some tetris effect nonsense is happening where i keep trying to parse every person around me as if they were a vibecamper
Conversation
spent a *lot* of time trying to figure out who was sitting in that group of vibecampers 100 feet away

it is kinda nice to defaulting to assuming that literally every human being within eyesight is someone i could walk up to, introduce myself to, and make friends with

I noticed this had had a big effect on me the day I emerged from the building: I saw a stranger and I didn't pre-reflexively parse them as "potential enemy" but, rather, as "potential friend". This was new, baffling, disorienting, but so good.

Strange after-effect of @tpotvibecamp is my default assumption of people’s well-intentioned-ness going up by some amount: more smiling at or saying hi to strangers, more sharing on personal matters unprompted, etc
