What’s bringing you joy?
This post. There are a lot of negative news in the world and Lemmy feels often pessimistic. Reading everybody’s answers made me feel lighter, so thank you for the question
I’m glad you are enjoying it, and as am I, it’s been so nice to read about all the good in everyone’s lives.
I feel like Lemmy is kind of like anything else in that you get out of it what you put into it to a degree.
Wedding prep
The home server im setting up. I can finally break free of the clutches of cloud storage.
That all of my recent health issues the last 3 months were temporary.

If everything goes according to plan, I’m moving to Europe.
Which country do you plan to move to?
France
live in canada rn, definitely gonna do the same.
The fact i already have citizenship from birthright helps
From Canada?! Why? (If I may ask)
Partly a cultural thing, i already speak french fluently and i like the culture in france more than the culture of Québec (canada’s french speaking province, where i live).
But also practical, i want to live in a walkable city and the only real option in Québec is almost as expensive as living in paris’ 19 arrondissements. I could find a nice place that’s less expensive to live in in france, at least, i hope.
edit: where are you moving from, actually?
Ok I get it now.
From the middle-east. I’m going there to find a software developer job, hopefully.
I’m actually looking at a similar job :)
Good luck though! I’ve heard that immigrating to france is pretty hard if you don’t have bloodright citizenship
The closest friend i made since moving abroad alone 2 years ago, changed their mind and they are not moving out of the city. Also, two of my favorite bands put out killer new albums that fit the eternal combo of coffee+tobacco really well
What is life without good friends and music? I’m glad you have both of things bringing you joy right now.
Playing X4, despite the crashes.
But to be really honest, giving drawing lessons to 9-11yo kids. Something I never considered doing in my life, but damn does it make me feel good, though the kids’ progress (or lack thereof) often leaves me wondering if I’m actually being any good

I’m aware that it makes people cringe, but it’s so true that I’ve never been more happy; more bottoms than a top could ever ask for… Enough to over come the negativety from all the judgemental or bitter queens.
I’m not a top, but I know that feeling, and it’s amazing. That was my entire year last year. It was so freeing and empowering. Don’t do things that harm the sustainability of that like meth or smoking. Keep your health up and keep drinking water and hygiene. Take care of yourself and you’ll just continue to get more and more powerful :)
I quit a higher paying job to move to the Columbia River gorge. Sure I make a lot less money but I’m so happy being out in this beautiful area. There’s something calming about it
Dude, that’s awesome!
