“Our human compassion binds us the one to the other – not in pity or patronizingly, but as human beings who have learned how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future.” ~ Nelson Mandela

It's that time of year again: when people everywhere tell you how you *should* be feeling and ignore how you're *really* feeling. Do those around you a favor: dial back the performative joy and make space for those who don't feel like fiddling while the world burns down around them.
#Christmas #MentalHealth #Compassion
I understand that this isn't for everyone, and it's not my goal to recruit you to any of these, so much as to show where I'm looking for substantive opportunities to do the good work of building up a working-class coalition that supports #equality, #compassion, and especially #democracy. I also believe that volunteer work with local relief orgs — such as food banks, women's shelters, and immigrant refuges — will be more important than ever before.
@flexghost The #fascist message is loud and proud from these #assholes. My greatest #fear is that too many people are unable to recognize it.
At this stage, anyone who still supports #trump has willfully abandoned both their conscience and any/all capacities for #empathy and #compassion. They have chosen to accept and live a #delusional and #divisive #reality where, quite bluntly, anyone who doesn't share their beliefs is the #enemy.
The number of #people, #corporations, #religious groups, and #organizations willing to throw massive amounts of #money and #support behind Trump and this #maga movement is simply staggering. We, as #americans and #humans, are living in critically #dangerous time. #History is repeating itself in real time yet too many people are incapable of recognizing it and/or don't care.
I am a raging storm of #kindness
I am a hurricane of #compassion
I am a tornado of #love
I am the whirlwind
I am #trans
And I am unstoppable!

So, new instance and new #introduction time! If we share stuff, say "hello". Even if we don't, but you think we might have interesting chats, say "hi!". I've never been awesome at just listing interests. I'm into so many things, and I recognise that people are so complex anyway, that a list seems odd and restrictive. But with intent of connecting, here goes - Former #englishliterature nerd with interests in #science, #astronomy, #history, #psychology, #philosophy, #politics and on and on. Currently, I'm #writing and #drawing (mostly scribbling honestly) monsters for tiny #fantasy #horror adventures I make for #osr and #ttrpgs like #dungeonsanddragons. I love #boardgames and game mechanics generally. Sometimes I write #poetry and #fiction and even #makingmusic like #ambientmusic. Sometimes I #paint #abstractart. Often, I practice #photography. Studying #counselling has also led to an interest in #meditation, #compassion and #mindfulness. Oh, and recently have been getting into #Obsidian and #markdown. I'll probably Toot about lots of stuff, but that's reflective of my interest in so many areas. #joinin #introductions
I'm getting more follows and understand better how I'm using the site, so I'll do an updated intro! I'm a #GenX #Punk and #Autistic #AutiGender with #CPTSD and work in #DataScience . I mostly post and boost about #Covid #ZeroCovid #WearAMask #ActuallyAutistic #Weather . I also strongly believe in and boost posts for #BlackMastodon #BLM #IndigenousRights #TransRights #DisabilityRights #LGBTQIA #Climate #Trees #AntiFascist #Compassion .
Religious, Political and philosophical ponderings.
My #introduction - #science interested former #englishliterature major currently studying #counselling. Also interested in #meditation, #mindfulness connected to #compassion and a strong evidence base, as techniques in counselling to help people in need, and the capacity for a study of #philosophy to help us live as best we can as vulnerable creatures on a tiny blue #planet in the vastness of time and #space.
My interests are pretty diverse. I enjoy #boardgames and #gamedesign. I also run an #osr #dnd focussed #ttrpg using Basic Fantasy as a foundation. All connected to #reading and #writing #poetry #horror, #fantasy, and #scifi.
Occasionally, I make #abstractart with brushes, and make music with #DAWs like #ableton.
More often, I engage in #photography with #oldlenses.
If you're on similar wavelengths, say "Hi!"
What concerns me most is that compassion is lacking. It is instinctive for a person to demonise another and even entire groups based on fear. The need to belong to a social group drives so much of our behaviour and our judgement of others, but it is wise to take a breath and remind oneself that individual differences are real - we are each a world unto ourselves - and that is good and natural! #psychology #compassion #counselling #empathy #mindfulness

Remember to show #compassion to others. We are all different and that brings different thoughts & opinions. It's not cool to show hate towards another because they believe in something different.
