's a widespread practice in Italy but the current government is pretty hostile.
That's a lot for now,
hope to hear about you soon,
Mariano
@commandelicious And we even laughed about it :)
@freemo @PrincessOnome
It was, back in the day, more a less a test for me. Took me ten years man :D
@PrincessOnome Its a group effort. I am so proud of this group!
@PrincessOnome @freemo
I keep repeating this
@freemo @PrincessOnome
It's really poetic that way.
And it's a very diverse group from all over the world, I love that!
@PrincessOnome Thats because we are smart enough to know that if you show love to others, you will always bring out the best in them. We all want to be surrounded by people who are at their best, so naturally we all want to show love :)
@PrincessOnome @freemo As I keep telling people, I never had a better time on the internet and I am online for twenty years.
@PrincessOnome Beautiful.
Animals make us better people.
@PrincessOnome I'm glad you love it here. QOTO's motto is "be excellent to each other" I'm glad it shows! I hope everyone here is happy and fullfilled as we support and care about each other as we grow.
@PrincessOnome toot toot

I considered becoming a teacher, but dealing with young adults or kids is just nothing for me.
But I like to share knowledge and teach people to do things :3
Hello, I'm new here.
