Actions produces information. Also, action produces entropy. It produces randomness. And randomness,

that's become so huge? I grew up with a lot of social anxiety and with a speech impediment.

The way I addressed both was rather than

go hide in a corner, I went to the opposite extreme, which is organizing events and forcing
