21M nerd looking for other friends

Hello. I am 21M living in California and I’m looking for more friends to broaden my social circle. About me, people say I’m a nerd. I’m a huge comic book fan, and I’m also into Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. Been trying to read other fantasy series but reading can be a little difficult for me. I’m very much an introvert which is why I’m here, and I can be prone to awkward silences so take that into account. Other than that I generally like to listen to other people yap about their own interests. I prefer discord so if we hit it off I would like to move the conversation over there.
