Everyone has something they can't stop themselves from nerding out over - but often it's hard to find people to talk to about it. So go ahead, share your interests, and tell us about them!

At the risk of sounding edgy: Sex.

I live in the US. Sex, even just plain boring vanilla sex, is such a taboo topic. Everyone's uncomfortable about it, and that sucks. I think it's interesting, and fun, and there's so many things to talk about from actual activities to social constructs and more.

Whenever it comes up, I nerd out the same way I would when talking about a game I am currently obsessing over.

I have been summoned.

Same! I have bad ADHD and my hyperfixations are often sex related.

Sex? Is that some type of cake?

Cake is involved is you subscribe to the slang term referring to butts. Love eating cake. Especially if it's frosted. 😋
