    down here on the path 
    beside the railroad tracks
    with the freight train
    slowly going by
    the urge to hop on one
    of the gravel laden cars
    and let it take me
    far away from here
    is almost overpowering

    as usual i do not
    make the leap and
    later i find myself
    walking past the old man
    with a broom sweeping
    the street to where the path
    turns back upon itself
    out past the little girl
    on her mama's back
    who says hi

    i try to smile in return
    but all i can think about
    is how did i ever get so lost

  6. The film I was thinking of is Aneesh Chaganty's debut feature Searching (2018). It achieves that using online video elements, recordings of video chats, and stuff filmed from the perspective of the device's camera. As well as some news footage (presumably watched on-device in a browser or streaming app).

  12. 🎉 Wow, what a #groundbreaking discovery: #customer #support is slow! 🚀 Who knew that waiting for #tech #support could be a Sisyphean task? 🤦‍♂️ Meanwhile, our hero, instead of solving billing mysteries, went on a soul-searching #yacht #voyage, only to return and marvel at the #digital #magic trick where money vanishes without a trace. 🐇✨

  14. I just found this discussion. I, too, have been wondering this. Is there a way to view just my original posts, not including boosts? I know there is the from:me feature, but that's different, since you need to have a keyword in mind. For example from:me opera. Maybe, I'm wrong about that, and it works on its own.

  16. I just found this post, and I, too, have been wondering the same thing. Is there a way just to see my original posts, and not my boosts? I know that if I have an idea of a keyword, I can search for it with from:me, but that's a little different.

  17. A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

    We find what we are looking for. If we are looking for life and love and openness and growth, we are likely to find them. If we are looking for witchcraft and evil, we’ll likely find them, and we may get taken over by them.

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC
