Man. So sorry to read of the passing of your wife :(

I pray for your strength and prosperity.

Maybe I'll see you on the road one day

Yep. A lot of the rest stops say no sleeping for more than 3 hours, though. (So no camping, unless you're a truck driver)

However, planet fitness offers a membership for $25/mo that's valid across the entire US. You get access to the showers, gym, massage chairs, etc. So that's pretty cool and convenient. (Not that I want to have to always shower in showers like this but ... is what it is)

I have kids, yes. She is taking them. Two girls, 20 and 13.

I searched caretaker and it just kept popping up with "caregiver" for senior care living centers. If I search property caretaker it comes up with like property manager style positions. Wonder if there's another search term. I'll dig around on this.

I see yellowstone is hiring and they offer lodging, that's interesting!

My motivation app just sent me a notification five minutes ago.

it's only message:

"Do not quit."

Very true. She told me last night "Since you dont have anywhere to go, you can always move in with us and sleep in the living room until you find a place."

That's nice and all ... but it's time to rip off the baindaid, as I told her. She wanted this and put me in this situation. I will not be moving with her.

Also, part of me makes me think that's the matrix or something trying to pull me back in and keep me trapped (I've been stuck in this situation for a year and a half - she told me she wanted a divorce in february of 2023 but then never left the house - and I continued to try to work on our marriage which was a total waste of time). To me, it seems like I'm about to be going down the correct path. As there always seems to be some kind of odd resistance that comes out of things when I get close to breakthroughs. Just something I've noticed.

I do, yes. I work remote so all I need is my laptop and an internet connection, fortunately. I'm very blessed to work for a tech company (the pay is trash because I'm a contractor and so the agency takes so much of my pay - praying that God will open up the door for me to be made a standard employee).

Airbnb gives me the opportunity to rent a room or a small condo or guest house for a limited period of time. Problem is there's no stability - some places are only available for a few weeks. So I've compiled a list of places I can bounce around to. This, in addition to visiting national parks and camping in my car.

Wow that's such a good point about our President.

And you're so right ... we do have to learn how to lose. it's very biblical too. It's a form of refining. As the Bible says, I counsel you to buy me gold refined in the furnace. We are like a sword being forged - it is poured, hammered, and beaten on until it is made perfect.

Shit posting is a great point! This forum alongside X has really given me some form of sanity. Making memes, posting whatever I want ... researching topics. Been going into a lot of X spaces, too. I have found those to be a nice place for community.

Sorry you went through this, too - amazing that you found someone else. I've told myself I will never marry again. I don't think I'll ever date again, either. I have no trust anymore. It is totally shattered. There is certainly darkness to this. Sounds lame, but Adele "we could have had it all" came on the radio the other day when I was driving and I had a private melt down ... really does feel like that. Pretty crazy how some songs just hit so true.

I really do appreciate this post.

I wont lie and say that I'm not terrified. I've downloaded all kinds of camping apps... I'm having a really difficult time figuring it all out. I have a roof top tent on order. Sucks, but I'll be sleeping in that and trying to just travel around. I work remote so I'll be just working from the inside of my car with a power station and/or from an airbnb.

Ultimately. I know that God is with me in all of this. I feel Him. I really do. When I pray, I get confirmations. I think He has much more that He needs to show me. It's going to be extremely difficult but I'm sure I'll find some healing in nature.

I do feel just as you said, the lonelieness. I'm very concerned about that ... going from always being with my wife and kids to suddenly - by myself in a car and tent. Especially as someone who suffers from anxiety, I am a little concerned it might give me a heart attack, quite literally. I just continue praying. I figure at the very least, as long as I keep working, I can save money and maybe get a place of my own in a year or so. It's going to be a very long year, though...

Thanks for your comment.

no, we're not.

But this time, my bet is that it'll be real - an airborne chemical attack.

(or this is cover for the death of vaxxed)

i can think of many things.

-Grid down scenario, total chaos. Grinding of all supplies, food, surgeries, etc. Panic in the streets, robberies, very dangerous times (EMP? Cyber attack? Solar flare?)

-New madrid fault line rupture

-Yellowstone rupture

-Bird flu / Disease X

-Moderna/Pfizer/Astrazeneca die off

-Rounding up Christians and slaughtering them, much as the Bible says will happen "they will deliver you up to kings and you will be killed" (I can legitimately see this happening if the left gets in again.)

-pole flip (yes, magnetic poles move, but they are moving historical distances right now)

-EMPCOE (plasma core event where the entire earth cracks open and plasma shoots down from the sky - this could be a cyclical thing, perhaps every 12,000 years, and could be very well what caused things like the grand canyon, atlantis, etc), aka 'great reset' / apocalypse [These things are 'conspiracies' and there's not any evidence for this type of an event]

As the days pass, I am starting to think all of these SpaceX rockets are launching people out of here and that our leaders aren't even in this realm anymore. Covid could have been a great excuse to move supplies to somewhere. I don't know. I'm speculating. But things look extremely artificial - Significant news broadcasters, celebrities, world leaders - they just don't look like the same people.

NSA definitely has it. Question is will they use it appropriately? Hmm

Yep, that's exactly where I got the video from, right on their main page.

I believe it's very possible that part of the space force is focused on internet.
