for a day. Just a day. So many of you need a break from The Great Wide Online. Take a day off and do literally anything else.
( big edit) Translation for the haters and jokesters in the comments:
spend a day doing something completely new. Get the fuck out of the social media feedback loop that is literally rotting your mental health. You can even do something online and not be "online"!! Hit someone up on a discord server and ask them to play a round of a new vidya game. head to 123movies and watch that swedish arthouse movie from the 60s that a friend recommended. Educate yourself on something that isn't about some obscure Deep Twitter Lore drama.
Give your pets some extra love and attention. Make plans for a houseplant nook in the corner of your bedroom. Look up a weird foreign food and cook it next Wednesday.
It's like we forget how to enjoy things when we're constantly being barraged with doomer posting everywhere.
Yes, i know shit is SOOOOO fucked lmao... but we have to take care of our mental wellbeing if we're ever going to have solidarity and change the world into what we want.
take a break
i was de facto logged off all day yesterday because i was too busy vomiting my guts out into the toilet because of alcoholism
ironically i still have a healthier personal life than like 90% of people here
I saw your name, and read it as mine, and was like, "I thought I was three weeks sober...." You can do it comrade! Shits hard, life sucks, but things can get better.
:Care-Comrade:
Good job on 3 weeks sober!! <3 We have the recovery comm too on here if you ever need a place to share your struggles
This site needs to cater less to all these people who are so online that they refresh this site every 30 minutes throughout the day.
That was a benefit of the old sub, that the algorithm was slow enough so that there were new posts every half day, but made it easy to catch up on what was going on as someone who checks daily for a bit.
The algorithm on here is so fucking fast that it refreshes the front page every hour, and that creates the conditions for dumbass struggle sessions to thrive. Drives normal people away.
I think its because the reddit subs default to sort by "best," which u think has something ti do with the number of upvotes or a ratio of uo to down or some shit. Whereas here its by most active. So as soon as the post isn't getting as much traffic its just gone and replaced by more high traffic post. Which cycles through posts much faster. This made more sense when the forum was smaller but there's gotten to be enough ppl on that it makes things a little chaotic.
I walked my dog. He pooped. I knew he was gonna poop again, so I held on the bag for a while. But he didn't so I threw the bag in the trash can. Then he pooped again. I think he's trolling me.
My dog does this all the time, he poops immediately when he gets outside but keeps a tiny bit in the chamber until we are almost done our walk. Now I just keep a whole roll of bags with me at all times, defeating his advance pooping techniques with my material superiority.
lmao.. nah, my dog's got no balls, no lust at all... he could be a volcel k9 unit
in 2019 I was on a plane and being offline for a day was quite refreshing.
I have not been offline since

who the fuck is scraeming "LOG OFF" at my house. show yourself, coward. i will never log off
Okay I’m back wow that was a pretty crazy experience haha.
Wait what do you mean “for a day”?
I also saw the post about this place on r/acidmarxism and I agree.
I’ve more or less stopped frequenting this place as much just because it’s turning pretty toxic.
Take the grill pill and log out. It won’t hurt
Yes I can. Post has been locked for a bit now tho

For me it’s been logging off and just getting into more shit that I find interesting and that isn’t raising my blood pressure. Right now my big project I’m planning is taking an old 8 foot narrow book case. Adding LED Lights on every shelf, and turning the whole thing into a giant vertical succulent garden for my living room.
You do a disconnect like that enough, it will just get you to get into another project.
Yeah, maybe I shouldn't be doomscrolling so much.
But counterpoint, have you seen the quality of the doom lately?
can confirm, it can help sometimes for some people. logging off, and not actually checking your phone unless necessary for something helps reset my brain a bit. it's not full proof and can be a bit annoying but im a lot more productive and usually appreciate the smaller things logging back on for awhile and also am less dragged down by constant barrage of horrible shit. i just let it go, i have no control over almost anything like that.
