This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This is so true. I read online and see how panicked and angry people are at us in the states. It breaks my heart. But I just read and listen instead of respond lately.

I notice how much our apps are made to make us angry or sad. All to prey on people to buy things to make them feel better.

But when I hang out with my family who all voted Kamala or friends, or just being kind to strangers in real life -- Its just a whole new vibe of hope that we will get through this.

Im trying more and more to get outside my bubble and be more social. It feels like a great way to protest tech oligarchs.

It does put you in a false state sometimes and it's good to know multiple perspectives.

I invited these new guys out to go drinking. And my god, the level of ignorance and "uh I don't really understand politics" followed by a strong appreciation for Elon Musk.

Yeah last time I'm drinking with those guys.
