#belonging — Public Fediverse posts

When somebody says to you that they like you, will you ghost them if you do not like them?

Past relationships taught me that...

I am considering ceasing to pursue dating, as I feel that the societal message suggests I should not attempt it.

we leave so that now

we leave so that now 
and then, we will be able to 
dream about what it 

would have taken for us to stay 
in the place where we belonged

Australia’s ‘strategic infantilisation’ by the US is undermining our security in Asia

"We are a perennially anxious nation, seemingly unable to come to terms with the reality of our geographic position. We reflexively identify with faraway members of the Anglosphere, such as the United States and the United Kingdom. But even more consequentially, we outsource responsibility for our foreign and security policy to one great and powerful friend or another. "

Others "view us as an appendage of America’s grand strategy, with little capacity for independent thought, much less action...This may spare our policymakers from the challenge of thinking independently. >>

Why do sex workers report higher job satisfaction than 'respectable' employees? Fromm had an answer 70 years ago. The disease wasn’t neurosis — it was capitalism. We’ve automated everything except fulfilment.

Carrie shares:

✨ How her own social anxiety led her to community building
✨ The surprising power of “quiet communities”
✨ Why true belonging doesn’t require being active
✨ Practical advice for joining or building communities that feel safe and supportive

If traditional social spaces feel draining or just not made for you — this episode might change the way you think about connection.

New Thinkydoers episode today:
For the quiet ones, the deep thinkers, and the socially anxious — this one’s for you.

This week, I’m joined by community strategist Carrie Melissa Jones for a conversation that flips the script on what it means to "belong."

We talk about creating spaces for connection that don’t require you to perform, show up constantly, or play pretend at extroversion.

#Outsports is the next chapter in my #story — it feels like #cominghome.

#UK-based #journalist #JonHolmes has benefited greatly from the strong sense of #belonging that #Outsports offers #LGBTQ+ people. Now he’s excited to be #joining the #editorialteam.

Poll: Most #transgender #people in #US struggle to find #belonging, even in their own #neighborhoods.

#Respondents to the #poll said they could neither #dress or #act as they #felt nor #engage in #publicdisplaysofaffection without #fear of #harassment or #violence.

I invite you to subscribe to my #GlobalConversations YouTube channel where I post recordings of my conversations with #equity practitioners. So far I have posted on topics related to #inclusiveleadership #culturalintelligence and #GlobalEDI. https://youtube.com/@urbanequity416 #EDI #equity #inclusion #belonging #justice

Is it me, but have people returned to Twitter? It seems that I don't see too many people on this site outside of academia. #equity #inclusion #belonging #organizationalchange #culturalintelligence #culturalhumility

Many of my followers will notice I don't toot much about urban planning and I'm ok with that.

This is a fresh account and will have new discussions about, in no particular order, #orgchange #equityandinclusion #belonging #globalmajority #wine #craftbeer #bourbon #inclusiveleadership and #culturalintelligence.

At some point in 2023, I want to be #ProSci certified and in 2024 trained in #CQ. The latter can happen sooner if someone pays for it.

A friend of mine tagged me on a recent #LinkedIn post about White-identifying #EDI practitioners not doing enough as opposed to us who are from the #GlobalMajority. We have been doing this work for a while now and it never seems to be enough to #organizational leaders. Something has to give. If you haven't seen the post, here it is.
