Not sure how many people on this platform know I run a website, mostly for people who were bereft after the closure of our beloved The-Toast.net back in July 2016. The-Toast's commenting community was a joy and it grieves me that the comments are no longer viewable (seriously, it makes me really honestly very very sad). When The-Toast Powers That Be shuttered the site, I started clevermanka.net so those who wanted would still have a place to connect. Our numbers have (predictably) dwindled since 2016, but there's still about a dozen of us who interact.
I have a fairly regular Monday through Friday posting schedule: Mondays used to be a Feminist History post but the (incredibly generous) person who wrote those the first year moved on so now it's a targeted discussion about a particular topic, advice or sometimes a guest post. Tuesdays are just a link to my Tumblr collection (until I give up on Tumblr), Wednesdays we catch up on The Hellscape of Personal Growth but it often devolves into general conversation. Thursdays are a link dump of stuff I've found or been sent that I think might be of interest to the cm.net community. Fridays are Open Thread where anything goes.
We're very friendly if anyone wants to join us over there. In order to be approved for unmoderated comments you have to apply for an IntenseDebate or WordPress account, sorry, but I'm not terrible at approving comments in a somewhat timely manner if you don't want to do that.
Not trying to get people to jump ship from here or anything, just letting you know there's a community of supportive, progressive people there if you're looking for new internet friends in other places.
