The app for independent voices

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.

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.

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.”

Those who remain in the US can look forward to their ultimate subjugation amid general dereliction. It should have been clear after November 2020 that they can't prevent the outcome by participating in what is now a voting charade.

Have you considered moving to Florida? It might as well be a country unto itself.

Is there anywhere in FL without crushing humidity, that isn't real estate just for gazillionaires? That's the deal breaker.

I will admit the humidity is awful 4 months out of year. But the other 8 are nearly perfect.

I believe you're in CA. The real estate here is way cheaper.

The most affordable place is Lakeland. It is awesome and starting to boom.
