neurodiverse
What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!

Try making an RSS feed and sticking to offbeat or informative sources (avoid AFP, AP, Reuters, Western mainstream media as a whole, or reactionary media anywhere, whatever they say which is actually important will be repeated elsewhere). I can imagine why Telegram and Lemmy would bother you, as many people get invested in a particular interpretation or prediction. This makes it a lot more stressful to figure out what's going on.
I definitely want to get one at some point and integrate it into my home server. I'll give it a look :)
Yeah self-hosting stuff like RSSHub is the best way. If you want a quick solution the demo of this works up to 1,000 feeds. https://www.commafeed.com/ Which of course, nobody would ever reach, so don't ask how I know.
Instead of doomscrolling, try doom RSSing (rss at the very bottom of the page)
Appreciated!
I really have to warn, it is not what you want to keep up with if you are trying not to doom. It is an aggregator of news from humanitarian organizations, it is just constant news of hunger, displacement, death and such.
I already have a folder for this variety of news. 👀 Yeah, it needs containment, more to escape the focus applied by humanitarian orgs than freaking out. You do want to make sure you have an idea what you're looking for e.g. searching a particular country's name.
Yup.
Tip for reliefweb specifically: You can filter based on a bunch of stuff, including country, and this carries over to the rss link.
