So does that make you a Chest-Nut?

 

Good thing FG is gone. Mr. Chestnut would never survive spirited competition between you two!

 

finished day 31 of my social media detox

 

Glad to see we aren’t on the chopping block.

 

no need to detox from this space, there's not a toxic trace. in my heart and on my mind you all will always have a place

 

You're so sweet xx
I hope the break was helpful to you.
There's some wild back to back stuff going on over there in the States.

 

That's putting it mildly, beccaomecca.

 

thank you it has been good, I think I'll be extending my break

yes

 

My gf has been prescribed meds and is a basket case. She’s waiting for word from her lawyer re a German work visa and will be in the DR from the third week of this month until she hears from the German consulate and /or her attorney. I recommended she take a break from the interwebs, but to no avail. Doomscrolling until 2-3 am and then waking me up to ask questions about government operations until I call time and go back to sleep.

 

doomscrolling isn't great. sorry to hear about what you're dealing with I hope you can convince her to go touch some grass.

 

Hopefully her time in the DR will take the edge off. If not, then I hope 3-4 years in Germany will help. I'm not quite clear where people think they can escape to. So far, I've got four friends and one acquaintance's parent who have succumbed to this terror. I haven't seen anything quite like this before and I've been involved in government and politics for nearly 40 years.

 

I feel you, its consuming!

 

The social media thing?

 

Yeah that one

 

It is definitely not the kindest place in the world at the moment.

 

Not at all. My mind is blown to just how much is going down in the States right now. I'm hoping as a result Americans will start moving here! Lol. We need some variety, not just whites, asians and indians.

 

You'd be in 7th Heaven, lol. I wonder how the other Aussies on the forum would feel. Is Tarshi still around these days?

I'm waiting for the inevitable backlash from the other half of the society that is angry about the "expansive" approach to the executive branch taken by this administration.

 

Mate, I'm it lol. My fellow Aussies have run into the sunset with their chocolate kings never to return lol. I think she's been gone for years to be honest. I think she was around in the lit days.

I can't even say I'm glad to be in Australia lol.
