Have you just about had it with social media? I had to unfollow one of my stepsisters on Facebook because I just could not stand any more of her obnoxious celebrating over Donald Trump and Elon Musk and how they are sticking it to immigrants and everyone else she hates. Her own husband is on disability, which he will certainly lose if things go on as they are, but her hatred means more to her than her own immediate wellbeing, apparently.

If social media and not just Meta platforms, has taught me anything recently it’s that people are way worse than I even suspected them of being. How can so many people revel in watching others who are in pain? I always wondered how the Nazis could have risen to power, but now I see it’s easy when half the population is rooting for chaos.

I can’t do anything about human nature, but I there is one thing I can do ~ create a space for those of us who are horrified by recent events to organize. At long last I have built my website community, Mandaline Insiders. This is like a Facebook Group without the Facebook! No politics, no strange men tying to chat you up, no ads, no algorithms.

The Mandaline Insiders community is a public group. To keep things easy to monitor and safe, I have limited member interaction to posting in the comments only. I set up a few topics so far and you can comment on the posts to introduce yourself and share your wins. Please feel free to suggest more topics you would like to comment on.

When you’re inside the community you will see other groups you can join. These are either paid, private groups or groups for people who opt into certain forms, like my fasting form. Those groups allow members to post content, more like a full-service community. If you bought my 2025 Income Kickstart or doll repair books or instruction packets through my website you have already been added to the Income Kickstart or Doll University Students groups.

Sign into your Mandaline Customer Center with the email you used to purchase and you will be able to enter your group. If you are getting a funnel showing you need to purchase before you can enter that means you just need to sign in. You should have an email from Mandaline walking you through creating your customer center account.

If you purchased one of my doll repair books or packets from one of my online stores, such as eBay, please send me a screenshot of your receipt to ateliermandaline@gmail.com along with your email address and I will add you manually.
