I was thinking about how Life is going in a very dark direction with all that's happening in the news recently. It doesn't seem fitting to me that all this negativity is in our face when we go there to improve our lives and talk about personal issues and it only adds to the negativity and depression here

I want to suggest turning Politics into News & Politics since those are more related topics and move the news threads there. And why is Politics hidden like we're trying to censor it? I think it would be active if more users were aware it exists. If not have News become it's own section if it's not too much trouble. If you don't agree with this move please voice your opinions itt I'm not trying to ruin Life if you prefer it this way

Nooo this was gonna be my next thread once my daily limit is reset

What if it’s good news? Seems the only leg this proposal stands on is the negativity aspect

If we do a News section we have to ban No Jumper and other tabloid clickbait sources like this. This content kills traffic and would drive users away

Could we do a sub-community of Life & Advice? "Current Events" part of this forum? Or maybe just merge news stories into one megathread called like "Breaking News"?

Agreed. Life SXN should have threads about things like sleeping on the job and being stuck in a skatepark bowl.

Think a hide thread feature would be more useful across the board

News section would be great. Could help make life sxn a lil closer to its ktt1 counterpart imo

Yeah all news is welcome like this

It's just rare to find positive news and it doesn't get as many pages

we need a twitter sxn

L&A ain’t what it used to be

So because of how the news makes you feel, we should change how the site works

there is alot of positive news but yall just dont post about it lol

no we do not want any more of you dumbasses in Politics

That was one of my initial points but how do you feel when we have threads about being a virgin or trying weed next to BREAKING Officers Kill Someone or Elon Buys Twitter? Seems like a mess sometimes. Life is such a broad section right now covering almost anything

Yes please its about time

I’m willing to beta test it

This sxn wasnt always just tweets and news articles

Always been like this tho
Even ktt

Yes it has lmao

The classic about sleeping behind a bunch of boxes at a retail job

Good ole days

At the end of the day there is a fine difference between a thread about a news event involving a tragedy vs the advice/journal type threads life is usually geared toward. Like even down to the user discourse it’s different
