I know p38 is the problem and I understand it i also understand that if political content of any form is the first thing people see then that's bad too. It irks me but we can't do much about it anyhow
It's the just the nature of it all now. It's nigh impossible to engage in political discussion online anymore because it's just going to be insufferable. There isn't any nuance online and you're going to be shouted down or lumped in with the worst if you do try to engage, so I don't. It frustrates me because I used to greatly enjoy political discussions but now it's almost not worth it because I don't even feel proud of my either side. And independents don't win elections. (I accidentally replied to my own post like a retard)

To the logical side of my brain, I do understand that they're just coincidences. However presenting them as God's doing makes me feels whole. It's sort of like a placebo. I know I will be ok, there is someone there for me at any time, and he shows it by presenting little miracles for me.
It's just comforting is all. I feel the most religious when I'm having a bad time. Because there's something to direct hope towards. It will get better because I prayed it would. And it does.
I'm not sure what the view is called, spiritualism or something similar, but I've come to believe that God makes himself known to us by any means. That doesn't mean that it'll be like 'oh shit, that's definitely God' but more something more akin to 'this thing had to have happened for a reason, and the only thing I can pin that reason on is God's influence. Thus, God is everywhere, and God is everything.
The world is brimming with detail and beauty, and there will always be something new to surprise you if you look. Maybe I don't pray as much as I should, and I feel like I should attend church but I just don't feel the motivation to do so, but I feel God's presence in my life because of these small miracles. A stranger and I had a unique conversation. A dragonfly perched upon my outstretched arm. The sun illuminated the clouds in the sky with an incredible golden visage.
When I begin to see the world as being full of gifts for me, I appreciated it more.
Oh my god new users are appearing, this is incredible.
Mainchan is not really for passive consumption; you get the most out of it if you engage and make posts like this. (and please do so, there aren't much of us here anyways)
Holy crap emailing all the users would do really well. Honestly I think that in order for mainchan to get off the ground it needs a base community like s/random to be popular before anyone can branch off
Either that or... shit maybe the whole livestream idea might actually be relevant. Just have fan requests file through mainchan instead of reddit like usual. Oh shizzle. That might be it. However that of course requires one to get famous in the first place which I'd still like to do because I'm a massive narcissist.
Undoubtedly this occurs on the internet too

Church is good for community indeed.
