Listen up, you Lemmy champions:

You’re special, you’re enlightened, you’re a bunch of kind hearted, humble champions.

Enjoy your day.

    Gosh you’re right, I’m so special and kind and humble, I deserve to be recognised for how extremely humble I am ♥️

    In seriousness, I have good days and bad days, sometimes I’m grumpy or pretty my anger about a bag thing happening to people get the better of me and go into my words, but I do care about everyone, I do want a better world and an end to bigotry, fascism, racism, techno-feudalism, late stage capitalism, and if I could own my own house this lifetime that’d be great too, for my family’s sake…

    I’m just so angry at the state of things, so disenfranchised, so fed up, and places like this are where I actually see all of the articles and posts about this awful stuff, not to mention actually running in to bootlickers and scummy people. It’s hard not to get grumpy and angry while I’m here :-(

    I might take a break from this stuff next year, I’m not sure yet. Staying informed feels important, but at the same time feels futile and damaging to my mental health, so I might just let myself be ignorant for a while, you know?

    Anyway, thanks for the kind words :-)

      I think the way we consume news has gotten incredibly unhealthy. The rush to know things as fast as possible has lowered the quality of news, and mixing the news into your entertainment feed of the entire day might be weird for our brain.

      I feel you though. There’s shitty things happening in the world and it doesn’t seem like it’s helpful to anyone for me to know about every little instance. I wish I could just get detailed stories for local news, and just get general stats for national stuff.

    Good post, but why post it here? There are a few wholesome themed communities that would appreciate the same words even more.

    The only problem is when there is a person being a shithead it hurts me much more than on other websites.

    While I appreciate your compliment, I just called someone out in a really disrespectful way, so I don’t think I’m all that special or kind hearted.

    But either way, thanksies <3

    If you say so boss, some of us have differing opinions, on just how “amazing” the people of Lemmy are (named after a man who owned the largest personal collection of nazi memoribillia in the world for years before he died, and a sewer of antizionist antisemitism and the cowards who defend them)
