  • 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.

I thought about my awful life, struggles and hardships, and I thought..

if this was another person I would give them a hug and shower them with kindness.

Why is it that when its myself i am filled with self hatred and anger?

Just a thought. hm

That's how you learn self love, you need to look at yourself the way you'd look at someone else in your situation. We're our harshest critics

Peered in here, not in recovery as much as just making sure I see all my dusty corners before I settle up the ledger.

That comment was insightful for me in some ways. On the one hand fairly upfront, on the other for good reason at times, been harsh with myself. Workin towards staring in to each pain I caused and felt, harshly at times weighing the worth of each moment to myself, just to be sure I have a clear view of who I am by what Ive done, intentions or not. Your comment still rings true for me though I would give another more slack than myself but I know a fair bit of me.

Self love,..that pricks my ears a bit. Cant say I ever really loved myself, was a tool to help others, and dished out some kindness at times, but cant say I felt that for myself, another no problem. Will have to think on that one.

Again apologies as I dont really belong here but thank you for the words.
