Out of ashes
Scrubbed raw
The dirt tilled
New seeds sprouted
But every hopeful
New
Is only emergent
Threads cut
Old ties ache
The wind ripped
The oldest roots
Thrown away
Ideas like vines
Silence cutting
Floating listless
Crumbly, Faulty
Daydream interactions
Just one moment
To laugh with you

The sickening side to the coin is they mostly want women out of the workforce and back home as housewives, unable to vote. Heritage foundation's goal is the 1880's. Therapeutic/rehab/nursing professions are dominated by women.
Under new Trump administration rules, students won't be able to borrow as much for medical or nursing school or some other health professions.
New limits on school loans could narrow physician and nurse pipeline, educators warn

SCOOP — Members of DC National Guard are preparing to carry M17 pistols, multiple sources confirm to me.
This follows earlier reports that the guard reversed course and would soon be arming members in DC. Now we know they’re making sure they meet requirements if/when the order to arm them comes.

Everyone is going
to die
Someday I
Wish for the meteor
Instant heat is
Hard to beat
I'd like to be
Incinerated
Before I could know
I'll become
A shadow
On a wall
Ash dusted like snow
Easy to disappear
When you feel
Like nothing at all
to die

I had a dream
About broken things
I pressed a button I know does not work
And it played music I have yet to finish
My dead father remarked how
Beautiful it was,
A low whistle

I just want to see my family and friends. Why does everything bad happen when my life has the one nice thing planned? Just the one nice thing. But we can't have that, no. Not without extreme problems also. I gladly put on positivity most days, but I am not so sure I can right now.

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

Finding my happy thoughts. Admired the haze of purple flowers raining down the street. Felt the sun as I ran. Felt my body move in resistance exercise. Nice food, games and laughs. Time off and personal lists to accomplish soon... while the world is chaos, my life is still here and doing okay.

We still want to ask people to play (hang) after school (work) but more than we used to, because we're very lonely as grown ups. People are still immature or avoidant. Bullies are less of a threat, but ever present. Adults have just learned what matters and what not to mess with.

We do not eat a credit card’s worth of plastic a week. This doesn’t pass even the most basic sniff test but also the paper everyone is quoting doesn’t even say that we ingest that much plastic and I’m sick of hearing it in credible places!!!

Watched Notting Hill for the first time since high school..I have a bad memory so... I have questions- Who is chef Tony? Why do Honey/Spike randomly wanna get married having had no interactions? I yearned for a bittersweet ending of them going separate ways. What a weird time it was in 1999.

Dystopia is when people you know ask about burner phones for flying internationally. Wondering what local flying will be like. Worrying if summer will be when we'll feel the weight of it all.

Unfortunately your statement is true and California has like 2 actually good bagel places.
It would be completely irresponsible of me to state in a public forum like this that a really good bagel and cream cheese can cure depression for a little bit so I will definitely not do that now
