A place for optimism, relentless positivity, anti-doomerism, and snuggle sessions.

We're all in this together, and a better world is possible!

This is now also a space for organizing tips for our collective survival as we confront climate change and everything else. Still no doom-posting. We're here to work together, support each other, and boldly face the future.

Rules:

  1. Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct

  2. No doom, no gloom, only bloom. There's plenty of room for doomerism elsewhere. This community is solely for having a positive outlook on the future and spreading good vibes.

  3. Be kind to your fellow users. This also means no arguing in the comm. Arguments and negativity are not conducive to blooming. Constructive discussion is good. No interest-policing. Support your comrades in their joy!

  4. Always share good news. We can't exactly enforce this one, but if you have good news, please share it with us! Keeping happiness and positivity to yourself is the twelfth type of liberalism.

My contribution: My health has improved greatly and I'm feeling better than I have in years. Also look at this stupid bird, how can you look at that unsettling face and not feel joy? He's so happy to be a freak. I love him.

I have this coding project that's taken me hundreds of hours trying to recreate ERP from scratch as an open source resource. I didn't realize that giving it a choice between GUI and CLI was as ambitious as creating it in the first place. I was really anxious because I didn't know what to do in order to separate back end from front end and failed a few times, but this week I got it to work in an organized way.

It's going to have interchangable hosting, file storage, custom data parsing, custom file creation, page style, login+permission, etc. all ready to hopefully take a day or two to set up and make (the parsing, file generation, and persistent objects likely taking longer).
