• 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've heard people say there's a huge difference between:

1.) not feeling like life is worth it

2.) being depressed

3.) being suicidal

4.) having undergone a suicide attempt


I would be of the opinion (maybe unpopular) that most "suicidal people" who are rescued have not actually attempted more than once. This isn't invalidating what people feel but from my anecdotal experience, the family members/acquiantances I know who all told me that they had a suicide attempt in the past and still thought about it are all dead. The ones who are alive never really attempted to go through with it in their words but had thoughts (which to be fair people have thoughts about things all the time).

Would you agree with this? I think even in psych wards, actual suicide attempts are very very uncommon.
