  • I would probably follow beehaw elsewhere as long as it was safe to do so for me. I think this is something important to keep alive wherever it may be. I also think for anyone who wants to stay on lemmy and would miss beehaw, if you can create your own. It may not be the easiest thing thing for everyone to do but I’m sure there are more people out there who want a space that has the simple fundamental rule of be nice. We need more of this online and honestly trying to keep it within the confines of lemmy alone doesn’t make sense. Spread kindness and let the spirit of beehaw grow far and wide.










  • I’m in the US and elections coming up next year isn’t helping, but politics wise without getting into it, there are massive issues all over, as far as I know right now especially in Canada, the UK, Australia and I think Italy too. I’m sure there’s more than that. We’re all on the edge of our seats especially folks in any minority groups waiting to see what happens and it’s a lot of constant stress. I think it causes people to be more likely to snap and argue as well, not to excuse it but I dunno. I’m sure there’s a lot of things going on all at once too.


  • I don’t know if this is a direct answer to what you said exactly but over the last decade give or take the whole of the internet has seemingly been getting more toxic, argumentative, unable to have a back and forth discussion, and it seems like it’s happening out in the world in society more too. I think things are getting to a breaking point in a lot of different places and I wonder if that has anything to do with some of it. There’s a lot of people who can’t manage to simply be nice to each other, so it’s kind of disheartening at times.



  • It was a rocky start but it’s going better now and I’m looking forward to the weekend! :D This week has been a shining example of how when things start to pile up and feel impossible, giving it a little time can really turn it around. When things are not going well it really helps to remember that things aren’t stuck like that forever. Sometimes it feels that way but it’s not true. Not sure if anyone else experiences that feeling but unfortunately it is one that seems to keep coming back.
