As others said, I don't think of it being introvert/extrovert as black-and-white. I think the most effective ways to add qualities of an extrovert were:

1. Ask yourself why do you have to be an extrovert. Several advantages come to mind: More connections, more confidence, better relationships, no stage fear, better small-talk, better dating life etc.

2. Understanding why you don't like being social/going outside. Write about it. Start from the first moment. Is it because of your parents? Did your siblings make fun of you for expressing your emotions/feelings? Is it your classmates in kindergarten/primary/secondary.. etc.

3. Now that you understand the cause, have hobbies that make you an extrovert. Covid examples: Online group lessons, hiking, walking in the park. Post/Pre-covid examples: Social dancing lessons, Meetup.com (weird crowd sometimes but hang in there), group lesson in any topic you're interested in, toastmasters, team sports. Think of something you always wanted to do.

Yes, I started 1-1 lessons with a local teacher about year ago. Now, we're doing it over Skype. Since we already know each other it works well. I feel that real-time feedback is essential for beginners like me.

I feel you. I'm going through the same thing. I'm an introvert who recently became extrovert and I can't do 90% of the activities that made me an extrovert.

Here's how I'm coping:

1. Reactivated my introvert side with

   a) Reading more books

   b) Learning to play music

   c) Online singing lessons

   d) Exercising at home: i) Strength ii) Following through Supple Leopard (book)
2. Going outside once a day for a walk. No exceptions.

3. Chill at the emptiest park on the weekend.

4. Going on a hike during on some weekends.

5. Small talk and saying Hi to random people on the street.

6. Cleaning the house

This article just screams anti-EV. Jalopnik writers have a huge bias towards ICE.

> Cars are a reflection of ourselves, whether we choose to festoon them in explicit messages or not. They can show what we hope for, what we aspire to, not just how large or how modest our bank accounts are. They are how we present ourselves to our fellow human

Ya, not everyone believes that

Is this observed only in humans? I'd like to find out if it's just a human thing or more general like in all mammals
