People have a right to exist and society has a responsibility to care for those who cannot work. The whole point of society is to ensure the health and well being of their members as a WHOLE. If a society cannot or will not care for their elderly or infirm then that is a failed society.

Melancholy. It just sounds so nice. It rolls off the tongue so well and it's just a beautiful word.

I don't blame you. All that's available nowadays for men to reach out is absolutely inundated with horrible horrible people and ideas. This is meant to be a space where those people aren't allowed to fuck it up for the normal people who just need someone to talk to.

My buddy used to have tarantulas and while I fucking hated and was scared shitless by them, they apparently had recognizable personality quirks and habits according to him. Shiver Creepy little bastards though

Birds. Though her favorite thing is also birds. This...can create issues.

Ah well, unfortunately the community name is set, there's no changing it after it's created. Maybe I should've made it more searchable but hopefully we can spread it by word of mouth enough where it'll take off. Also I kinda wanted it less intimidating clinical sterile sounding and more just a homey place where people can feel safe to talk openly, just a li'l reprieve from the outside world.

Connect is wonderful! Posting from that. I don't know if they have an iOS version but I'm on Android. Very much like RiF, feels familiar

I don't like religions in general and a lot of the reason is the shitty way (some) adherents feel they can treat women and other minorities and it's just a-okay dandy because their magic li'l book told them it's okay. I went to that wedding I mentioned when I was just a pre teen and it really sorta cemented the fact that there's so much bullshit going on with that and just....no one deserves to deal with that. Just love each other and be happy y'all, it doesn't seem so complicated to me.

Well if you give up before you start just because the existing options are shitty then that makes you part of the problem, doesn't it?

Oh shit, thank you, I knew I forgot something

Yeeah agreed. So this is specifically not gonna be about that and if I see any of that shit it's getting nixed.. I just want all these guys who have no where to turn to to...well, have somewhere to turn to. Each other.

 

After seeing so many people feel so ostracized I wanted a community they could feel welcomed in. This is I hope going to be a positive male-orienated space. No alpha male Peterson bullshit, no sexism, no putting down people, this is a space for men to bring each other up and vent their issues they would otherwise be judged for to people who will understand and build them up rather than bring them down.

 

Edit: Nevermind, got it figured, thank you though!
