Love is needed but romance is not. I am all for romantic gestures and getting surprises from my man but I value security, trust, and respect more than romance. I always felt real love was a choice and a commitment in and of itself. So long as both people are holding up their ends of the marriage...

I mentioned before that I am hoping to get my own spot and put money down on a house next year. I have been looking into options and talking to some real estate people. I don't have a lot of stuff but looking around, I feel like I am going to be so overwhelmed when I move. Does anyone have...

I am still waiting on those ocean trains. That would impress me more. This is cool but I worry what damages will result in the first 5 to 10 years of launching these. Just have to hope there are smart people operating them I guess.

I closed my account in 2019. If they ever give me a reason to go back, I will put it here but as of now, I have no social media home outside of forums like this one.

I never had a smartwatch. I am not a big fan of wearing devices. Maybe that is just me. I see the benefits of them but I wouldn't really make much use of them anyway. I am finding myself using my phone less and less as well. Probably for the better.

Windows 11 is like the Walmart knock-off version of Linux and Apple. I get what they were going for and it does look nicer but I am good on going back. I will happily stay a Linux girl.

I am soooo good on that! I probably would have taken a hammer to it. I just don't trust technology like this, not when there are snakes out there looking to have control over our lives and our spending.

Let me know if you end up getting anything and it is good. I like to keep track of sellers on places like that who do a good job so I can recommend them to other people.

The point was saying that a relationship built on lust that has no friendship will never last. I have a friend who is married and she always says she married her best friend. You can see the friendship is real with them. They are completely bonded on all levels so nothing and no one can break them.

I am all for taxes that support on a state level. Like to help those who can't work, funding that goes to fixing public spaces, funding police and firefighters, to fund public schools... But all too often do I see people get taxed and live in crappy areas where there is little to no funding...

I thought this would be a good thread to have. A way to share news stories and talk about people who have done some pretty amazing things. I am ashamed to say I am only just hearing about the work of Mashudu Tshifularo. I want to start with him for this thread. You can read more about him...

Prince had one of the kindest hearts in the music industry. I believe both he and MJ were abused as children be it sexually or not. You can kind of tell when someone has damage under the surface.

I watched this growing up with my brother. Tried to get back into it in like 2016 and I just couldn't do it. The product is just so bad. Not even my brother who was a life-long fan watches it anymore. He said he only watches AEW now. I never looked into it to know if it is any good.

I am aware I am being tracked on my phone, card, etc. I just want to minimize the tracking as much as possible. I know even if I never went on the internet or owned a smartphone, I would still get tracked through bank and credit cards. Even if I opted to not use either, I still have to get my...

If you want some kind of security setup, do it yourself. Have it be stored on your own cloud system or saved to a personal PC. You don't want a company like this to have video footage on you. The way things are heading, I know I won't be feeding the tech overlords any more information than I...

Check on etsy. I have a few friends who only get their costumes on there. There are some great designers and costume makers on the platform. You pay more but you get some solid costumes out of it. If I dressed up, that is where I would shop. I don't have the skills to make my own.

They want to have control so they don't have to order us to do what they want by force. A lot of people, out of fear, will follow their orders willingly when they realize they won't have access to food, water, shelter, or electricity. Heck, the internet is probably enough for some people to just...

Same! I am all for being lead but I want a leader who can allow me to flourish with my guard down and not have to worry. I was with a guy who had me acting like a crazy person in the past. I just couldn't trust him so both of us ended up unhappy.

That is basically what I mean here. You don't put sexual stuff on the table. You keep the romance and everything under lock until you get to know each other more and care for each other without it altering your perception. We often will get gaslighted by our own self-will because the romance...

I always liked the concept of being friends with someone first before dating them. It establishes a bond without the entanglements of lust, romance, and infatuation. It doesn't come easy though. Most of the time, you will know if you are interested in making something more or not right away and...
