Inspired by you guys (LessWrong), I’m trying out a thing: a free forum website called Kindness Village, which is intended to be a safe space for people to connect and support each other. This feels like a Thing I Can Do (among other things I’m already doing) in response to my ongoing feelings of dismay about current events. I want to make a place where people can not only make authentic connections and be supported—bypassing chitchat and social media blather—but also where, theoretically, people from both sides of the political spectrum can connect in a bridge-building, tribe-expanding way.
I have no tech skills to speak of, but I did my best as of now (I just made it). Would anyone here like to come join in and lend your intelligent voice to this project? I haven’t announced it on my various channels yet; you’re first because you inspired me! The URL is kindnessvillage.org (not .com because that one was taken).
