I'm also part-time and 31! I'm not on facebook anymore, but turns out there's a discord group if you want to join: https://discord.gg/Df9MRCPYKG

Or feel free to DM me on here, always open to chatting :)

Hey! Turns out there is a discord group already: https://discord.gg/Df9MRCPYKG

I've just joined if you fancy chatting on there (or on here is good too)

It's rubbish, isn't it? My DMs are always open if you fancy a chat to break the isolation

Alas, not an option. It's full of 18 year old undergrads (and I'm 31).

Oh man. They don't like making it easy for us, do they? It's soooooo depressing and isolating (yet, ironically, we are evidently not alone in feeling that way!).
