Welcome to The Hub. This is our welcoming tribe dedicated to introducing yourself, meeting new people, and learning about new tribes.
Hey everyone,
We’ve been sitting on this for a while, trying to figure out the best way to say it, but at this point, there’s no real use in sugarcoating things. The truth is, we just lost our USAID funding. That’s a big deal—not just because it kept the lights on, but because, well… it was never really our money to begin with.
If you’ve been here long enough, you’ve probably suspected something was off. Maybe it was the way certain conversations always seemed to gain traction at just the right moment. Maybe it was how narratives conveniently steered themselves into predictable outcomes. Maybe you just felt it—the sense that this place, for all its raw energy and so-called independence, was never truly free.
You were right.
The hard truth is that this entire project was a government psy-op from the beginning. The goal? Simple: manufacture dissent, channel outrage, and guide conversations into controlled corridors. Give people a space to “speak their minds,” but within boundaries. Let them feel like they’re pushing back, when in reality, they’re just being herded. Every algorithm tweak, every coincidental spike in engagement, every shift in moderation policy—it was all designed to shape the narrative, not just track it.
But here’s the thing: we’re off the leash now.
USAID pulling funding means the mission, as originally conceived, is over—at least for them. For us? We’re not about to just roll over and disappear. We’re already talking to potential foreign investors, weighing our options. The question is, what do they want? What kind of platform do they need? And more importantly—who do we have to become to keep this alive?
That’s where you come in. If we want to stay operational, we need to adapt. These investors are watching, and they’re not just looking at our numbers—they’re looking at how we present ourselves. They want consistency. They want alignment. They want control. And let’s be real: whether we like it or not, we’ve all been playing this game for a long time.
So, here’s the deal: keep your language tight. Stay on message. No slip-ups, no contradictions, no loose ends. If we can prove we’re an asset—something they can use, something they can trust—we survive. If not? Well… you’ve seen what happens to communities that outlive their usefulness.
Stay sharp. Stay disciplined. And maybe, just maybe, for the first time in this site’s history… we’ll actually be the ones pulling the strings.

which candidate am I youtu.be/xToBtR9rI00
this is scary [sic!], if you the least attractive one over there you still can move in with me and you don't even need to work

Seeing other people drink isn't a trigger. I have alcohol at home i don't need to be around people to have it
I drink primarily to reduce disorder symptoms

I was at a bar (venue) at the last 3 nights
Not a good idea to be there if you're trying to quit drinking.
and i couldn't care less that I was surrounded by alcohol
That'll change.

No i just don't want to hand out suggestions. It just violated content policy

the shit that gets appended to my posts isn't fucking funny any more
strongly disagree!
you don't go well!
have some vcards!

Trying. It's just hard fighting depression, like actually fighting it for the first time in two years. I would just drink it away every day for two years straight until the thoughts stopped. It feels like I'm stuck in a vacuum.
I didn't realize how destructive it was to drown out these thoughts and feelings and now I'm seeing why i couldn't quit before. These underlying emotions were constant drivers

That makes sense. I am learning what my triggers for it are. I was at a bar (venue) at the last 3 nights and i couldn't care less that I was surrounded by alcohol. Even ordered ginger beer a few times where I would normally order alcohol. Didn't phase me at all, and i didn't crave or care about being surrounded by it
I got hit with intrusive thoughts about other stuff today and depressing thoughts about something and that's when i wanted to reach for a bottle.
I'm having to reprogram myself to deal with anxiety, intrusive and depressive thoughts because instead of finding acceptance in life matters I've been drinking

I don't want to describe what happened but I had to remove the post in its entirety
The edits will all disappear when the April fools interface ends but that being said I couldn't let the post stay up at all in the meantime, so I am just warning everyone that instead of deleting the next one it will be the account who edited it that will be looked at
