I’m a bona fide alpha male. Imagine Joe Rogan but more buff and with additional BDE. When I talk everyone listens. I was the star of every sports team I’ve been part of. I can lift a motocycle above my head and then ride off into the sunset on it.
Usually posting fit-pics on insta but I accidentally clicked a link and ended up here.

I’m fairly non-nerdy, though I like reading fantasy and scifi.
But other than that, nope.
I’d say I fit neatly in the Dork category. At least, that’s what my imposter syndrome would have me believe.
No no, I am stupid too.
I am a hollow circle around the nerd core.
I don’t fit in any category :DImposter syndrome ❤️
That’s an intelligent analysis of yourself, a supporting evidence that you fit in the nerd category.
Gemini likes to tell me that I’m good in the emotional intelligence area. Haha.
I’m not. College dropout waitress married to an artschool dropout chef.
I don’t believe you, you use Lemmy. You are at least somewhat nerd.
Ah, but I’m on the anarchist instance.
So your reasoning that you’re not a nerd is that you’re an anarchist? I got some bad news for you…
I’m on a piracy instance and I dont pirate.
Well, anymore. Should really update my music library instead of streaming it.
lol anarchists can be nerds
Let me explain you how the Red-Workers-Movement of 1922 in the Oblast-Utbackya had this structural issue in their organization by the theory of famous late 19th century analyst.
So a political nerd lol
With politics, I think the term you want is “wonk”.
Not necessarily, a wonk (e.g. a policy wonk) is not analytically intelligent but may be emotionally intelligent.
A nerd and a wonk may have the same area of interest, but different approaches.
Who else does research on obscure social media platforms because they are fed up with mainstream surveillance capitalism social media.
Edit: If to be a nerd is to have a strong interest in something particular then everyone should be a nerd because having interests is awesome.
I’m not smart enough to be a nerd.
Yea I’m just weird
Nerd does not imply smart
Not only. There are also some communists and furries.
No.
Next question.
I’m on the border of nerd and geek
I already did
Is this a Futurama reference?
Yes!
Excellent! I like it.
Is that the guy who had sex with his socks on?
Everyone is a nerd about something. That’s how interests work in general: you only ever get called a nerd for being interested in something that others aren’t interested in, but they’re also interested in stuff you’re not interested in, so…
I think you’re mixing up “nerd” and “geek” here.
Eh, I see them as fairly interchangeable. There’s some subtlety in the difference between them, but.

Man, this is 11 years old already?
Noo…
I’m writing a book on adaptations. I wouldn’t consider myself a nerd, but writing a book about adapting works from one medium to another is very nerdy.
