Super physically exhausted, my heart and stomach feel heavy but empty at the same time due to how anxious I feel right now.
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.

No worries, I was rambling myself. Just getting irritated because I wasn't helped fast enough in a retail setting. Not exactly life threatening stuff. And I value your reply. You're right about how to go about these sort of situations. I find it difficult to assess how assertive I should be, how I should assert myself and in which situation to do this. And I hate being disagreeable, I'd beat myself up if I were too assertive in a situation. So it's constantly trying to assess situations… tiring. But part of the game.Yes, patience and kindness can be construed as weaknesses, and being assertive is seen as a trait that should be valued.
