sinewyshadow,

Definitely not as many rude people on here.

Do you practice self care?

Hello. Let’s talk about self-care. Who practices self-care regularly? I’ve been making an absolute effort to practice self-care, and it’s definitely improving my mood. I floss, meditate, do qigong, breathwork, etc. Yes, flossing is self-care, take care of yo teefs. What does everyone do for self-care? Bonus question: Where...

sinewyshadow,

I classify anything that helps your mood as self care lol. Drinking tea would be self care. Flossing helps your teeth stay healthy so I figured it counts.

sinewyshadow,

I’m proud of you in your journey to cut back on drinking. You got this. Keep fighting. It’s a struggle, but it is worth it.

sinewyshadow,

N-no? You’re supposed to take the kindness and compassion you show yourself and apply it to others :/

Should I join "free speech" alternatives?

Hello! I’ve been searching for a reddit alternative, and yes, I’ve picked Lemmy and Raddle, but here’s the thing. My morbid curiosity is perked up, and a part of me wants to join the “free speech” alternatives, like Saidit, Poal, etc. What’s wrong with me that I want to join toxic places? I mean, yes I’ll find a...

sinewyshadow,

I’ve thought about being compassionate with these people, but the moment you get called a jewish slur or the n word, all compassion kinda goes out the window.

sinewyshadow,

Maybe it’s just my way of thinking, but if someone says “you can’t do that” I usually stop doing that and shut down, because it’s not allowed. I have autism, so that my play a role in it, but my go to response is to just shut down usually and stop doing that thing or avoid it all together.

sinewyshadow,

I used to hang out on toefur, a straight edge forum (I was straight edge for the majority of my life, not anymore though) It wasn’t a bad site to be on, but it had its moments. I learned the phrase fuckdammit there.

sinewyshadow,

Honestly, I’ve been trying hard to practice self-care, so I believe in loving and being kind to yourself. Im also very left leaning, close to socialist/anarchist ideals/beliefs.

sinewyshadow,

I think you’re right that the anger is misguided. I also think it stems from trauma, but that’s just me. It’s like the old saying “hurt people hurt people” and right-wingers are a bunch of repressed, hurt people.

Besides lemmy, what's another good reddit alternative?

Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I’m curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there’s no hate-speech (that I’m aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let’s hear your suggestions! Thank you!

sinewyshadow,

mbin and kbin are both top notch sites.

sinewyshadow,

Raddle, Discuit, Flingup, etc

sinewyshadow,

Aw, no! Phuks has fallen to hate speech? I’ll have to investigate this. I investigated, and didn’t find any hate speech. Just some dumb jokes. I’m talking they have posts with the N word right on the front page. So disgusting.

sinewyshadow,

I’ve tried to use Gemini browsers, but they are too complicated for my human brain. I can’t remember which browser it was, but it was used mostly for Gemini space.

I'm beginning to come around to anarchism, got any reading suggestions?

I’m digging anarchists’ more hands on, pragmatic approach to politics. I finished The Conquest of Bread a couple of weeks ago and I’m currently working my way through Bullshit Jobs. Any suggestions about theory, praxis, mutual aid, etc. would be appreciated

sinewyshadow,

He’s not an anarchist, per se, but Noam Chomsky is always good to read. I heard Neal Stephenson’s book The Diamond Age is about anarchy? As well as Kim Stanley Robinson’s book Red Planet. Sadly, those are the only two I am aware of!
