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.

Welcome to the first monthly bloomer megathread!
Once a month I'm going to pin one of these to give people a space to share the good things happening in their lives! It can be something big like international news that brightened your day, or something small like a cool bug you found.
Either way, if you need a place to escape the noise and boost your morale for a second, this is it!
This is a bit of a test to see if people really want a thread like this or if it kind of defeats the purpose of the comm. Feedback is welcome! If you want to be pinged when a new one of these drops, let me in the comments and if there's enough interest I'll make a ping list
The only rule is to keep the vibes chill!

Yesterday I saw a black kitten on campus that I used to see almost everyday in August but that I hadn't seen in a month. It was still very friendly and still likes my headpats.
This month I've started a Minecraft server to play with my gf so that we can do fun stuff together despite the long distance, and I built quite a few farms so that she doesn't have to bother grinding for stuff if she doesn't want to. Also these past few days she's had a few job interviews that went well for some pretty great positions!!! I'm very excited for her!!
I like your boots
Thank you! I love wearing these kinds of boots in autumn, and this year I just started yesterday
