This is my second attempt at re-joining Lemmy after experiencing the same brother.

It sucks having to moderate yourself online so hard when you're passionate, genuinely care and want to share the uncomfortable truths of the world, but the consequence of a 24/7 deluge of negativity when you have a life to live is just not worth it hey.

I've been a bit of a hermit online and offline since the pandemic, 2026 is my year to try to strategically begin getting back out there!

I believe in you homie. But sadly this is my form of social interaction cause I work hardware security in secure facilities, which means I vastly work alone. Well this and Uber, but the people getting Uber in my state, are usually not people I see eye to eye with politically. So I usually just talk food, or about my kitty Furryosa.

Well for your sake I hope you find some choice places you can enjoy and be yourself online <3

If you're into sharing pics of Furryosa, Pixelfed could be a good one to check out.
