How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

[Lone Outsider]

Doing fine, just a bit surprised over how Russia cucked down but it's interesting to see how things will go after this mess.

 

[Rent Tin]

It's frustrating to see the amount of people who will blatantly lie about the site and the users, and all the hit-pieces really solidify that media is complete propaganda.

 

[Deckard Bane]

Doing fine, while I am upset at the state of things it was inevitable with the way big tech has been aligning. After 2016 they've been clamping down hard on anything counter culture or subversive to their cause and it's only going to get worse before it gets better, though I am optimistic that it will eventually come full circle. I just feel bad for Josh and hope he's doing ok and has support from some whales to keep him in business.

When I joined the site 4 years ago it was mainly to read about Chris Chan's antics. I knew the forum was controversial but I would've never thought it would be at risk of shutting down because a few trans people are mad their predatory ways are being exposed. At least when the Christchurch shooter's video was posted here, it was obvious it would cause problems and if the site got shut down, the reason behind it would have been somewhat justified. There was even the government of New Zealand on the case (but they could barely do anything).
I feel like this debacle opened my eyes. This is the first time I've seen blatant lies on the news about a subject I'm tangentially familiar with. I didn't know journalists lied to that extent. It's mind blowing. Good luck Josh

I mean not great considering all of the shit going on is making me go "hold on a second, we need to think about this" and the common response is usually just "shut the fuck up and accept it".

Something's wrong, and it's not just with KF. At the risk of sounding like a green-wigged maniac talking about "society", it definitely feels like culture is shifting in a direction where we want the simple explanations rather than the honest ones. Nothing has nuance. There's the bad guys and the good guys, and those with influence to decide who's bad and who's good. I've genuinely had conversations with mates that got heated, and even in light of giving some real reasonable points, it just blows over their head as the simple narrative they've been taught is what they must accept. Hell, I even talked to one about the ProJared situation the other day and just talked about how "Jared might have been an asshole but it looks like many of those accusations were false" and pretty much everything flew over his head, ignoring it in favour of just "Jared is an asshole". And this kinda mindset is now the majority. Simple explainations that conform to your own biases overwrite any genuine attempt to give a subject due-diligence.

Thinking that makes me just go "man, it'd be so much easier if I never tried to think and just went with the flow". I fear that the next half-decade will basically be more of this. Seeing issues, trying to point to them and go "this is fucked", but being looked at like a loon except for the rare moment when they go "oh shit I see it now" and completely ignore that early-warning I saw and my attempts to warn others.

Somewhat nihilistic, but given this, I just want things to get worse in a public way so things can start to get better.

North Korea server when?

 

[Jason Wynn]

Like others have said, irritated about the problems facing the site. I’d hate to see something happen to a place I’ve had a lot of fun with, but I’m here to enjoy it while it lasts. If nothing else, glad I got to know some of you here.

 

[Testicular Manslaugther]

Shit is fucking weird right now - pardon the power level shit.

My partner lives in Neighbouring Country, but I live in Current County. It's only like two hours away, so it's not terrible in that regard (although I miss her a lot, obviously.)

I'm currently moving to Neighbouring Country, but moving to another country is a fucking nightmare. OCD runs in my family, and when I get too exhausted, it starts rearing its head with me.

I'm getting obsessive thoughts again, and I hate it. I'll suddenly convince myself that she's cheating on me, and it won't go away even though it's completely unreasonable. I don't tell her because it's not her problem, but I can't really talk to anyone without sounding crazy. I'm trapped in my head, living out of boxes and work is insane at the moment.

Luckily, there's always internet drama.

It's not new unfortunately, but I had never seen it to this extent where the entire narrative from multiple sources was so corrupted.

I've seen it many times. Journalists hang out - and it's very very easy to plant whatever narrative you want if you have the right network. Not going to reveal how I know this, so I'm saying this on "trust me bro" authority.

 

[Foltest]

It is now done.
my dog is no longer ill.
He will never be again.
I will miss him for the rest of my days.
I had ten great years with him .

 

[Shringlecrink]

My hatred of specific trannies that shan't be named have started to affect my views of the standard tranny. No I worry that this upcoming family function will be a testing on seeing as their is going to be a tranny couple with the promise of "Anyone says anything about them I will escort you out myself." Now they have come for my familial relationships too

Other then that, I have been pretty good not everything has been on the up and up, but it isn't getting me that down. Hope you cuties are doing well <3

Same the sites held together with duct tape, chewing gum, and faulty Chinese internet service but at least it's held out. Saw Josh's post on telegram about a phone call. I only hope it's a good one like he's found a host in a country that won't screw him over with crappy connections. Cause. Top is prone to crapping out sometimes for hours. You had one job China help us make fun of the troons till they cry and realize they're fighting more windmills than Don Quixote

 

[DrNow]

I'm just staying out the stinkditch for now. Pretty much past my limit with troonery for the forseeable future I think. Just checked in my boy Cobes, wand business going strong.

Moving is really hard normally.
Taking care to stop what your doing and just work the problems your brain gives you can help, but fuck when it doesn't.
I hate the thoughts that enter my head, especially since it's just been getting worse as the world just loses its mind around us.

But just remember, there's always tomorrow and once this is over you'll be with your sweetheart from the neighboring country.

Thanks man. I appreciate it - we're counting weeks now, not months. It's going to be great when I finally get my Boyfriend-Free Girl

Working with China and Chinese vendors requires a certain way of going about things. You can get fucked in seventeen ways if you don't know the unwritten rules and ways to go about things. I'm surprised Null even got it up - that alone shows that he's got a good connection. China is very very special.

eh fair point but still. Kiwifarms isn't far right or left, but we have threads litteraly called fuck china general i take it someone in charge over there wouldn't take too kindly to talk like that.

Personally I'm doing alright I missed national read a book day so I'm trying to make up for that by getting back into reading. I almost forgot how much I used to do it.

 

[Jason Wynn]

Reinstalled Borderlands 2 and have been playing that. Never went through the game as Krieg so I've been trying him out. Started reading Shadowlands last night. Sucks that Chink Farms is still janky but hopefully Josh's good news relates to the site.

 

[toilet_rainbow]

Glad to be off work. Direct deposit posts in a couple hours so that's nice. My recent health problems also didn't flare up too badly tonight. I am worried about a nine hour shift I have this weekend, though.

I'm glad I have my fiancee. She's been such a trooper through this and I don't know what I'd do without her.

I'm glad the site is still up in some form. I am disgusted every time I see such blatant lies about the site being treated as fact by "respected" media sites and agencies, but what can I do? Hope that Josh's phone call bodes well. He has been through a lot of shit particularly lately and he really deserves a break.

 

[ñññ]

It might sound gay, but I'm a bit worried about the future of the forum. Had a lot of fun around here these last months.
