Hang With Friends
Information
Come on in, pull up a chair!
Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Love the cat that blends into the furniture Steph. :)
Tony, my husband doesn't care to have a small dog. We have a Lab. He says the smallest dog he would want would be a Beagle, even though they're not really small. He likes them too.

Great pics. Have cats evolved to match furniture?

Thanks Tony!
My mom used to have Beagles - she would love that picture - I will copy it and share it with her.
Have a great day all!

Hey guys, great dog pics! Love 'em. Getting ready to head out for work. Soon these mad hours will moderate, will have more time for you guys. Until then, this is my favorite breed, have owned 3 over my lifetime. Just adore them. Beagles.

Thanks for the dog pics, guys. I especially like Tab and the animated gif (both of which I've copied). Sleep well, folks.
