I dunno why people avoid asking stuff like this. I always see the “happy last week” or “what are grateful” and I can’t relate to these type of posts.

I’m mostly on the miserable side than sad tbh, that’s why I won’t post my experience.

    One of our neighbours died. She was 102 and had been ill for a while. My wife was one of the last people to speak to her. She was just fed up with being ill for the last few years and her body just shutting down, she said she was ready to go. Up until a couple of months ago she was still pretty mobile as well. Still sad though.

    Two german states elected their state government over the weekend and both of them voted mostly for the nazi party or nazi adjacent parties.

    Because if you want to get sad, angered and all the other type of negative emotions, there are hundreds of other communities to do so.

    This community, and a few others (!wholesome@reddthat.com , !lemmybewholesome@lemmy.world ) are the few where we actively try to keep a positive vibe.

    That said, it’s obviously fine to share something that made sad of course, but maybe not having this as a regular thread.

    There is also !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world that could fit the bill.

      Then you should probably just ban OP lol. He has literally never had a positive interaction on Lemmy (I hate dogs, I hate heat, I hate religion, commenting about how miserable he is on every other thread). Just look at his comment history. And that’s saying nothing of his previous accounts because he’s also a serial ban evader.

        Hey,

        As always, thank you for your comment

        I wasn’t sure it was the same person, as OP mentions not having any link to family while the previously banned person lived with his mother.

        I might do a meta post later on how to deal with overtly negative people, to see what the rest of the community is thinking

          It is definitely the same person. This account mentioned in the now deleted “I hate dogs” thread that he lives with his mother. I actually clocked him by his speech patterns within the first couple of comments he made with this new account, but I figured you modfolk would want a bit more evidence first.

    I feel you. I see those posts and am like. I got nothin for this. Thing is I don’t want to go through bad things either even if its just the monotony of work or other dumb shit.
