I dont have a facebook. I do reddit some but not much.

Most of my online time is on Wikipedia.

And im somewhat embarrassed to be the first person to admit this on this thread, but i also spend a good deal of my internet time on 4chan. When you look past the porn and gore you get a great insight as to what the younger people of the world are thinking and concerned about. Also a great place to get news that hasn't been tainted and influenced by the major corporations.

I've started to listen to podcasts from thisamericanlife.org. They have the most kick ass stories and documentaries.
Real life can be hilarious if you have a sense of humor. A dark sense of humor.

I frequent bN (bannination), which is a spin-off of Fark rejects. It's an interesting group. Lots of herrr and derp over there. Most recently I joined a cello forum since I just started playing cello, but they're kind of dickish snobs over there. Not sure if I'll stay.
But, as you well know, appearances can be deceiving, which brings me back to the reason why we're here. We're not here because we're free. We're here because we're not free. There is no escaping reason; no denying purpose. Because as we both know, without purpose, we would not exist.

I've been a goon on Something Awful for nearly a decade, and still hang out there a lot. They're mostly atheists so it fits, heh.

I also hang out on the exjw subreddit on reddit.com now, and found some people in my area through it. The community now also has an IRC chat room on freenode at #r.exjw.

Mostly, though, I hang out in my support group chat channel that I started about 5 years ago. I have bipolar disorder and I started the chat room as a safe, no pressure place for people with mental health issues. We're in #psychiatrichelp on irc.synirc.net if you wanna come hang out in the funny farm. :D

I'll be peeking in here in the future. Glad I found you guys. I pop into facebook once or twice a day but I have a busy life and don't find too much time to waste online.

Namaste

During my men tal illness stage I joined a forum for people with mental illness. My advice? don't unless you want to stay depressed etc for the rest of your life. It was soooooooooooooooooooo depressing. I just like it here when not much is happening as I find it uplifting, at times very funny as well as deeper moments when you can upbuild yourself and others.
