Is this a Futurama reference?
Yes!
Excellent! I like it.
I don't read enough to consider myself a nerd; I'm kind of ignorant. But... I do like nerd topics.
Noo...
Not only. There are also some communists and furries.
Iβd say I fit neatly in the Dork category. At least, thatβs what my imposter syndrome would have me believe.
I am a hollow circle around the nerd core.
I don't fit in any category :D
Imposter syndrome β€οΈ
No no, I am stupid too.

Iβm writing a book on adaptations. I wouldnβt consider myself a nerd, but writing a book about adapting works from one medium to another is very nerdy.

Rage bait
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.
