  1. i feel like, too often, all the advice we give/receive for dealing with our struggles is based in uncritical acceptance of social atomization as a fact of life, a law of the universe.

    that painful void is left where social connection should be and it can’t be filled with consumer goods or shame. #socialatomization #alienation #socialdeath #neoliberalism #competitiveindividualism #consumerism #individualism #antipsych #antipsychiatry #solidarity #communitybuilding #socialconnection #lonelinessepidemic #disability #harmreduction #substanceuse #depression #mentalhealth #behavioralhealth

  2. Eventually, probably, likely someone will ask you why you have made the things you have made.

  3. I've been kicking around the idea of a community built around belonging, curiosity, service, and genuine connection. A place where people can gather regularly, hear someone's story or learn something new, have thoughtful conversations over coffee, and build real friendships. Then once a month, instead of just talking about making our community better, we'd go volunteer or work on a local service project together.

    Not a church. Not an anti-church. Not a political group.

    Just neighbors creating the kind of community many of us wish we had.

    Being based in Liberty, MO I've been calling the idea "Liberty Circle" because I love the symbolism of the circle. No one at the head. No one left outside. Just people coming together, making room for one another, and growing together.

    Has anyone here been part of something like this? I'd love to hear what worked, what didn't, and what made people keep coming back.

  5. The Cruelty of Not Intruding

    Traveling abroad changed how I saw home. Returning from a family visit, I realized America's greatest deficit may not be economic or political but relational. Our celebration of independence often discourages everyday acts of care, leaving many surrounded by love, yet living with profound loneliness.

  25. I love this article. In my suburb of #Adelaide, I acknowledge everyone, perhaps crossing the socially acceptable line discussed. In the nearby park chatting is permitted especially at the footbridge over the river where we are channeled to close proximity. The dog walkers actually gather and chat as a group and I look on in envy. We even have someone who walks with a parrot on their shoulder…

  28. Loneliness is not just a social problem, it’s also bad for your health. Loneliness can increase the risk of premature mortality, cardiovascular disease, depression, and cognitive decline. Experts say that loneliness can be prevented and treated by strengthening social connections, creating age-friendly environments, and combating ageism.

  29. #Loneliness — the #distress and #discomfort we feel when we perceive a gap between the #SocialConnection we want and the quantity and quality of the relationships we currently have — can be a side effect of #RemoteWork. That lack of connection might feel slight or huge based on how we’re wired and our unique set of needs. hbr.org/2023/05/is-your-remote #HybridWork #WorkEnvironment #MentalHealth via @HarvardBiz
