Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

I'm barely but still old enough to know life before widespread internet adoption and cellphones. Grew up in a conservative christian monoculture 99% white town in bumfuck Alberta. If you're genuinely intelligent and don't just believe everything you're told to believe by family, society, church, and government at face value uncritically, you'd still have a high chance of seeing through the Matrix code so to speak OP I guarantee it. You just wouldn't know how deep the rabbit hole goes.
