Limestone is a common type of sedimentary rock which I find uncommonly interesting! It's mostly calcium carbonate, which is also what eggshells π₯, seashells π, and pearls π¦ͺ are made out of.
In places where it rains a lot, limestone erodes easily, which results in simply gorgeous landscapes such as:
HαΊ‘ Long Bay in Vietnam
Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar
The Li River in China
Additionally, the world's longest (Mammoth) and deepest (~~Veryovkina~~ Krubera is once again the world's deepest cave, thank you to SockOlm for pointing that out) cave systems are both found in limestone formations
Mammoth Cave in the United States
Veryovkina Cave in Georgia/Abkhazia/Russia (disputed territory)

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
sadposting, suicide
Well, we're suicidal again. We had hoped that it was finally gone after starting HRT, and it was for a time, but looks like we are right back where we started mentally. *sigh*Maybe it's just due to a bunch of traumas getting triggered today, but we doubt it given it's been like this for the last week or so and it seems to be getting worse not better.
We've also had to come to terms with the fact that trying to have a community is futile. All attempts at doing so have proved pointless and a net negative in the end. We are just too good at making everybody hate us we guess.
We guess that's kind of why we are posting this here, don't really have anywhere else to go. No community to be had. All of the friends that say "If you need me I'll be here for you" are nowhere to be found, as usual. We don't blame them, we are too much to handle and we know that. We can't even handle ourselves. Even if they were there they would just say they can't talk about this. spoiler extra suicide and sadposting We really just don't see the point in being alive. Between our many disabilities and trauma we will never be functional, let alone happy. Better off just dying now than going through even more pain just to die later. Nobody would really miss us anyway.
Sorry for wasting everybody's time writing this post. We try and keep it positive but we just don't really care anymore. :::
