  1. The 'wake up at 5 a.m.' advice skips the part where you actually went to sleep.

    It also forgets the three hours you spent replaying everything you said wrong in a conversation six years ago.

  6. [P] I know it might be terifying, but voting shows that the moral are a tiny minority. A thousand moral voices on social media might seem like an infinite number, but it's a speck compared to the allistic tribal hyperconforming majority who're hungry for some atrocity.

    We live in a world of mostly monsters. I'd love to be wrong. But the slayers are hungry for their meat, and it'll be worse than anything I can imagine.

  7. Moving to a new instance is a sly excuse to write an #introduction post (I never did one before).

    I'm Drew, pleased to meet you. I'm male, middle aged, child-free, a Brit but don't feel like one, living in 🇵🇭 for the last few years. I'm #neurodivergent with quite severe #CPTSD. You can ask me about it, I'm trying to get better at discussing it. I'm married, I work in #tech and I love animals and nature.

    Almost forgot! I have a single-page personal profile website at drewtowler.me which expands on all this.

  12. [P] Atrocity is around the corner. And it's going to be the worst yet. Gaza is just an appetiser.

    Let's see if I'm wrong.

  13. [P] You're delusional. Atrocity is the end-point. It's only once the monsters have had their fill of out-group meat, and they feel sated, does the allistic tribal hyoerconformist majority back off. History repeats this over & over. I'm scared for LGBTQ+ people, neurodivergent people, disabled people, and obviously minority ethnicities. Right now the allistic majority is building to critical mass, they're hungry for meat.

  14. [P] Every. Single. Fucking. Time. It's happened, because the tribal hyperconformist allistic majority wants it to happen. I see monsters, I call monster. Tribal hyperconformity can only lead to atrocity. If it isn't gas chambers, it'll be bioweapons, or they'll actually find a way to melt people. There's no excuses to be made. If you don't think allistic tribal hyperconformity won't result in gas chambers or worse?

  15. [P] They all want ICE. The allistic majority wants thugs pulling legal immigrants and long-time citizens of other ethnicities out of their homes, to shove them in squalid detention camps where they're treated as non-human. Where the fuck do you think that escalates to? If you know your history, it's fuxking gas chambers. "That'll nsver hapoen!" has been said repeatedly about this racist rise, and guess what?

  16. [P] If there's one thing the past decade has made clear—with the rose of Reform, MAGA, and the rest of the far-right—it's how tribal, cruel, selfish, greedy, hyperconformist, and actually stupid the allistic majority is. This majority is voting FOR rape, FOR abuse, FOR genocide, FOR fucking melting people. They're always secretly hoping for gas chambers to kill the out-groups with. Stop making excuses for monsters.

  17. [P] "Turkeys voting for Christmas" is tbe best, most apt and on-the-nose description of Reform voters I've ever seen.

    "Ugg! Me Mr. Ugg! Me racist 'cuz da imm'gunts make prublems, make Ugg poor."

    No, Ugg, all of those problems will only get worse under Farage. Your problems are caused by the very rich, not "the browns," but you're a stupid caveman and you don't know anythig. You're about to get refuk'd like the rest of us.

  18. I’m trying to get better at juggling both hyperfocus while painting/making stuff and self care and that tightrope is really really challenging for me to walk! 😂 I keep falling off, dammit! 🤣

    Why is this so hard?! 😆😅

  24. If your negative thought is genuinely just describing how things are, with no interpretation on the facts — that's not something you need to talk yourself out of. But if it's the way you're thinking about something, there might be some flexibility in that. 1/2

  29. [P] I wish this was the kind of world where Reddit could be hit witb a big criminal investigation. For anyone who knows how to find the evidence (age of account, posting pattern, homogeneity of language across "different" accounts), it's 100% obvious that astroturfing on Reddit is ubiquitous. And the Reddit founders encourage astroturfing because they profit from it. They do all they can to enable it.

  30. @actuallyadhd @autistics

    Well, around 02:10, after opening NewPipe, downloading an ambient noise video & the app not giving the option of playback I tried Podcast Addict, the only viable option out of the 3 possible apps it offered for playback.
    Okay, let's try for sleep, kill screen as any light just keeps me awake (my eyelids are like tissue paper). Problem, killing screen kills playback 🫩😡.
    I'm too tired, will look into what options to tweak in the morning or whenever.

    I doze till about 04:30 as I need to roll over to relieve my bones & whatever else is aching. Try getting back to dozing... 30 odd minutes later, my body is deep frying me from the inside 😩.

    Okay, I'm awake but I don't like it.
    Can't believe how quickly I went thorough my notifications on here, replied to a few & back scrolled Home feed to see what I missed.
    ...

    So now, what do I do?
