when i was young, i was in a bad car accident where i had a head injury. someone stopped and held a shirt against my head and held my hand till the ambulance got there. I'll never meet them, but I'll never forget it.

yes, when i was around 18-20 i had very strong deja vu all the time where i knew what would happen next, like I've lived it before. down to knowing the exact words/tone people were about to say, things they'd end up doing, etc.

now, I'll get that same feeling but it doesn't result in correct predictions anymore. no idea why it used to, but it was always weird.

I'm talking about the 70 year olds voting for things that will never affect them because they will die before they see the consequences. not infertile women. why should we let outdated mentalities affect those of us with over half our lives left? that's how we lost abortion access.

i also support age limits for those holding political office :)

I'm disabled, not apathetic. i am physically not in a position to do that, although i support it fully. it's not cool to judge people when you have no idea what their life is like. i would love to be more politically involved but all my energy is going toward not losing my job, and keeping my family fed and clothed.

what plan exactly are we supposed to have? most of us can't afford to leave the country, and that's the only plan that i can think of. we're all hostage in this capitalist hellscape.

I'm pretty sure smoking weed isn't federally illegal, just possession.

do NOT do this until you are away from your family. cops are exceptionally bad at handling this stuff

i finally convinced my doctor that I'm in so much pain now that i can't sleep or take care of myself properly. she referred me to rheumatology to get tested for Ehler Danlos, and started me on 2 medications which have cut my pain in half in just a week. I'm starting to have hope that I'll get some answers and treatment!!
