Dear r/BenignExistence Community,

I hope this message finds you as you are, quietly living through the humdrum of daily life. As we continue to share and engage in this space, it’s important to reflect on what unites us: the celebration of the benign, the truly mundane aspects of our existence.

This subreddit was conceived as a counterpoint to spaces like r/mildlyinteresting, r/interestingasfuck, and r/notinteresting, offering us a place to appreciate the often overlooked moments that characterize our routine lives.

Dear r/BenignExistence Community,

I hope this message finds you as you are, generally mindlessly alive. As we continue to share and engage in this space, I find it important to revisit what brings us together here: the celebration of the benign, the truly mundane aspects of our existence.

This subreddit was born as a counterpoint to spaces on the spectrum of r/mildlyinteresting, r/interestingasfuck, and r/notinteresting, offering us a place to notice the generally forgotten moments of being a lukewarm human being.

Hello r/BenignExistence community,

As part of the moderation team, I recently reviewed our mod queue and found myself disheartened by the tone and content of some submissions. There seems to be a growing presence of anger, aggression, and distressing messages within our discussions. While it’s natural to seek support, I am concerned about the volume of self-destructive notes and cries for help that may exceed what our community is equipped to handle.

Though there are many organizations that will accept items in good condition, there are very few that will accept non-functioning items - and because these organizations don't want to deal with broken goods, your "donations," can end up right in their dumpster.

I am looking for support from the community in the form of donated broken or unused small appliances and electronics. If anyone has anything they are willing to let go of, please DM me or leave a comment and I'll reach out to you.

Regards, and happy holidays,

TM
