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'll share sth which idk if it meets the criteria but I'm stoked that I scored a rare yaku in Mahjong, it's called triple triplets (???) sanshoku doko (three colours same tripple, i.e. three sets of three of the same tile across the three suits). Here I made it with three triplets of the 8 tile in each suit. It's not a 'rare' yakuman max value hand) but it's uncommon enough that you'll see it just as often

The cold breaks tomorrow and it'll be in the mid-40's so I'm thankful for that.
