A place for optimism, relentless positivity, anti-doomerism, and snuggle sessions.

We're all in this together, and a better world is possible!

This is now also a space for organizing tips for our collective survival as we confront climate change and everything else. Still no doom-posting. We're here to work together, support each other, and boldly face the future.

Rules:

  1. Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct

  2. No doom, no gloom, only bloom. There's plenty of room for doomerism elsewhere. This community is solely for having a positive outlook on the future and spreading good vibes.

  3. Be kind to your fellow users. This also means no arguing in the comm. Arguments and negativity are not conducive to blooming. Constructive discussion is good. No interest-policing. Support your comrades in their joy!

  4. Always share good news. We can't exactly enforce this one, but if you have good news, please share it with us! Keeping happiness and positivity to yourself is the twelfth type of liberalism.

Think I might make these bloomer posts a weekly thing again. Do you guys think that's a good idea or would that be annoying? I just think it's a nice thing to have a place where people can share good vibes, considering how there is quite a lot of terrible shit going on at the moment I think people should have a place to get a break from that.

Heyo! I know I used to vent a lot on my doomer posts here but I got some nice stuff going on.

  1. I started exercising more. Other people telling me that I apparently got more muscle which is good. Also my mood is better.

  2. Half-moved to Linux recently (fuck you Adobe and ToonBoom), doing dualbooting. I've been mostly daily driving CachyOS and everything just flies. Thankfully I got some assistance installing stuff.

  3. Reconnected with an old friend, making my irl friend count to a not impressive 1. He's a bit too much of an outdoors person unlike me but he's cool. He even texts me first to check on me which I don't get a lot. Though i do have a lot of online peeps that I know of. I just struggle connecting with people irl. I just feel like an alien or a robot with some social cues.

  4. Gonna get some experience storyboarding and writing for an indie animated short with some peeps! Gonna start working on It as of next week.

  5. Here (Serbia) the blockades are hopefully ending soon after being a nothingburger for a whole year. Turned to electoralist bullshit. So I can actually get back to doing college stuff (even though I'm not a fan of It).

  6. Got a driving license recently!

That's kinda It.
