  1. A little patch of land.
    Bread on the table.
    A dear friend you can talk to.
    A small house you can call Home.
    Rabbits…

    Such a modest dream. And yet so impossibly out of reach.

  6. → AI Is About to Solve Loneliness. That’s a Problem
    newyorker.com/magazine/2025/07

    “[L]oneliness is corrective feedback: a nudge, or sometimes a shove, pushing us toward connection. […] It can push us to text a friend, show up for brunch, open the dating app. It can also make us try harder with the people already in our lives—working to regulate our moods, to manage conflict, to be genuinely interested in others.”

  7. I'm seeing this #ad a lot on #Telegram right now, and I'm just like, #WTF?

    Unfortunately, it’s become the norm that online #advertising and #marketing are nothing but a complete rip-off. It seems like they’re just trying to fleece the most gullible users out of their #money. An #AI #bot that gives you true love and attention—exactly what our lonely #society needs.

  10. The Reality of Modern Isolation and Connections

    Someone: "Men don't try any more"

    Me: "They said:"

    • "I don't need a man."
    • "Men are rubbish."
    • "Take a look at this screenshot. This guy is single, and I'm not responsible. Blocked."
    • "I will marry later. Right now I am focused on studies and career."
    • "This guy is ugly, and I will blame him for making me uncomfortable. I like this other guy who's handsome. Look at this picture."

    That someone: "Now, it makes sense.

    Me: "Oh, I didn't mention this one yet. The parasocial industry promotion is taking advantage of broken-hearted and lonely men. We don't know if it's the real person messaging or a simulation of quick, fast-burning relationships."

    Me: "Also, I didn't mention that some people just didn't reply to messages but were at the same time claiming we are friends (parasocial)."

    We should read Thomas Wolfe every now and then...

    "Proud Death, proud Death, whom I have seen by darkness, at so many times, and always when you came to nameless men, what have you ever touched that you have not touched with love and pity, Death?

    Proud Death, wherever we have seen your face, you came with mercy, love, and pity, Death, and brought to all of us your compassionate sentences of pardon and release. For have you not retrieved from exile the desperate lives of men who never found their home?

    Have you not opened your dark door for us who never yet found doors to enter and given us a room who, roomless, doorless, unassuaged, were driven on forever through the streets of life?

    Have you not offered us your stern provender, Death, with which to stay the hunger that grew to madness from the food it fed upon, and given all of us the goal for which we sought but never found, the certitude, the peace, for which our overladen hearts contended, and made for us, in your dark house, an end of all the tortured wandering and unrest that lashed us on forever?

    Proud Death, proud Death, not for the glory that you added to the glory of the king, proud Death, nor for the honor that you imposed upon the dignities of famous men, proud Death, nor for the final magic that you have given to the lips of genius, Death, but because you come so gloriously to us who never yet knew glory, so proudly and sublimely to us whose lives were nameless and obscure, because you give to all of us—the nameless, faceless, voiceless atoms of the earth—the awful chrism of your grandeur, Death, because I have seen and known you so well, and have lived alone so long with Loneliness, your brother, I do not fear you any longer, friend, and have made this praise for you."

    (By: Thomas Wolfe, "DEATH THE PROUD BROTHER")

  17. It's not easy for me to live life brokenhearted and being single for six years, with always flashbacks of moments spent in a relationship that others experience, but I don't.

    "It is the inability to share one’s true thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, or the fear of being misunderstood or rejected, that creates this profound sense of disconnection."

    Quote of the day by psychologist Carl Jung: 'Loneliness doesn't come from having no people around one, but from being unable to communicate the things' - Though..

    "Carl Jung was a legend. He was a famous Swiss psychiatrist and the founder of analytical psychology. He focus..."

  20. my #energy is very low to cope with everyday life.
    never be #ashamed of your #condition.
    you don't have to be "more", you are enough by the fact that you live.
    it's hard, it's not fair, but in life itself there is #hope.
    sometimes hope is silent, sometimes it's so silent that you don't even recognize it.
    but hope will always be there, just like you.
    and that's enough.
    you are #enough

  21. 💗 That feeling when you're in a room full of people… yet feel completely alone? Or the nights when the quiet just amplifies everything you're holding inside? You're not broken for feeling this way. You're human. Remember: there's always a gentle space waiting. If you need someone to talk to, to share the load, or to find a little light again: I'm here.

  23. A lonely start

    I was at my parent's place for New Years. Just after midnight, I went outside with my mum. We watched some fireworks, which was nice and all. But, as I was watching, I felt overwhelmed by a sudden feeling of loneliness. As I gathered my things to head home again, I felt like it was the saddest start of the new year I've ever experienced... I was alone in Skoosh, driving home, to be there... On my own... Arwen passed away 181 days ago, on Jan 1st that was, and when this gets shared, she will have been gone for exactly 6 months. But it still feels like yesterday when I had to say goodbye to her... 😢 This should be getitng easier, or so people say... But, my life... It resolved so much around Arwen, and her needs and wants, that I just feel like I lost my "purpose" when she passed away. If all goes well, in about 3 weeks, I will know if Gentle is pregnant, if there may be another gall coming for me... But until then... It's just lonely me, missing my gall so much... […]
