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.

I think this Renee Good thing has sincerely broken my wife's brother's brain. He was never a Trump supporter, but not really political, either, kind of a vague lib. But after this, he's been sending meme after meme and clip after clip to my wife talking about how much ICE and cops suck and stuff, each one getting increasingly rage filled.

Anyone else got any fun examples of seeing your lib, or even chud, friends, family, or coworkers getting increasingly radicalized? (In a good way, this is /c/bloomer)

that I was and have been correct about this stuff, but also that they are now arguing it with their liberal siblings is very funny to watch

It cracks me up every time when someone meets me 25-75% of the way and then I see them get absolutely stonewalled by a liberal who hasn't moved an inch (yet?). It's like "you see now what I've had to deal with?"
