i made a post on nextdoor not even asking for help -- just saying hey, covid is in the neighborhood, it sucks, please remember us sad waifish immunocompromised sods and schedule your boosters, i am indebted for everything everyone's done so far to manage the pandemic -- and within a few hours a lady i haven't spoken to before (but whose profile has a long legitimate posting/comment history) DMed me telling me she was sorry to hear i'm sick and she could drop off some groceries at my apartment if we need them in the next few days. wah 🥺

#apparently i'm likely to keep testing positive for A While and i'm the only one who drives so #i am pretty likely to use my nextdoor network for some extended errand coordination #i've worked really hard to build up a rapport with people on that app by being friendly kind understanding educational and active #offering help to neighbors in distress or giving rides to emergency shelters during freak weather or coordinating water drives etc #i get out all my bitchery over here so i can be trusted over there because my intentions are in fact good #(intentions: give back to the place i live bc it's the right thing to do and bc that makes it easier to muster support in crisis)#but anyway. wah. people around here are so genuinely goodhearted for the most part #trolls on the app get the most attention bc comment debates lead to 'trending' posts. but 98% of ppl are just sweet and decent #nextdoor adventures #autoimmune tag #covid posting
