There’s so much that’s so bad. Oh my god. It’s like I OD’d on despair.

    Yeah, you definitely dont have to read every post. If you yourself arent in a good place maybe avoid it?

    In any case, people sometimes really really need to vent, and dont have anywhere else to put it, and thats so so fine (I hope so considering I do it lol), but yeah with the vent warnings now you can get a heads up.

        Another trans neurodivergent I see. LOL. Sorry, I don’t mean to diagnose based on a single post, but there are a lot of us. Comorbidities abound, 🤣. JK, none of those things are diseases, despite the propaganda.

        Anyway, yeah, I had to slow myself and only read the vent/seeking support posts if I felt I had the spoons and experience and/or knowledge to offer said support. It’s a great community, but it’s not always good to harm yourself in order to help strangers.

          I let my guard down yesterday and made this strange, autism-revealing post that’d probably be getting like an equal amount of downvotes if that was an option on blahaj.zone.

          I wonder if I should delete it. I certainly don’t want to be known by this.

    I mean, we go through a lot of serious stuff so there’s gonna be a lot of serious posts. And ya you gotta protect yourself. But I’m not sure why you felt the need to call it out like this. If you see ‘vent’ and content warnings you are allowed to skip those posts. No one is judging.

    There’s also filters I forget in which one for good news vs bad news you can use to further curate your feed.

    Be careful out there. Learn your tolerances. Stay safe.
