It's okay to have a benign existence.

Share your stories of the vanilla and mundane happenings of your life.

WHAT TO POST?

The preferred topic is experiences you have that are perhaps relatable but do not necessarily evoke a strong reaction.
Please keep your submissions to mainly text posts. If you really want to submit a link or picture, though, consider placing it in the body of a text post and tell us more about it.

RULES

+BenignExistence is a place to share the ordinary, everyday events of your life, and posts should be authentic and non-sensational. Reposting goes against this ethos. It's okay to post about something that has been discussed previously (e.g. "My SO made spaghetti for lunch again"); It's NOT okay to copy an old post word-for-word.

Breaking this rule (and rule 2 below) will first result in a temporary ban, but repeated infractions will result in a permanent ban.

+The following topics are not allowed and will be removed: • Venting or rants • Strong emotions, negative or positive • NSFW topics • Major life events (e.g., marriage, death, birth, or breakups) • Political debate • Relationship-focused content • Discussion of medical issues or procedures • Discussion of legal issues or disputes

(This list is not exhaustive. Mods may remove posts that receive reports or as required by Reddit Rules. If you think an error has been made, contact mod mail.)

+Don't harass other users, name call, make offensive or intrusive comments, or be unnecessarily unkind in general. Pretty basic! We can disagree, but be respectful.

Temporary bans later resulting in permanent bans may be used at first, or permanent bans immediately if the infraction is serious enough.

+This is an inclusive and safe space. No racism, no homophobia, no transphobia, no bigotry of any kind. There will be automatic bans for any behavior of this sort.

+Again, this is a safe space. Do not follow people to DMs to sexually harass them. There will also be automatic bans for this.

+r/BenignExistence follows platform-wide Reddit Rules. No disruptive use of bots or AI.

+Relationships can be a sensitive topic for users so the community has decided against hosting this content. Please check out r/findareddit to view other options for sharing relationship posts.

+Posts or comments involving sales, promotion, or solicitation of any kind are not allowed. This includes passive, indirect, or “soft” promotion.

This restriction exists because such activity tends to attract bots and scams, and it’s not possible for the moderation team to reliably verify third-party offers.

+Please send all subreddit-related inquiries to modmail. Using modmail ensures that every moderator can see your message, so the first available mod can respond promptly. It also helps prevent inconsistencies or duplicate efforts that might otherwise delay a resolution to your inquiry.

Refrain from sending multiple messages about the same inquiry within a 24-hour period. Moderators respond to all messages, and if yours has not yet been answered, it simply means no one has seen it yet.

/r/MalignantExistence/ for the more malignant moments.
/r/pointlessstories - Where storytellers of all kinds share the stories that no one really needs to hear.

If you're feeling other strong emotions you want to share, it probably has a subreddit. Or perhaps /r/howwastoday or /r/CasualConversation. We're not affiliated with them but they seem nice.

If your benign existence has slid into self-destructive existential crisis, please consider seeking support. People can be nice.
