“The urge to disappear into the forest and become local folklore……”

I felt this once. Then I acted on it.

Nemophilia is an interesting word, because it comes apart as "nemo" or "nobody" and "philia" or love of. In other words, "love of solitude." But, Greek is tricky about "nemo" because it can also mean "everybody" or in another sense, "nobody in particular."

You may have encountered a literary "nemo" such as the name Odysseus called himself to the cyclops Polyphemus; the captain of the good anti-war ship Nautilus in Jules Verne's _20,000 Leagues Under the Sea_; or that idiotic fish in the disney-animation film.

This was more like a reading or a personal message the way it landed in my system. Thank you. I practiced yoga on the grass a few days ago and now I will see it smiling. I sat for at least an hour yesterday just watching the ocean and the waves…without trying to do anything else and I like to scramble over stones. I remembered the mushroom fairy rings on Colorado I used to see. I have felt sad for no clear reason and had people show up and connect with me this past week. Thanks for this dose of light Demi.

Why yes, the urge to disappear into the forest and become local folklore has been my ambition for 30 years. My wife and I have discussed this in detail. The only reason we're not already there is that preparations are not yet complete.

81 no significan[ts.]

I baby sat Sonny Barger's niece.

funny part is, is that I was on Sonny Bull's shit list at the time.

Can't tell where my loyalty is!

HEY!

I'm a real life street preacher. https://youtu.be/4ZoQxbVkhQo?si=TgoSIo7wa8TeBRkN [2 minute commercial] Just happen to be HA too Dozen. I don't tell very many people that, i know it's out in the open so-to-speak here, as a comment in a popular substack.

No longer worried. the Federal Guvmint is making Corporations hire criminals.

Cool.

But it's not. I highly encourage everyone to read the front 7? pages of Shadowrun 2nd ed, history, where the Guvmint retains itself against the Corporations. it is not complex to understand once read.

anyway, I now have 80 & 81 in front of me.

In March my mom turned 82, so that leaves reaching the 81 Mark on me now, dad made it last year & he's BMW club HA. =D

Hey Hey! Cherish is the new love, let's encourage resigning///like the bills & declarations.

Love the memes! Where did you find them, as Substack doesn't seem to permit copying or share elsewhere. 🌺Yvonne
