Hey guys so Im on Lex and Ive had good bad the ugly all the mix but at this present time it seems like im attracting weird energy. At first I chopped it up to it being just the woes of online dating but now its like starting to become a pattern I notice.

Ill make a few posts and have mad people hmu (not mad people but people lol) and some of them are weird, could either be good or bad

one thing in particular ive noticed is people hitting me up and we converse and then they go ghost. That part is the norm for most people but its not just that, these same people will hit me up, ask me to hang, and then go ghost after ive responded with a yes and its driving me insane its like im bein plotted against but I know thats simply not the case but I just cant help but be confused by this and ask why? why do people do this on lex? I dont understand it.

al I want is community and it just feels like im never going to get that no matter how much effort I put in being either the person to make the first move or reciprocate the mutual effort

how do I just stop letting this stuff bother me? I simply dont want to be "nonchalant" or act like these things are above as its not in me to do so, I sincerely want to build friendships with people but it just feels like nowadays you gotta get thru hoop of keeping someone interested even tho they reach out first and I feel so exhausted from being the one in this position all the time

Getting FATIGUED with seeing just only white posters, is there any sub thats similar but for black trans men?

im constantly seeing the most right wing takes dropped in the comments, people who arent from there or no longer live here crowding to give some shit brain fox news take on nyc. People arguing over each other to cry about shitty nyc is, but also the racism and Islamophobia is on ten. Constantly seeing posts from the NY POST which is an openly far right news source, owned by Oligarch Murdoch, and people actually take the post seriously on there sometimes! the occasional person points out how shitty the Post is and arguments start breaking out.

Its just weird how the main sub for nyc is such a far right diarrhea cesspool for conservatives to chime in on how Mamdani is going to ruin NYC (despite them saying this for years in regards to whomever is in charge) but now its like thats all one can expect from that sub? what tf happened? it went from mildly purple to seeing red damn near...

A member of Congress someone entrusted with leadership, professionalism, and public service chose to treat a fourth grader’s curiosity as an opportunity for political grandstanding. Regardless of anyone’s opinions on EVs, climate policy, or energy infrastructure, there is something deeply inappropriate about an adult politician speaking to a child with open contempt simply because the child expressed concern for the future.

Virginia Foxx has received campaign contributions connected to oil and gas interests throughout her political career. That does not prove corruption on its own, but it absolutely helps explain why a child innocently discusses climate change and electric vehicles was treated like a political opponent instead of a child.

It’s a rare instance of cooperation between one of Wall Street’s favorite charities and a democratic socialist mayor who once said he didn’t believe billionaires should exist.

Robin Hood, one of New York’s largest charitable organizations—and one of Wall Street’s favorites—announced it had received a $100 million gift from the Bezos family, the parents of billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

The donation establishes the Jackie Bezos Endowment for Early Childhood, which will prioritize funding for education and early childhood development. It includes a pledge of an additional $25 million, subject to a match, for a total of $150 million. Jackie Bezos, Jeff Bezos’s mother, is a former board member of Robin Hood.

The donation goes to a cause New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has long advocated for: expanded childhood education. After campaigning on the issue throughout the Democratic primary and into the general election last year, the mayor announced last month that 2-K programming, free early care, and education starting at age 2, would be free and universally accessible year-round.
