Not requiring, just one of several awful options!

I went to and organised Reddit meetups. One of the people who went didn't believe me that I'm Swedish (we were in Scotland and despite growing up in Wales I have an oddly posh English accent). She phoned her Swedish friend to catch me out, which didn't work, much to her chagrin. Said friend demanded a photo of me as payment. We started talking a little while later and it became immediately apparent that we were a perfect match. We've been together for thirteen years.

Don't go to things to meet a partner, but to build the connections that might bring you into contact with people that might be interested. In the meantime you'll have fun (hopefully), improve your social skills, and generally avoid dying alone.

I dredd to think what you tell people when you've actually broken the law

Are you speaking as someone that struggles with this or are you speaking on behalf of a hypothetical neurodivergent person?

I would have thought it was implied that my comment was directed at neurotypical people (insulting neurodivergent people for social interaction issues? Is that what you assume of me?).

Readers that cannot tell that I'm being sarcastic need to be supervised near crayons.

Giving bullies what they demand usually works out super well.

Not really, no.

Whilst I don't eat mouldy bread intentionally (as in, it will have happened without me noticing on occasion) what's the actual potentially bad thing that happens if one does? Specifically?

It was the forum replacement thing that baffles me.

It's a chat client, not a community building tool. It's the round peg square hole thing that baffles me.

I cannot fathom the popularity of Discord. It's IRC with rich media support - what good is that as a replacement for non-ephemeral communities?
