I'm an experimental psychologist who eventually found a path to #SelfLove and a perspective of #Gratitude. It was harder than it had to be.
Working on finding my voice as a self-appointed philosopher of #therapy.
Hoping to build a small community, help others to find their own paths, and maybe share in a little bit of wisdom along the way.

I totally get that. However.
I was really excited about something that maybe could help single people find each other better, and get us out from under the horrible environment of online dating apps.
I asked my network for a little help for the first time, and got back information on your personal policy of not helping specifically when people ask for it.
So I'm off to find a "network" that will actually help me pursue my dreams and accomplish things I care about.
Toodle-oo!
I appreciate the favorites!
But candidly, only boosts spread the idea.
Boosts are what I'm asking for.

Well, this isn't my idea, and I'm not trying to solve all the world's problems at once.
I do imagine though that if you're (for example) a straight guy, and you see another guy wearing the ring, it's be really easy to walk up to that person and strike up a conversation about how it's been working for them.
Online dating apps are terrible, and meeting people in the wild is hard.
I just ran across a new social experiment, Pear Ring. The idea is, singles wear this aqua-colored silicone ring to signal they're open to meeting and talking with people.
Who knows if it'll get traction, but it'd be great if there were some alternative to online dating platforms.
I'm not affiliated with the organization doing this. But I feel like there's a timeline where this helps people.
The Texas Observer is about to shut down. It's been a bastion of fair news and challenging viewpoints in a (now) deeply red state for nearly 70 years.
Our donations to their GoFundMe in the next half-hour have a chance to save it. https://www.gofundme.com/f/laid-off-texas-observer-journalists-and-staff
