as well as most of the democrats and their refusal to enact the equal rights amendment.

is this from the handmaids tale?

please say it is so that i can feast of the irony. lol

Humans need a good balance but many just want to see if grass is greener on other side.

this makes the most sense to me because that's what i did. life had taught me that being queer, autistic and brown is boring AF in urban enough environments; but it REALLY makes those hens gossip in the country side and the ppl forcing you to conform because they refuse accept your true expression of yourself is a prison of its own. to make matters worse: that 1 factory; 4 MASSIVE beef & pork farms; and plantation that employ 80% of the population will fuck up your air & water worse than the city thanks to a friendly local government that gives them passes. having to drive 5 hours to the nearest water source, to spend another 2 hours filling up, and then another 5 hour drive back every month is galling when there's a natural stream nearby that the local gov't makes illegal to take from.

i wanted to see if the grass was greener in the core of several cities and found that, yes, very much so for someone like me.

what's different?

it's easier to shut off your water if doesn't come from a natural source and your chances are almost negligible against the majority; much less against an imported army.

nature isn't as bad as people; you can atleast try to prepare of it.

out in the middle of nowhere, people can and do make sure that you can't prepare for them.

it's the same story as it is every where capitalism is in charge: rich people want to get richer by taking land that isn't theirs; they get the local gov't to cut off water and salt the land to make people leave; then people leave.

you'll get one or 2, but the rest will just cut off your supply to water/food and wait until you come out from dehydration or starvation and then get what they want from you.

i grew up in the middle of nowhere in the mojave desert; i've had my fill of nature for the rest of my life.

either the nature or the solitude

i think this is why i don't get it: growing up in the middle of nowhere taught me that nature can fuck you over in an instant multiple times and living in suburbia gave me a cold & painful dose of reality when it comes to solitude.

i suppose it looks nice if you've never experienced enough of the dark sides of nature and solitude.

only if you're lucky.

humans are much worse.

We just gotta keep working within the system to get it better
