🧵 My adoption journey.
This is a story of sealed records,
a mother found, a father lost,
truths hidden and unearthed,
and the Rubicon I crossed
when I finally said aloud:
adoption isn’t always the answer.

Adoption is weird shit. So I am today years old to find out that my birth father’s brother, my uncle played for the Denver Broncos.
My best friends dad was a scout for the SD Chargers and he took me to home games.
I saw my uncle play pro football and I found out today.
The game was in 1979

In the last 12 months I've had 3 surgeries with 2 shoulder replacements. A month ago I experienced new shoulder pain which may be another fracture. How have I coped? Playing WoW and taking screenshots with my arm resting on a pillow as it heals. Don't ever say gaming doesn't help mental health. ❤️

Taking off masks makes you vulnerable
Putting them back on is impossible
Walking out of the house today because stigma is easier than understanding and boundaries
I’m a bit scared
I like routines
I have to learn a new one
I’ll be around those who do understand
Only the dog came to say goodbye

I posted this on Craigslist. I’m looking to live somewhere quiet where I can write my plays, smoke a little weed, and play a game on the computer. I live in Wilmington NC, but just realized I’m open to anywhere in the country.

You know it’s greed when apartments charge insane amounts and keep raising rents then to maintain occupancy rates lower the bar from 25-30% of income to 60%.
Yes you can now rent an apartment for 60% of your income.

Oh say, can you still hear them sing,
From the towns that the headlines forgot,
Where the porch lights stay on for the ones who are gone,
And the echoes remember their spot.
Whose prayers fill the night where the lost used to sleep,
I shall not rest till we learn how to sing them home again.

Adoptive parents always say they love their adopted child like their own but if they truly did then they would care about that child knowing their identity and biological family just like the parents would with their biological children. #adopteevoices

Can anyone explain how the post office can’t deliver a package and mark it unable to access mailbox, but the mail was in the box. Like was it too much to just grab it and stuff it in the box.

Anyone ever take a minute and read the short descriptions of Nobel Peace prize winners?
One thing stands out.
Trump and his lackeys are the diametric opposite of every single winner.

Do you think the answer is for it to be state run, or nonprofit only?
I’m guessing there’s a lot of demand for some types of children and an oversupply of others.

Wait until the world boycotts the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
Losses could hit 20 Billion.
This is what a Great America doesn’t look like.
Besides that, countries that do show up will have ICE arrest them at the airport.

Trump will start, or allow WWIII to occur to cover the Epstein Files.
Put it on your calendar somewhere right before the midterms.
In 1989 I read Art of the Deal then told a coworker that Trump will con his way into the White House.
He’s not untouchable, he is insecure, and a criminal.

On the seventh time around we break into a deafening rendition of, Do You Hear the People Sing.
