An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
I get a new one every day when I wake up and she's right there next to me.
The day we closed on our house was a big one. Walking inside and knowing "this is our home, I'm starting a life with her" was magical. The first time I can remember since childhood that I felt like I had a place where I could be safe from a mental standpoint.

Playing games with shitty laptops on an old mattress on the floor in my brother's pig sty of a room.
Seeing the gently lit shrines at midnight in Kyoto deep in autumn, red leaves and the moon reflected on a pond. I'm not really fond of Kiyomizu-dera. I like the tiny shrines tucked away at corners better.
Walking the pitch black Philosopher's path also at midnight during the height of summer, scaring my companions away by telling ghost stories.
Dropping into a random empty kissaten run by an elderly couple on a scorching afternoon and having the best ice cream I've ever tasted.
I think... I left my heart in Kyoto and I can hear it beating thousands of miles away every single day.

Somehow I've forgotten most of my good memories, last good times I remember is being 6 years old, playing video games and watching youtube all day which I somehow found fun, having the motivation to read about various scientific topics and practicing my hobbies and enjoying it.
I appreciate this thread OP. I feel like it's hard for me to remember my good memories, so I appreciate thinking about it.
One of the best memories that comes to my mind was in the early stages of my relationship with my current partner. One night we fell asleep holding hands and it felt so cozy and comforting. I miss that feeling a lot.
We're still together, but something changed in me and I feel uncomfortable with physical contact. I hope I'm able to feel comfortable in my skin again.
Family memories. Laughing until it hurt. Movies. Lots of movies and tv series. Spades. Nintendo. Music in the car with family. Festivals. Animals. Oh the animals....
Back when I was cute, dating.
Sigh....
Also makeup. Used to be fun getting ready and going through the hours long routine to go out. Idol was fun while it lasted. Pipe dream. I cherished my possessions of all kinds.
Now all of it is gone. All of it.
