The "Silly Question" Thread

Everyone got miraculously cured after the AsPD Forum got locked.

So it was the ASPD forum's fault?
From what I've read, it won't be re-opened any time soon. Perhaps it was too fun/non-serious to be a healthy support place.
Hope there's a cure for me around here somewhere too.

I could never express myself in social media as I could in a forum. I sound very different in social media. No way it could be used as a substitute.

As people's IQ and attention spans shrink, social media seems to be the perfect platform for shallow thoughts and hateful discussion. I post on reddit occasionally but there are so many users your voice gets drowned out.

I am currently working on plans to take down the internet permanently.

I sometimes find social media helpful for getting to the core of what I think (I mostly don't post it, it's the posting format I like). As for the voices getting drowned out in the crowd, I am still learning how to (intentionally) sound louder in a virtual place. I was without internet for a while some time ago, and I managed to get many things done but I also felt pretty unhappy and nervous.

What do you mean by this?

And that nervousness and unhappiness was withdrawl.
