  • Hey Guest,

    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.

Do you Meditate?

Also, have any of you tried/heard of reverse mediation? Or read the book?

Reverse mediation is a practice where instead of calming your mind and removing the negative thoughts, you introduce your real life challenges into your practice and focus on challenging situations. It's about reversing the natural tendency to avoid or resist difficult emotions or situations, instead inviting us to go into them

Basically the concept is that from a meditative state you can transform negative feelings into opportunity for growth and liberate yourself from the suffering. If you already meditate this probably makes some sense to you at least lol
