Done! Also, just throwing out a couple suggestions for communities for possible future installment:

• Style (clothing/shoes/makeup/skincare/etc)
• Collectibles or Hobbies (toys/cards/pins/plushies/etc)

Cute babies! My urge to to adopt some guinea pigs gets stronger every day.

Yes! Often, if I’m feeling pent up anxiety, it’s because I’ve spent too long being inactive. Doing something strenuous, whether it be an fun active excursion, or just some chores around the house to the point of exhaustion, eases my mind. Movement is so important for mental health.

Onigiri! (Rice balls.) My favorite type is tuna, and they’re a great way to use leftover rice. If you’re very lazy like me, you can even skip the whole ball aspect. Just dollop tuna w/ mayo on some rice, cut up some nori over the top (or sprinkle furikake), and you’re done!

Mochi looks very sweet, I love guinea pigs! 🥺

Washing my face! Sometimes something as simple as some refreshing skincare, and maybe a little something extra - like a scrub or sheet mask, makes me feel calmer and relaxed. Paired with a warm drink like tea or coffee, this usually helps soothe me when I’m anxious.

To me, the introduction of Meta to the fediverse means exposing everyone to a large poorly moderated community that would ruin the current culture of the fediverse. The best way for people to protect themselves from the inevitable onslaught of hate/prejudice/threats, the kind that’s typically found on Facebook but somehow “not against community guidelines”, is to preemptively block the upcoming instance. As for the NDAs, they are a great way to sow distrust within our own instances and try to tear us apart.
