Hey guys, I went ahead and made one of these:

As some of you know, I have Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. My insurance will not cover my Hormone Replacement Therapy costs because of the increased risk caused by it -unless- I get a pacemaker. I cannot afford a pacemaker, even with insurance, thanks to American healthcare prices.

I'm currently working a job doing 12-hour security shifts, but I would like any amount of help I can get. Thank you

hey you
you have more power than you think
use it to help others
inspire them
take them in your arms and whisper what you'd like to do

do not look down on others (unless that is what they wish for)
bring them up to your level and beyond

I have a #machinelearning humor blog at aiweirdness.com where I train #neuralnetworks for comedic effect. It's gotten me thinking about how #AI interacts with our world and #scifi - hopefully I'll be writing more about this in the future!

it is okay to be weak
it is okay to vent about your problems
it is okay to cry
it is okay to admit you don't have the strength
you should be given space to feel these things
you are allowed here to be weak, to have support from the community, and to be shielded from those who would take advantage of your weakness

this is something i have not done a good job of affirming ever since I posted it maybe once a long time ago

it's okay to be weak

I'm happy that we have all these new people join. It makes me hopeful that the landscape of the web can yet change for the better.

Slowly but surely a decentralized, non-commercial, and open-source platform is gaining a foothold.
