Steven has been a very thoughtful participant in MetaFilter. He's got his own gig, now, which promises to be good.

And, wow, for starters Steven has a very powerful piece about not fitting in as an adolescent.

I can identify. Though it came on at 10 for me. I desperately wanted girls to like me and boys to be nice to me. I tried to pick my best friend based on who was nicest to me, but he wasn't very interesting. My best male friendship didn't develop until I was 22. It's tough out there.
