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.
Kinda stupid thought maybe. At least I sort of know that this life will remain at this level of shitty. What if I come back to another life and it's even fucking worse or we live back in some primitive time in history. Like spawning in the modern age you have to admit is somewhat lucky.

I don't have any strong beliefs in the afterlife, just curiosities. Sometimes I wonder if the pain we suffer is a mirror of the pain we inflicted in a previous life. Karma and all.
I think there's pros and cons to modern life. Better access to food and medicine of course, but also being condemned to being a capitalistic wage slave unless you're very lucky. I dream often of living in ancient times, like as the celts or the ancient indigenous Americans. What would life had been in a semi-tribal society, would it be more full of love and meaning? Despite the lack of healthcare and "guaranteed" meals? I've been reading a book on the Hopi origin mythology and their idealized vision of living with the earth in harmony is so attractive, and I think there would be less (however of course, not without) suffering.

Agree yeah I wonder if earlier societies would have been less lonely. But then I start telling myself that i'm just romanticizing it and that it would have been far rougher just to survive back then. I think like when ted said that the industrial revolution was a disaster he was getting on to a feeling that a lot of people have now about the loneliness and isolation of modern times and the lack of power we feel over our lives. People then always point to modern advances in medicine and access to food but it's like well we kinda would want both no? Maybe this is just a short transition period and we are just experiencing the growing pains of the whole thing.
