*I* do not, and if there’s one, then surely there’s more like me? :-P
Moreover, I think it’s impressive that you have dedicated so much of your efforts to improving people’s experiences here on the Fediverse. Even if people disagree with you on some point - which for myself I am aware of nothing but even if there were - that would still be true. You probably don’t get thanked often, so I offer it, and I hope that you will accept.
But also, I hope that you find a way to show kindness to yourself too:-). Our families may have royally fucked us up for life, but we can do different, for ourselves! Or at least, I very much (desperately) hope that can be true.
I try to show kindness through my volunteer work, although I’ve done less of it in the past year since my illness leave me with very little energy and I have to use that to take care of my daughter.
Indeed, I find that if we don’t take care of ourselves, we become a burden to others and can’t help anyone, so that’s so important to remember (that if we want to help “others”, it has to start with ourselves).
Reminds me of this one:
I don’t have to ask. I just assume whoever I’m talking to hates me.

That tracks.
Get out of my head!
Oh man, some written phrases you can just hear!
Too real
