An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
I abandoned this illusory identity a long time ago, there's no one to be loved or hated, the self is just a bunch of flesh, bones and subjective definitions/concepts.
This is funny because I do love me!
I've always been called "too full of myself" or "egocentric" because of this.
Still!! I always thought I am an amazing person. I have an average life, I do great at my job, I get along with everyone because I am quite a people-pleaser but not enough to be a pushover, y'know?
I did well in school, I do great in college, I only have one year and half to go and I will graduate… But I still want to CTB.
I love being me, I love my parents, they did a great job raising me… they weren't perfect, they made mistakes (as we all do) but they did the best they could with what they had.
Even with all that, I still want to CTB. I just don't find life enjoyable, there's nothing to look forward to. I get these thoughts in my head all the time and they just won't stop… I've had them for 7 years now, tried everything I could think of, took lots of meds. I feel like the only thing I truly look forward to is CTB. It seems shallow writing this now but I feel a bit insecure sharing more about myself than this
Long answer, I could never love myself because to love something is to accept it in it's entirety which I am physically incappable of doing. I could never love myself because I hold such an utter disdain and disgust for the body I inhabit and was born into that no amount of time passing has ever shifted me from this view. I love others and things that I like doing because I've always been someone to wear my heart on my sleeve when it comes to my emotions.
I absolutely loathe myself for the dumb mistakes and rash decisions I've made over the course of my life and i'm constantly belittling myself for every little mess-up and perceived flaw. Despite all this though, I don't think I'd ever want to change who I am at my very core.
No I rly dont and havent for some time, I guess I am predisposed to dislike myself, but then most of us have self doubts, just some are better at hiding it than others I think
I do. I like even the parts of myself which I know infuriate other people.
I have been othered for such a long time that it became easier to turn the rage and the disdain outside.
