  • Should I join "free speech" alternatives?

  • I think you're right that the anger is misguided. I also think it stems from trauma, but that's just me. It's like the old saying "hurt people hurt people" and right-wingers are a bunch of repressed, hurt people.

  • Honestly, I've been trying hard to practice self-care, so I believe in loving and being kind to yourself. Im also very left leaning, close to socialist/anarchist ideals/beliefs.

  • I used to hang out on toefur, a straight edge forum (I was straight edge for the majority of my life, not anymore though) It wasn't a bad site to be on, but it had its moments. I learned the phrase fuckdammit there.

  • Maybe it's just my way of thinking, but if someone says "you can't do that" I usually stop doing that and shut down, because it's not allowed. I have autism, so that my play a role in it, but my go to response is to just shut down usually and stop doing that thing or avoid it all together.

  • I've thought about being compassionate with these people, but the moment you get called a jewish slur or the n word, all compassion kinda goes out the window.

  • For Leftists: What happens when a content creator has a questionable guest on?

    Jump

  • To my knowledge, on The Convo Couch, they treated the guest with respect and as an informed source on the topic.

  • Yes. I'm also worried they're getting fed dogwhistles or right-wing talking points from these people. Danny Haiphong used to be a journalist for Black Agenda Report which is very very left/socialist, and now he's having alt-right content creators on. Although, to be fair, he was a correspondent with Jimmy Dore, so he was already questionable.

  • On The Convo Couch, they brought on a guy that's a covid misinformation pusher, but they brought him on to talk about the Palestinian genocide and the lies Israel is saying. Danny Haiphong has brought on an alt-right channel/magazine called The Duran to talk about Russia, and also Israel.

  • I'm guessing they think the guest has a better analysis than the media and isn't endorsed by corporate backing.

  • I've never watched Real Time with Bill Maher. I was thinking more along the lines of if Democracy Now had Andrew Tate on to talk about the dangers of human trafficking. Questionable as in they are a covid denier or anti-trans views.

  • Adaptogens and Autism

    Jump

  • The long term is what I'm slightly concerned about.

  • Adaptogens and Autism

    Jump

  • Yes, that's makes sense. When I get really happy or excited I'll stim. When I drank the cordyceps tea, it was similar to being high, but my body and mind were calmer. Same effect with Tulsi tea. I know Tulsi tea has linalool in it. which is also in Marijuana. When I drink Tulsi or Cordyceps tea, it feels like my vision and brain are in a bubble, or I'm looking through a fishy eye lens if that makes sense. What I'm hoping, is that adaptogens just block certain receptors and aren't really changing the brain at all.

    Is there an after dark section?

  • Any lists?

  • Should I try WHM again?

    Jump

  • Okay, so I did 3 rounds of the method. Then, I did buteyko breathing. I worked out, did my yoga and tai chi. I'm the calmest I've been in a long time. It could be from the tea mix I had, though. I haven't had any paranoia at all. I drank a hibiscus tea mix, and hibiscus really helps with my paranoia/anxiety so that could be why I'm calm. I kinda want to try the method before bed, with buteyko afterwards, but it could be a gamble.

    Jump

  • Apparently, Wim can influence his autonomic nervous system at will, or so he says. I think I know the real reason. Hear me out, when I do buteyko, it releases nitric oxide, which widens your blood vessels, and thickens the blood. Thicker blood means warmer body temperature. I could be way off, though.
