A place for optimism, relentless positivity, anti-doomerism, and snuggle sessions.
We're all in this together, and a better world is possible!
This is now also a space for organizing tips for our collective survival as we confront climate change and everything else. Still no doom-posting. We're here to work together, support each other, and boldly face the future.
Rules:
Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct
No doom, no gloom, only bloom. There's plenty of room for doomerism elsewhere. This community is solely for having a positive outlook on the future and spreading good vibes.
Be kind to your fellow users. This also means no arguing in the comm. Arguments and negativity are not conducive to blooming. Constructive discussion is good. No interest-policing. Support your comrades in their joy!
Always share good news. We can't exactly enforce this one, but if you have good news, please share it with us! Keeping happiness and positivity to yourself is the twelfth type of liberalism.
Post your bloomerisms here, whether its some good news you've heard, something nice that you've been succeeding at (no matter how small) etc.
It's time again to share some good vibes!
Hey, did you know that a judge permanently banned troops from Portland?. Sure, that might not stop them, but hey who knows.
on the personal front, completed a half marathon - my goal was to be under two hours, my final time was.... 2:00:23 lol. still, not bad.
more importantly after quite a bit of hustling I now have a part time job managing the "back of house" at an extremely busy food bank....been angling for meaningful local employment for a long time so that's a huge win for me. also just a great and wholesome place to spend time.
2:00:23 is close! Nice!
