I'll end up voting for Biden. Not psyched about it, but pragmatically the alternative is so much worse. Might get shit from the ultratankies and hexbros, but I'd rather do damage control than whine about Biden and do nothing while an actual fascist snakes his way back in.
It doesn't feel good. And it isn't good. But this is the reality we live in at the moment.
Alright. I been afraid to ask for fear of getting banned from other communities hosted on their instance, but what is the deal with hexbear? The chat community seems like satire, but it gives off the same kind of vibes as the_donald, just far-left instead of far right. Like, I consider myself a lefty, but their community just seems self-destructive and toxic. Maybe that's the point, though? Honestly unsure, and afraid to ask on their instance cuz I don't wanna get accused of "just asking questions" and banned.
Fellow introvert. Don't really know what to say other than this post tracks. The value of just "being" is really important.
Hope your week is well. And everyone who reads this, too.
Gonna throw in my vote for the tail-end of fall. When it's almost-but-not-quite winter, and every morning is chilly and frosty. There's something really peaceful about the quietness of it. And it tends to be right in-between major holidays, so the break from "being present" is kinda nice, too.
Also tends to coincide with pumpkin spice season. Despite all the recent negativity about it in recent years pumpkin spiced everything is an absolute favorite of mine.
Hexbear almost made me quit Lemmy entirely until I figured out I could just block whole communities. So there's that. Lol.
