Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.

Not dying.

Just logging off.

Getting a job no one cares about.

Growing tomatoes.

Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.

Not as a failure.

But as a kind of freedom.

In English, we say: "I overthink."

But in poetry, we say: "I replay your words a thousand times, searching for a meaning you never meant.”

Be bored more often.

Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.

In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.

Great discussions

Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.

Best mental reset I’ve learned:

If your mind is loud — Write.

If your mind is empty — Read.

If your mind is racing — Walk.

If your mind is tired — Sleep.

If your mind is sharp — Build.

Most problems are just mismatched energy. Get the inputs right, the rest follows.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

i love it when a woman slowly steps out of survival mode and starts to fall in love with life again. when her zest for life comes back and when she starts to notice all the magic and blessings around her, it’s the most beautiful thing to witness.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Trump wants death penalty for any illegal migrant who kills a law enforcement officer, police, border agent, FBI, anyone!! BOOM! I love it! Question is, will he be able to do this with a corrupt
Jorge Fernandez's avatar

Okay, a death sentence for an illegal that murders a US citizen - that sounds right and just.

But why even bother? If they are truly "illegal", then why not simply expel them from our country?

That way the murder is *prevented* from ever occurring in the first place.

It's simple logic: allowing for illegals to remain here creates the *opportunity* for the murder.

In any event, obviously some of these illegals *MUST* be booted out. Which ones are "obvious"?

Simple: identify GANG members (by their tat…

The illegals are mostly unjabbed whereas 81% of Americans took the shots. Once illegals cross the border into the jabbed utopia they come into contact with Americans, who shed on them. Then they're f*cked!

I agree fully, all out and complete.

“Whenever someone claims “pharmaceutical companies do not make money from vaccines," make sure to show them this.

Initially, the government's narrative for the COVID19 vaccines was "safe and effective." The word "effective" implies that the COVID19 vaccine was not only effective in preventing you from catching a virus, but it was also effective in stopping the vaccinated from spreading of the virus. The logic there is that since you don't catch the …

Thousands of people studied in Israel shows the double-vaxxed is 27 times more likely to get re-infected. Vaccines are not stopping infections or transmisstions. In UK and Europe, the tripple-vaxxed are most likely to die. Bottomline: natural immunity is long, broad and durable. SARS-COV-1 patients still had immunity 18 years later. Natural immunity is life long.
