In The Gloaming TW *just in case*

mytwistedsoul November 7th, 2019

With the tragic loss of the feed and after much debate and discussion. It's been decided to create a new thread. Soul space so to speak. A journal of sorts.

A place where I can dump some of the nonsense that goes on in my head.

While replies are welcome - they aren't necessary.

@LoveMyMoonflowers *clears throat* 😜

A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain

Softly blows o'er Lullaby Bay

It fills the sails of boats that are waiting

Waiting to sail your worries away

It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain

And your boat waits down by the quay

The winds of night so softly are sighing

Soon they will fly your troubles to sea

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain

Wave goodbye to cares of the day

And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain

Sail far away from Lullaby Bay

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain

Wave goodbye to cares of the day

And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain

Sail far away from Lullaby Bay 💙

@slowdecline48 (looks around horrified) 😧 shhhh! Don't say that too loud. I got a bad a** reputation to uphold here! 🤪 😂

Seriously I plan on stealing the neighbor's wife later for a date 😁 kidding kidding 😂 sort of. She wants chinese and her husband doesn't like it so I told her I'd take her for lunch

Oh sh*t that probably doesn't help my reputation at all 😕 maybe I'll make her walk home afterwards 

Thanks Slow

Don't make the poor woman walk home. If her husband isn't giving her the attention she needs, well... 🥒 😈

@slowdecline48 😂 You'll be pleased to know I didn't make her walk all the way home. Just part way 😜 

Nah I wouldn't do that 😂 I was the perfect gentleman 😇
😂😂😂 Omg LMAO nope nope nope! She's pretty far up in years 😂 So yeah I got noooo desires there. She's just really sweet and I help them out when they need it

You can always silently walk up behind him the next chance you get & say "Hi boss!"... Be sure to say it loudly & in a cheery tone of voice. With a smile.

Mental vomit *smh* my brain just puked 😜 not really. I managed to get in trouble again. That used to bother me. Now I just shrug and get slightly p*ssed because it feels like we have to conform here too much. There used to be more freedom with what we write. I get tired of always having to play nice. When it takes hours for someone to delete an offending post what's the point?  The damage is already done

I wonder how many points I have. Demerits because we're all in kindergarten. But let's smile and pretend we're happy because positivity is the flavor of the week and there's cookies and milk 😉

I could've posted that little rant two decades ago, about society in general... These days I'm not as much of a rebel but I see where you're coming from, yeah. Sites like this need rules for all the people with sensitizing conditions, but sometimes they are enforced to the point where they don't make sense.

It is also another consequence of population growth here. Adding more mentally ill people ➡️ exponentially more potential crossed wires in convos, ways to get upset, etc. ➡️ more enforcement of the rules by the slowly coagulating bureaucracy the staff & volunteers are becoming.

1 reply
mytwistedsoul OP May 18th

@slowdecline48 I understand the need for rules. I try to follow them. I don't like is how certain words get thrown around and used inappropriately to tell someone that's what they did. I don't like being accused of something when I know d*mn well that's not what was being done.  I can't even really talk about it here on this page which I made or they'll accuse me of it again. But I can email and plead my case. I'm not sure if it's even worth wasting my time to do so

slowdecline48 May 19th

You could always wear your "demerits" as a badge of honor... When I was on ***.gram (back when I had an account!), I eventually got tired of the rules being enforced arbitrarily. When I caught a warning for a comment I posted, I was rather proud to have received it. Later I got a 2nd one...a fine achievement. 😎 (At that point I didn't give a d**n if my account was banned. Eventually I shut it down in any case)

@slowdecline48 I went that badge route. It's not worth the headache trying to give my side. And tbh I really don't care. I have the vaguest of memory of what was said anyway. So pfft. It is what it is or what it was lol

Very nice work. 👌🏻 You are multitalented, obviously. That can be a curse as much as a gift, though...the more your creative ability extends in different directions, the harder it is to focus on any one medium long enough to become great at it.

@slowdecline48  Thank you and omg yes you are absolutely right. It feels conceited to say I can do a lot of things but my interests do pull me in too many different directions 😕

4 replies
slowdecline48 June 3rd

Yep...I know how it is. Been grappling with the same issue for years now. It would only be conceited to say so if we thought being multitalented was an unmitigated benefit & joy. But you & I both know that's not true.

mytwistedsoul OP June 19th

feelings fade when you live like a ghost

dream in colors that light up the night

but real life shows that it takes away 

and nothing is ever right


how do we live

if nothing is real when we're awake


death plays with it's victim 

through hide and seek

can feel its cold touch when we're weak

souls depart and the sky turns black 

shows you in dreams

all that you lack

the light blinds when we walk through ***

a constant reminder

a ghost in the shell 

know that nothing is real

the pain won't erase

wait for a miracle 

maybe then we can escape 🐾

  1. I didn't know you were into flowers. You must be a skilled gardener.
  2. I knew you were a sweet guy... But seriously, that looks familiar. In the deep South we have a lot of turtles around, as you probably know. I've encountered a few & saved two from getting smashed by oncoming traffic, so far. Will post the stories in my journal if you or anyone else is interested (& if I remember to).

@slowdecline48 Skilled might be a stretch lol. I just like watching things grow. And most of them are pretty self sufficient once they're planted. I do have to protect them from the deer so most are in fenced areas

Duude my cover! ssshhhh 😎 Nah I am a big softy when it comes to animals and I feed pretty much everything around here. That's how I ended up with a cat 🤪 Birds - squirrels - deer - chipmunks. Which I found a random sugar pea plant today growing father away then what I planted them 😁 The squirrels and chipmunks take sunflower seeds and bury them in the woods. Kind of cool to be walking along and see a random sunflower growing 
You're a softy too 😉 It's awesome you rescued them. Most people don't seem to care

slowdecline48 June 27th

@mytwistedsoul You've had moonshine? Now that's country... Have tried it myself, twice. The first time was when I was out in the Midwest. One of our neighbors got it from a local source. It burned going down my gullet at first but it tasted good at the time. Thought I was doing okay...until I went to get up from the table after my 3rd sip. 😵‍💫 😆 Second time was years later...I was hanging out with a friend in Austin & he bought a jar of it from a local maker/dealer...yes, really.

The stuff had an apple slice in it for flavor. It certainly got us smashed but, would you believe, the guy who made it didn't use any barley or corn? Seriously!...he mixed in a lot of sugar into the water & added his yeast to that. *smh* That is no way to make shine. If I ever start fermenting stuff again & get into distillation, you can bet the initial feedstock will never be all sugar.

1 reply
mytwistedsoul OP July 2nd

@slowdecline48 😂 That sounds about right. It hits hard and fast. They call that sugar 'shine here. Up here they mostly use corn. There was some really good blackberry a few years ago. Yeah that stuff will knock you on your *** 😁 You can buy it in the liquor stores now. Not as many people make it anymore
