Remember when Disqus used to be fun?

I do. Back in the "good old days" of Disqus eons ago it was fun to post and meet new people. Now it seems to be a never-ending plethora of ongoing feuds and fights. 

One of the first places I posted at Disqus was a place called All-len-All and I hung out at Nick's Rec Room. It was fun because I met lots of people with different interests from all over the world. I slowly ventured out into the Disqus world and came across haters and stalkers. This made Disqus suck and it was no longer fun. Recently I deleted my account and planned on never coming back. But I did come back and tried to only post a few places and only to have fun. Over the years on Disqus, I've met people from all over the world and for the most part, it has been good. On the downside the doxing, stalking, and harassment I have faced hasn't been good. At times I have felt physically ill from it. Life is too short to focus on the hate that's out there, and I would rather focus on the good things in life and on Disqus. 

I came back to Disqus because I missed talking to my Disqus friends and wanted to have fun again on Disqus, although I'm not sure that is possible. 

Can we set aside the feuds and the hate for a while and get back to having fun? Is it possible or has too much been said and done? 




I know people aren't on Disqus all of the time? What do you do for fun? What are your hobbies or joys in life? Most of you know I love gardening and it brings me joy. I'm an amateur permaculturalist and that gives me joy and peace. In the summer I grow dill and parsley for Black Swallowtail caterpillars. Butterflies and bees need all the help they can get to survive and it makes me happy that I can provide a small space for them. I saw my first Black Swallowtail butterfly of the year today and wondered if it started its life in my yard. The dill plants in my garden are filled with hungry caterpillars and I hope they all make it to be beautiful butterflies. 



This is a hungry caterpillar in my garden. I could watch them all day. What do you think about the current state of Disqus? What do you do for fun? What makes your life joyous or happy?
