How it works:

You’re probably here because you haven’t had a lot of luck with people in real life.

We get that. We haven’t either, and it was because of those bad experiences that we treasure the few or no people we treasure.

But we know there are a few good humans on the planets. It’s just tough to even think of the very good ones as human, when you’re used to humans being meh.

That’s why this is a site that says:

• let’s treat each other like therapy animals instead.

A puppy, horse, or kitten, when raised to be nice, is usually pretty nice. They may be a little mischievous, but they probably won’t be someone you don’t want in your house or yard because they get too violent, or have bad intentions, or something. They will mostly just want to be fed and have attention paid to them. Some animals don’t like to be petted, and many do, so attention of any kind can be good for some animals. Shihtsus were bred to be foot warmers, and so can be uncomfortable on people’s laps. Kittens get freaked out by cucumbers, thinking they are snakes. We all have situations that make us uncomfortable.

So wouldn’t it be nice to have a safe place to talk about things with other people?

Here’s how it works:

Both people agree to have a conversation about their chosen stuff.

One of these people says they have experience with that type of stuff. The other person says they'd like help with that type of stuff

We'll remind you what might be a good type of message to write.
