i’d love to take part - thanks so much for hosting this, i’ve really found this text to be impenetrable on my own and i want to understand it the best i can.

i’ll be making coquitos tonight… gonna go really nice with a plate of snickerdoodles.
i moved here from the deep south. it’s hard to deny it’s better here overall, i don’t feel like half the people i encounter want to kill me on the spot for being visibly trans. but it would also be lying to say this is not a place ravaged by libertarian politics. every imaginable horror of a hands-off government approach is on full display. meanwhile i feel like the south is very much You Get What You See. despite all the lilting from outsiders that southerners are two-faced, i never felt that’s true. i guess it depends on what’s important to you. i felt connected to the land in the south… i could never feel that way here.
that said, check out the colorado climate corps. awesome fulfilling work and the pay is… ok. there are for sure places even in denver you could make it work. and i suspect it’ll set you up well for future, better-paying work and introduce you to people you might vibe with.
at least clippy, for all his faults, had the good sense to be a cute cartoon paperclip.
