It should be easier to make friends that share your interest because you can join a club or church with like-minded people instead of just being thrown together with "whoever" like you are in career or school. Often when we're young, our "friends" are just whatever other weirdos happen to be at our school or job but we don't have deep common interests. Over 40 there is no longer the pressure to be "cool" because it's a lost cause. You can care about what you care about and others can too.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
