Uuuuuggghhh do you know what I mean when you just hate everything and everyone for a minute? I am trying to be alone and I am suddenly mad at everyone who is around me. Family, neighbors, people outside, men in my inbox. Grrrr.

ETA: I’m all better now 🥰 (elapsed time, 1 hr)

I’m watching the news about how one person in a hotel room has put up billboards trying to appeal to emotions to not steward the old growth forests because the species in play is a cute owl - and Christine Drazen is like “Kotek gave cuts to data centers” but the ad used AI to create the images on the screen 🙈 all these stupid people in suits on the screen, what’s new I guess.

Yooooooooo - whattttttt?!

Okay I admit I am not rural raised. I am a city person that was Good ‘N Ruralized in college and now I want some sheep and some bee boxes.

Looking for people interested in sustainable agriculture that is what I was into in collage. I am considering working as a wine intern? I’m not sure where I am heading next.

Please note I am a hippy by my nature, I am a humanitarian that doesn’t like to eat meat more than one time a day and I am very open minded but not able to talk to people that are violent for my own safety.

Hi, posts keep popping up on my feed asking where to get pet slugs. I live in the PNW and made a slug terrarium. Is there interest in keeping these as pets nationwide?

The slugs are plentiful. Less than before as it is becoming drier. But I could cultivate them and manyyyyyyyy types of moss.

Interest?

I went to a very enlightening and connecting community grief ritual yesterday in Portland for the wildfires. I posted here earlier about the smoke bringing back the grief of 2020 Santiam wildfires that I did not have the means to evacuate from.

I saw there were previous community grief rituals in Corvallis? If you hear wind of an upcoming one I think it was worth the experience.

Hi I am 28F, I’m on that part of my cycle where I can’t stop daydreaming about having a baby and being a mother, having a family, etc. Women have a 28 day cycle but men have a 24 hr cycle. Does this mean you feel this way everyday?

Woohoo I am so hopeful this will help finally.

Twice I have done this now 😩

I have the wildflowers for a cut garden seed bag, I love zinnias. Has this brand grown for you? I struggle with getting wildflowers to grow from seed mix. Thanks!

Just cracked open “Linus Pauling on Peace: A Scientist Speaks Out on Humanism and World Survival” written by his very smart son.

I’m not sure which part of the state is on fire now, if you have sources I’m happy to read. I just want to extend compassion for all who survived the Santiam fires. I lived through the beechie creek + lionshead fire and it was some of the scariest and heartbreaking time of my life.

Hi y’all, I was a student living off Monroe from 2016-2021. The smoke has brought up so many awful memories of the Lionshead + Beechie Creek fires. Did you know they called it a “megafire”??? I want to extend some compassion for all as we experience more fires.

Good lord what an awful experience I used every tool I could think of from DBT, CBT, IFS, medication, calling the peer support line, and had to dabble into SH and drinking. Thankfully I had an appointment with my very kind therapist in the morning but UGH I do not enjoy dating. Everyone sucks at it including me 😆

I thought “I feel like I’m living on Mars” because I just don’t understand how people without BPD just don’t feel emotions this strongly. Wdym “it isn’t that big of a deal,” everything is a big deal, good or bad 😭 like on one hand yes the sensitivity is excruciating but on the other can people like learn to feel a little more? I feel so alienated from other humans, emotionally

Then quickly fled back to the safety of my hellhole room strewn with laundry. Says small triumph but ofc I have to feel like I did a bad job and am bound to be abandoned and my mind is over analyzing everything

Any resources on what to include on a relationship contract? Has anyone written a book on how to negotiate the contact? Thanks!
