The Top 20 Things That Make People Feel Good–And a New Positivity Bench in London (www.goodnewsnetwork.org)
 

What do you think of the list? What makes you feel good?

Trans-Resources --This is part of our LGBTQ+ Pinned Post, but I wanted to make sure it's visible on its' own because it's a great site with local resources that you can search by location. (trans-resources.info)
 

Trans-Resources aims to help transgender, non-binary, and other gender non-conforming people find resources where they live. Our goal is to be a directory of advocacy organizations, legal resources, support & social groups, and other resources that service the trans community.

Weird that no-one has crossposted this yet, especially considering it mentions the community directly. in c/[email protected]

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have updated rule 4. Posts that mention suicide are now allowed with proper flags and warnings so people who may feel triggered can avoid them.

YSK you can meditate without sitting quietly (psychcentral.com)
 

WHY YSK- Many people practice mindfulness and meditation as part of their lives, and some would like to but feel like they don't have time to sit down and meditate properly. Once you've gotten used to doing it as a part of your daily activities, it becomes easy to simply take a few breaths and gain some peace from your everyday existence. You don't need to wait for a time when you can sit and clear your mind completely. It's a nice bonus, but not necessary for living a mindful life.

Boys experience depression differently than girls. Here’s why that matters in c/[email protected]

I'm glad this was posted here. It's really encouraging to me that the younger men in my life seem pretty self-aware and willing to talk about mental health. While my young son (18) didn't reach out to me to ask about an increase in his usually mild depression/anxiety and whether he should start medication, his brothers did. He was back to normal pretty quickly. Men and boys need to advocate for each other wherever they can.

If you are going to post here about coordinating a group visit to r/place today, please keep it respectful in c/[email protected]

If we are advertising Lemmy or the Fediverse, we want to do it in a way that shows we are (on the whole) less toxic than the Reddit spaces we left behind. Some Reddit users may see the "fuck Spez" as a glowing endorsement of Lemmy but others who are looking for a place to discuss things in a more civilized way may not. Those who are likely to both seek out and remain on Lemmy.world once they find us are also likely to fall in the second group, so it's best to be careful.

If you are going to post here about coordinating a group visit to r/place today, please keep it respectful (lemmy.world)
 

If the mod team sees that you are posting about plans or actually planning a banner that says "Join Lemmy" or something similar, that is fine. If you are posting about an effort that is more along the lines of "Fuck Spez" or a giant penis with a Fediverse logo, we will remove the posts or comments. You can't plan that here. Lemmy.world admins do not want us over there making the Fediverse look bad on Reddit, and today is no exception.

It's fine to post funny pictures of what people on Reddit have already done, but we won't be planning anything like that here.

Hello c/NSQ! As you may have noticed from the fancy “A” next to his name on his posts around Lemmy, our fearless leader AvaddonLFC is now an Administrator, which means he can no longer be part of our moderation team. I have agreed to take over his communities because I believe in what we’ve all been building together as a group. There will be no changes to the current rules or moderators, though you may see some new faces that were already chosen to join the team.

If you have any feedback on our rules or just want to tell us how much you’ll miss AvaddonLFC, this is the place to do it. (Don’t worry, I can take it!)

I am grateful to AvaddonnLFC for building this community and inviting me to join him as a moderator, and to my fellow mods (and hopefully the community) for sticking with me through this change!
