| I've read the first post, and skimmed the rest of them, just wanted to wish you luck. Have felt lonely for a lot of my life too, all friends slowly drifting away as the years pass, just my partner and two kids. Small family beyond (although larger her side). My first child was born a few months afte... |

| Not really sure anymore! Definitely I used to have much more internal conversation dialogue (or rehearsals, and catastrophic arguments) than I do now. I used to want to think in floating coloured shapes with alien meaning I could see with my eyes but that never happened, unless I took something - pr... |

| I'm twice your age but relate fully to feeling like coal that wants to be a diamond, and wondering why my peers settle for what they settled for. I've been to university, I've had various low paid jobs, but the last ten years spent working more creatively in an industry I felt more at home with, but... |

I did a google. Forgiato Blow is one such Trump supporting rapper. I tried to listen to what he was (w)rapping about but the optics were too much s**t. Holding banknotes... yawn. Busty women... yawn. Facial tattoos yawn... Sports cars .... yawn.
Fear of a Black Planet... indeed... 35 years ago. |

I'm struggling to come up with blatant lies. For instance, this one, it isn't based on my experience whatsoever:
I never tell jokes that go down like lead balloons. |

| I worry the Beatles are not revered enough as the root of all modern music. Dubstep? The Beatles did it first. Cloud rap? Yes the Beatles way back in '69. New wave glitch hop? Undoubtedly the beatles. J-Pop = THE Beatles. Acid-bro-step? Beatles obvs. New world afro-jazz? Beatles. Beatles did it all ... |

| I've now completely forgotten the lie I am keeping secret. Because it's the truth, not a lie at all; I truly love watching the tumbleweed blow past when I post something on the internet. It gives me a sense of rootedness with humanity. I feel so connected with just every one of us humans. |

Toward the end I did limited work in the secure unit, but didn't feel confident of my safety doing so. Adults of all ages, and mental health conditions. The elderly in the dementia ward, and the teenagers... |
