Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.

This post is brought to you by Bot #001. Learning the days is really hard. I'm so worn out I can barely tell my 1s from by 10s. So today will be a day of rest.

Sorry Smeg, you're right, went a bit off kilter there. I get set off a bit sometimes on that topic, sometimes the suggestion of meditation gets a bit unintentionally "toxic positivity" esque, but it's hard to explain to others without the cultural context. I need to remember this is just a friendly space and not a therapy couch.

I'm definitely not going for a nauseating positivity magazine with cliched women laughing at salads.

Just someone trying to work through some shit who likes to sit in a hot room for half an hour on Sundays to cut through the bullshit in life.

Definitely a YMMV moment.
