Hi comrades and welcome to the second weekly improvement megathread!
I am glad to see that there was a lot of engagement in the first megathread and that people were checking in throughout the week.
Same as the last week, here are some ideas for discussion:
- Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
- What would you like to do next week?
- What aspect of life would you like to improve?
- Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
- If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
- Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?
Good luck to everybody with your goals! 
Congrats on the 2 wks. :) Does the book make you sad? I've been cagey about reading that's very memoir-based bc it can send me spiraling if it's too sad.
I think so far it makes me more hopeful for a potential future that we can all have. Her speeches are good. I'm not even halfway through so I can't really speak fully on it.
Back to me being a hopeless romantic but it tugs at the parts of my brain where I hope we might have a full unity among trans, feminist, gay and other progressive cultures someday(I know Hexbear/lemmygrad and other comrade spaces are super supportive but I mean like the mainstream). I'm cishet and am fully aware of my privilege but am very sympathetic towards these groups and am learning more about their struggles and am constanty learning how to be a better ally. So I think that is why books like this are important to me, even if it might end on a sad note.
It does open up right away with a gut punch so it might be sad in the end.
And thanks!
That is a beautiful image of the future, certainly helps w the spiraling. :)
I don't wanna send you on something that might upset you though. Maybe check some full reviews first if you end up deciding to pick it up.
