I've been ip banned on reddit for years

I don't think people here party hard and listen to Bathory

Like I've probably spilled more than you guys have drank in your life

I actually have stuff that's even less relatable up my sleeve

I've been attending metal shows my entire life and I don't think I've ever seen any transphobia. OP doesn't know metalheads

People just seem to use me and I have trust issues

Never recovered at least thus far anyway

Well eventually there will be so many normies it becomes reddit then we just have to start over again lol

I wish I could learn to nap. I'm 30 and I've never been able to do it. Even a 14 hour flight there is no way I'm going to nod off even for a second

I would say it's quite literally because a lot of people who post on lemmy are intelligent and intelligent people pay close attention to the problems in the world aka "woke"

Saw a tshirt lately that said "politics is dumb but very important" lol

And if you tell other normal people to come here eventually this place will become less extremist

Just throw those people in the trash with your block button man, you have full power here

Yeah it's really easy to lose the plot sometimes. Lately at my desk at work the words "worthless animal" and "I trusted you" are what the voice in my head won't stop shouting so I'm slowly picking up the pieces with the forest routine again and trying to get that noise to ease up a little bit

With info overload these days everyone struggles with this to some extent I do believe

For anyone with a noisy self destructive brain like mine appears to be, I got pretty good at mindfulness by walking the exact same route through the forest the exact same time every day and by just sort of casually observing the sights and smells which somehow became a mental association with "these thoughts are normal and OK" including those extremely dark ones if you know what I mean

Basically any time a bird is making a sound now I can just enter a meditative sort of state where thoughts just come and go regardless of how evil those thoughts are. I changed the angle of my skylight window in my bedroom so that it acoustically catches the sound of the birds on the tree to my east, and if you know birds they sort of go sit on the same branch and sing the same exact bullshit on a somehow perfect schedule

Lately going through the darkest period of my life. When I manage to finally fall asleep I wake up from horrifying nightmares but there is a bird that will sit on my skylight at exactly 4am and he gets me back to sleep ez and I stay asleep

I used to have a hummingbird couple that I chilled with on my balcony every sunset but unfortunately they passed away this year

Sleep deprived ramble but maybe there's some wisdom here

You need to practice mindfulness. People should be OK with 10 minutes "staring into the void" and this is exactly the damage phones did to us

Edit: if I really want to look at my phone I open Wikipedia and check out the featured article or maybe the top read of the day list. It's not brain rot and it's not that fun either but it's time well spent

Blame Google, that's what it costs to use their api. Once upon a time geoguessr was free but Google and their infinite money took it away from the few people who even played the game back then

Haven't looked into this but if steam is the exact same game as the web version then it's worth the subscription fee. In fact geoguessr and tidal are the only two subscription services I pay for. Studying the map makes you way smarter

No way, people commonly use that word where I live

Wait what the hell, there's an actual anti tattoo movement in Germany? That's legit hilarious

Dang I haven't managed to sleep in a few days, I won't fuck that one up again though

All I said is it's degen behaviour

You are free to look up the word prestine by the way, which literally means in its original condition

You sound sort of like an angry republican
