Interesting, respectful, less official space for researchers?

[citrusjava]

I'd really love an online space to talk with other people reading academic texts, studying or doing research. A place to discuss texts, maybe give each other feedback or recommend relevant papers, to share whining and successes if we feel like it. To be less isolated. Research is hard. Writing is hard. To be more connected with things going on in the field(s). I'm working on my thesis, and most interested in fields that have to do with social change, but that's definitely not a must for others.

Would anyone be interested in starting that sort of group for ourselves?

Or can anyone point me in the direction of a group like that, if it already exists?

ETA: If not, and you're willing to share this anyway, it could be really great!
