Not at all. And that should not happen. I know dentists can be hard to find but I would report her and not go back.

I get it. There's a fine line between hoarding and collecting.

Yes yes yes. I think anyone who has to go through that gets a big case of "I don't want to leave that for whoever has to deal with my stuff".
I took a lot of my parents stuff, (a truckload + car + boat) and within 5 years was jettisoning most of it.

Can confirm the anxiety part and the rest of it.

I'm in the US so can't speak for Welsh folks but I hope everyone treats you as a national treasure for writing these books!!

Edit: "This is NOT that"

in Cherokee (NC) today & will "have an elder look at it for me".
Unless she happens to be friends w/a tribal member who's fluent in written Cherokee (not a given if they speak the language) what, she's just gonna pop into "Ask an Elder" & look like THAT white lady?? FFS this is SO OFFENSIVE! /end

serpent myths, this was found in what would have been Shawnee territory and would have nothing to do with the Adena culture-it was likely circa 1980's ghost hunters.
And I took Cherokee (part of my heritage) language classes. This is that.
THE WORST PART is that this person said she will be....

Needed to scream into the void:
Museum members trying to sus out what these symbols are (also an Hindu god and a crudely drawn snake) and someone said with authority it was Cherokee, was found near the serpent mounds (Adena culture) and Cherokees have a serpent myth.

EVERY culture has... cont.

I'm guessing it's more a "spiritual" thing.... LOL

Just beware, some modern druids can be pretty insufferable-not just their hats.

Yeah I had plans to drive an hour away and I'm like "nope not now".

Search for Donald Trump shows No results found for “Donald Trump”. Try a different search term, or read about how to use search filters.

I'm not sure what this is about but, right now, you can search anything you want here and find posts.
But search Donald Trump and you get NOTHING.
Is that YAY let's just pretend the bastard doesn't exist? Or is that "nothing to see here, move along, this is not the nuclear war you're looking for"?

Just in case, if things get weird tonight Gonzo, it's been very nice knowing you, and you helped me get over the death of my kitteh boy back in 2021.
I appreciate you.

Came back to say, Welp, if the orange clown is going to throw the nucIear football,
It's been nice knowing you all.
I truly didn't think this level of insanity would arrive this fast. But we all know he will do anything to keep from being tried on sex crimes. If we live that long 🌊 in Nov. 100%!

You're a MOM!!

Also, Reddit.com with adblockers is pretty awesome as well. And it's not image or "buy my thing" based, it's subject based, and pretty much EVERYONE is anonymous.

As of early 2025, Bluesky has experienced a surge in spam and bot networks, with researchers identifying specific networks containing thousands of fake accounts. While the exact total number of bot accounts is not publicly disclosed, around 44% of top-followed accounts faced impersonation issues, and over 370,000 accounts were flagged for review in early 2025. Key Findings on Bluesky Bot and Fake Accounts: Active Spam Networks: Research identified a network of at least 8,070 fake accounts in January 2025, often with bios in Portuguese or Brazilian, engaged in spam-for-hire activities. Impersonation Problem: A study found that 44% of the top 100 most popular accounts on Bluesky had at least one doppelgänger (impersonator). High-Volume Mitigation: According to the 2025 Transparency Report, 370,140 accounts were flagged with a "needs-review" label in 2025 to combat large-scale spam and automated bot behavior.

Apparently there are some pretty heavily racist accounts here as well.

@bsky.app has approx. 226 employees. So yeah, don't hold your breath.

The prepper advertisers have squeeze that turnip to death. Now it's Armageddon sales tactics!

CA to Orlando, Orlando to NY state, NY to Calif. Several trips up and down the west coast, CA to MI and back, CA to SC, and GA to CA. Can ya tell I was a military wife? LOL.
Not to mention CA to St. Louis and back every other year as a kid bc family.

I hope you'll post more on the Discord. I am going to miss a few people here but it's becoming too much of an open sewer and the harassment is increasing. Fake accounts can have it.

Trying to get rid of a pesky troll with big narcissism and a tiny dick is not worth my time. The echo chambers that he creates daily to tell no one how smart he is, are boring.
The garden is calling and I have other things to do.
I'll BE ON THE DISCORD Weirdos.
T minus 24 hours and counting...

I commented on a friend's post here and seconds later, one of these accounts (the "affinity scams" I made a separate post about) reposted it.

Oh and Sac to Orlando FL too...

Detroit to Sacramento, straight through, two drivers, no idea on the time. That was the week the Berlin Wall fell.
Saratoga Springs NY to Sacramento CA. No idea on time, but we did get lost in Canada.
Sac to Columbia SC. Several days. We did stop because we had a car, and a Uhaul+Car/trailer.

Here's a post about "Affinity scams". I had people that follow my friends here comment or REPOST my short replies twice yesterday.
They are bots who have a NINE MINUTE life cycle.
They get removed, they come back.
Fucking WILD. And it's yet another crazy reason that using @bsky.app is IMPOSSIBLE.

SO @safety.bsky.app @bsky.app and the way it's set up, make it EASY for people to troll and harass, easy for hate-replying bots, easy for people to "collect accounts" and you have to opt out (see this...)

This fucking site is a nightmare.
