I'm here to build connections with thoughtful and creative people so that I might grow, and also find reasons to pleasantly pass the time.
All photos are mine except reposts.
Searching for authentic wherever it might be.

- Reposted by J Ray RTalking to the Moon I’ve been talking to the moon, not because it answers. The moon listens. Somewhere between my words and it’s light, something softens. The ache doesn’t vanish, but eases a little. I’m not put in the spotlight, but in the glow of the moon.

- Reposted by J Ray RThis is absolutely insane. Trump isn’t even trying in the least bit to cover up his corruption. He might as well just start making withdrawals directly from the U.S. Treasury. Pam Bondi can literally just settle this case and hand Trump billions of the American taxpayers dollars. 😡
