I just read the sifi chat discussion of this meta post. Lots of love to you ❤

@ArthurHavlicek ehh don't assume mods already saw it if they haven't interacted :p
sometimes I'll wait for other people to suggest it first, especially if it's borderline (the "showing off" part is what made me unsure too). since some users go "oh, a mod said that, I better repost it without trying to edit/discuss further"
Can someone help me, I have trouble understanding a comment
> Thinking about this more, I'm not understanding why the NVC process doesn't work. Isn't the result of the discussions you're talking about supposed to be a request for the whole of whatever body is to be subject to it?
I usually try to live by and follow non-violent communication (NVC) principles in my interactions with others. I don't always express myself following a "Observation / Feeling / Need / Request" pattern, but I do follow a few values of NVC: absence of judgement and power relations, trying to fulfi...
I have a relative, with which I had bad behaviour. Not rude, not mean, just that I had not the good words, I did not send much text messages, and thus I was not there when this relative needed me (no big issues were faced, though).
Now, I have an awkaward relation with this relative: I usually m...

I work in this section and this section requires an access card when entering the door (anyone can buy one, but it is expensive). Inside this section is many expensive equipments.
