I started a petition asking the U.S. to physically secede from Washington DC and relocate the federal capital to a neutral location—Lake America, which already has a 7,300-square-mile reflection pool built in.

Look, I know it sounds bold. But think about it: DC has become so entrenched in partisan division that it's hard to imagine objective governance happening there anymore. Moving to a neutral, geographically centered location could actually shift how decisions get made—less politics, more pragmatism. Plus, there's massive economic potential. Building a new capital from scratch means construction jobs, tech innovation, sustainable design. That's real investment in American infrastructure and industry.

The idea is simple: rebrand the current DC, establish a new capital that symbolizes a fresh start, and design it for the 21st century. Smart city tech, sustainability, inclusion—all the things we say we want but never actually build.

Does anyone else feel like our political system is fundamentally broken at this point? Like, not in a "I disagree with the other side" way, but in a "the structure itself is preventing progress" way? If this resonates with you, I'd genuinely appreciate if you'd consider signing and sharing. If you think this is completely off-base, I'm curious what you'd actually want to see change.

I’m looking for feedback on an idea before I continue building it.

I’m autistic and have ADHD, and I often end up with information scattered across notes, bookmarks, spreadsheets, screenshots, and documents. I wanted something that lets me build rich lists without feeling like I’m managing a database. Although, I do enjoy making spreadsheet in a creative way.

The idea is that each list item can have as much information as you want.
- links
- images (URLs)
- notes
- tags
- ratings
- categories
- custom fields, and more
But what is important to me is the interface stays simple. Easy to browse and easy to use.

You can make a basic list in a few minutes or build a detailed collection over time. But I want several options. You could make it simple and choose a theme or go all out and design your own via colors and such.

Some examples would be:
- favorite restaurants
- sensory-friendly places
- coping strategies
- books
- games
- recipes
- accessibility resources
- travel ideas
- hobby collections
- comparison (left vs right)
- versus (top vs bottom)
- phone contacts list (export)
- calendar list (export)
- poll (interactive)

As the creator you could rate the list entries or make it so others can “like” the entries (not the list itself).

The goal isn’t to replace notes or spreadsheets. It’s to make collections easier to organize and revisit. You could share your list to someone else.

I’m curious:

1. Is this something you’d actually use?

2. What kinds of lists do you keep now?

3. What’s frustrating about the tools you’re currently using?

4. Is there anything you’d immediately want a tool like this to do?

One of the reason I am doing this is because my memory is very bad. I remembered a long time ago, probably when Xanga was still around, there was a website that let me picked my favorite movies and make a list of them. I thought it was so cool… I had an easy to access list of movies I could share with people if I wanted, and the movies had images. Then the site went away. My list went away. A part of me went away because I don’t remember all the movies I liked… Twenty three years later I like more movies…

Here’s the thing, I like Anime… but when people are talking about it I really have nothing to say because I don’t remember what I have watched. I couldn’t even tell you what I watched a week or two ago. 🥹

That’s become a much larger issue for me, because now I’m working on a larger project outside of this list project and I have been bookmarking videos of multiple platforms and can’t find any when I need them. They are spread throughout so many mediums…

I want to make a single site/app where I can make a lot of lists and favorite other lists. An all in one keeping organized thing.

But do others want something like this?

I am currently working on the front-end now making the lists actually editable outside of the text document.

It has filtering. The list entries open and close for more information. There is a lot to it currently.

I have examples of lists but for my self I’m going to make my favorite movies and favorite things… but also, I have been working on a curated list of videos by therapists and doctors for people to watch that are of interest to those with ND traits. I want to find things like how to manage time better or what could help with memory issues… etc.

I kind of just hope I’m not doing this for my self. I think the public could use something like this. At least, I wish I had something like it. So far it’s been roughly six months in the making.

P.S.:
Outside of lists, I do want to make a quick notepad area where you can timestamp your notes to refer to later or drag to a list. With ADHD I have to take notes fast.

Hello,

I have asked, no response, to take over this subreddit. It was made before 2024 saying it is estimated to come out in 2024. (Edit: it was made in 2024 and hasn’t been touched since)

I am the only member outside of the owner and myself (2 members).

We have a neurodivergent podcast called “Share your Threads” which is using SyT Podcast as the handle. It is on Spotify, Apple, and like six other major podcasting platforms. There are four episodes so far and we are in the process of recording the next set.

I would like it to be on my [u/neur0loom](u/neur0loom) account, though, if I could since the podcast and entire neurodivergent project is operating under the brand name neur0loom (it is about educating ourselves and others using neurodivergent experience in animations, games, and other forms. Providing tools, content, and community) which is both a world in a fantasy IP and the registered trademark brand.

I do want to lowercase the ‘y’ in SYT, though.

My main account is u/DavidKroutArt but this is the account I’d like to be the original mod of it (u/neur0loom)

Link to the Reddit message to the mod:
https://www.reddit.com/chat/room/!rSmuMWZrSTypXp\_vEKG5nA%3Areddit.com

Link to sub Reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/SYTpodcast/s/jgpvIeQDhd

I have 2FA for both accounts now. Both accounts have emails linked but I sign in via Google.

I’d like to take it over so people can discuss the podcast and ask questions about it. Basically, a more specified area than r/neur0loom because some people may not care about the project as a whole and may care more about the podcast alone. It could keep the area from being diluted with random messages if people only care about the podcast.

Is it possible to have a public subreddit that may have NSFW but never shows up to people if it is tagged as such?

I’d like to make a topic that includes a lot of forms and I know a lot of the audience will not want to see NSFW… and many actually will want to…

Basically, they would have to tag it as such and could the tag prevent others from seeing it unless they put it in the filter? Is that possible?
