I've followed you since the earliest days and kept re-finding you. Glad I did. Lifelong find. Thank you for all the research. I have been truly well-educated by what you post. It's cost you a great deal. Truth spoken tends to really cost, and that is a very bad thing. Been there. Done that. Still standing, as are you. You have what is called moral courage, a rare thing these days.

Hugs, Lesley

All we have, in the end, cliche as it sounds, is each other and our pets. Your wave videos help me as well. I watched the latest after work yesterday. Lovely blue sea and peace with the waves.

I am so thankful I found you on twitter! You have taught so many of us so much and help us to understand, with documents. You are a treasure! I cannot thank you enough for the time and money you spend to teach us and downloading all the documents needed.

Your Place of Peace is coming along beautifully! The price of wood is crazy right now!

Be good to yourself and as always, a big thank you!

Hiya Doll - gosh I miss your gorgeous face and soul. I am determined to complete the full list of house projects before high season. Thankfully the solar panels didn’t need to be replaced. The hurricanes last Sept & Oct the wind dislodge 3 of the 8 connectors

I went back and forth about designing the door to replicate a barn door. I guess we know who won that argument <snort>

What beautifully written sentiments. The problem with the toxic culture, is it exists in a vacuum, constantly sucking everyone & everything in. There is no benefit and there is no end. It feeds upon itself and consumes all in its path. What’s predictable, is that there will never be an end to the drama or chaos. The behavior sustains itself with negativity. They say that only sick dogs bite and that is so true. It can only exist for those who choose to participate & in the end, everyone will lose because eventually, the system will turn on them too. There’s a freedom in walking away and self care is about removing the negative aspects or people in life and replacing them with things that bring joy, comfort or good intentions. I don’t know how you hung in there for so long...your voice has so much more value in this platform where those of us who appreciate you research, can learn and understand the machinations. ❤️❤️❤️

Right? They feed off the negativity and that’s why I called it a vacuous suck of darkness. Apparently I’m living rent free in a few people’s heads. Whereas they occupy very little space in my own head.

They contribute nothing.

They believe their own delusions of QAnon-for-the-Left and absolutely insane conspiracy theories.

Their limited research is unavailing.

Retweeting news and incoherent screeds. Not exactly a “value add”

I’d say I feel sorry for them but I don’t feel anything for them - although occasionally I pity them. It has to suck to be that bitter, obsessive, petty and angry.

Meanwhile I’m over here doing research and writing. Hoping to actually contribute to helping others understand public policy and legal cases. But you’re spot on - letting go means there’s more room for sunshine & happiness. Hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day

Hey in the beginning ( like 4 years ag) I followed them. But something was off. So I stopped paying attention. You have always help clarify things by showing the underlying docs. So thanks for sharing. Painful stuff by people who claimed to be friends. But appreciate your sharing so we don’t get sucked in.🙂🙂🙂

"When other women attack and defame other women that’s is the very worst kind of woman out there." Also, their weird conspiracy theory about 'the blocklist' makes no sense. It has no logic to it.

Indeed - because the incongruity of the “new” story belies the facts in the public domain and her own tweets. Meaning was she lying in 2017 thru 2020 or is she lying now because she generally hates women. Not my circus, not my monkeys.

Place is looking good Filey. Time well spent.

But But But - I forgot to include the pictures of the “shelf” I created in the walls. My TypeA personality required me to measure the perfect height for the 2 shelves and factoring in both round and square shampoo...snort I’ll post a picture over the weekend. Plus one of my littles is super proud of a project they did. It’s a drink shelf adjacent to the hot tub. That kid is scary smart

Can’t wait for the pics. Take a snap of the little’s drink shelf! Hope you have glorious weekend weather.

This is good news to hear. I had to remove a family member from my life for my own sanity 5 years ago. In fact, we had to sell property to buy him out of the family farm. Our lives have been so much happier of not dealing with his nonsense. A narcissistic personality is not one to try to trifle with.

Your life just began to be better.

Enjoy your family, little ones grow up so fast.

Ugg - I’m sorry - I know that had to be hard. But yes total and absolute removal allows for better things to occupy your time and space. Narcissists are truly dangerous but I’d argue that those who enable and defend a narcissist might be the most dangerous of all. -sending you a virtual hug

I too, have cut a family member out. Those first few sentences Filey wrote I felt in my bones. It is freeing to release that person.
