    And, it's on us to engage with the curiosity doorknob that others have laid out!The first time I emailed someone on the internet about something they made that I liked, I was rather hesitant about bothering them.The first time someone emailed me for the same reason, it made my day!

    I love this description of the search to find one’s people.But to keep it 100 with you all, nobody has touched my doorknob in a while. How might I improve the odds of finding my people?

    When I heard the term "trap", I immediately thought of XKCD's Nerd Sniping[1]These are more like a beacon or a "dog whistle" (though that word has taken on a new meaning).Attracting like minded people is best done by ignoring your self critic and putting your self out there - a curated interesting personality is not something you can produce by trying hard.[1] - https://xkcd.com/356/[2] - https://xkcd.com/214/
