Good things have happened to me when I don’t tell anyone. Ironic.

I’ve been raising the alarm to my family but of course I’m told I’m overreacting. Just like when I warned them about the upcoming pandemic in the early days of COVID and was brushed off. It’s so tiresome always being right.

Are you retired? If not, what do you do? What was you biggest challenge when you moved and how did you address and overcome it?

The party that is obsessed with child sex offenders, & is close to a cult that claims child sex offenders run the government, just nominated a guy once investigated for allegedly sex-trafficking a 17 year old girl to be in charge of the country’s legal system.

Beyond parody.

As a Russian expat speaking to my fellow Amerifriends, I need you all to know that this shit is very likely for the rest of your life. Don't dismiss this as hysteria/hyperbole. My family and I have dealt with this our whole lives. In this thread are some ways to prepare.

This is a great poem by Danielle Coffyn.

IF ADAM PICKED THE APPLE

IF ADAM PICKED THE APPLE
There would be a parade,
a celebration,
a holiday to commemorate
the day he sought enlightenment.
We would not speak of
temptation by the devil, rather,
we would laud Adam's curiosity,
his desire for adventure
and knowing.
We would feast
on apple-inspired fare:
tortes, chutneys, pancakes, pies.
There would be plays and songs
reenacting his courage.

But it was Eve who grew bored,
weary of her captivity in Eden.
And a woman's desire
for freedom is rarely a cause
for celebration.

Mouthwashing is the best psychological horror game in years. It’s going to stay with me for a while, just like Detention. It’s truly a masterpiece.
