      Upvoting bc you are participating in this conversation.

      And there, we just connected, however little.

      Most of us have little idea how much we all are - connected I mean. Our brains tend to lie. But simply by being here, we are. I’m not even trying to convince you of that, believe it or not, simply stating a fact:-).

      Whether you want it to be true or not, it is a fact! So (now I am switching to trying to convince you btw:-) I hope you can see that! Whatever comes up tomorrow or even later today, that much is undeniable!

      Take care of yourself ⭐ Trekkie ✨ friend. Please, for all of our sakes? Otherwise, how can you be there (support, like financial, encouragement, teaching, etc.) for those who may need you, later on?

      Find somewhere to scream if you need to. I’ve been hitting the gym myself 💪 - maybe it’ll even help, regarding that one issue in isolation of all else, but I’ll take whatever I can get at this point!? 👉😉

        Connected doesn’t mean “not alone”.

        There’s only so much people can get from symbols on a screen, no matter if I know they’re there because of another actual consciousness.

        Please don’t tell me what to do.

    That’s right. We’re surrounded by +70 million bigots who would rather elect a rapist than a woman.

    I love this community, it’s my favourite place on the internet by far

    I know I can’t really do much to help people, but I’m here for you. If you need to chat or vent you can send me a DM.

    I’m not anyone special, but I can be a set of ears to listen. You’re not alone.

    The lemmy community has been helpful to me when I’ve needed it, if I can return the favour I will.

      I get you:-).

      Though the United Federation of Planets would not have come about without the Bell Riots having preceded them. This too shall pass, even if not quickly or painlessly.

      Give yourself room to grieve: for now, things are not okay. And yet, for today at least (I mean from the sunrise to sunset 🌞), it’ll be alright.
