    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

I like myself, a lot. I try to like others as myself (not a christian, but I sympathize with a lot of its philosophy). Try to like the things I do. I'm trying, I swear.

Both Buddhists and Christians see something intrinsically flawed with humans (perhaps the natural selfishness we are all born with). As I understand it the Buddhists try to overcome desire through meditation. The Christians describe a transformation assisted by the Holy Spirit (that few seem to actually take advantage of). Otherwise it may be you have to follow the Stoic philosophy of obtaining virtue by "toughing it out".
