I'm actually getting afraid to express my beliefs publicly. Never felt this way as an American before
I am feeling actually scared to hold any leftist or progressive beliefs. I never felt this way so much in the United States until now. People would give you shit sure and you wouldn't take about it at work or polite company, but I was never scared of violence or legal repercussions for my political beliefs until now.
This regime and its various goon squads have expressed clearly that leftist or progressive beliefs even basic stances on human rights are NOT acceptable, and you can even be punished, hurt or killed for holding those political beliefs. It's very scary and screams authoritarian regime.
Should I be censoring myself now? Do I have to worry about targeted surveillance? My voting records are already accessible, so are social media posts expressing support for progressive politics. Now I'm terrified that they have some kind of profile on me and if I don't shut up I could be disappeared eventually too. I never actually worried about what I said so much, to the point that I am scared to discuss politics anywhere, ever, even in private with friends and allies.
And to these people, being LGTBQIA+ and being leftist are basically the same, so even my loved ones who are gay, nonbin

Honestly I think my neighbors actually like being heard through these thin walls
It’s honestly weird. I can hear my neighbors being so loud during their private moments that there’s no way they don’t realize the whole building hears it. Every time it happens I just sit there thinking about it. Do they genuinely not care. Or is being heard actually part of it for them.
I’m not even angry. Just confused. Whenever I remember how thin the walls are I automatically lower my voice or turn the TV down. It’s a reflex. But with them it feels like that switch just doesn’t exist. Maybe some people really move through life without thinking about anyone around them. I honestly don’t know. It definitely makes living here… awkward.
Years of being unhappy
I am a 39 (f) with two boys, 18 and 11. I have been with my husband for 20 years and married for 18.
I'm going to throw a lot of info here for context so you can truly see where I'm at and why I need to get this off of my chest.
\- My husband was my first real relationship at 20. He was freshly 18 when we got together. I had a lot of childhood trauma where I avoided romantic relationships throughout my teen years. Sexual molestation from a male cousin from age 5 to 13, a narcissistic mother, and a lot of family drama. I just focused on school and being left alone mostly. I did have friends, but they weren't important. Once I graduated high school and got into college and started working, I did eventually lose my virginity, and I probably did it a total of 4 times before I got into a relationship with my husband. I was so very inexperienced and did not know what was good and what was bad.
\- We moved in together within the first month, and then I got pregnant within two months of us getting together. I have PCOS and was told it was a very slim chance I would get pregnant on my own. But they didn't explain that eating healthier and losing weight can cause ovulation to return. And it

What's the song you can't get out of your head, and what's the song that it's a "must listen to" in your opinion?
I'm someone who loves the sound of bass in songs, and for a while now I've had the song "Victory Lap Five" by Fred Again stuck in my head.
Recently, I discovered the song "And She Was" by Talking Heads and I can't stop listening to it. I recommend you listen to it if you don't know the song.
With all this, I would like to know what's that song that you can't stop listening to this days and what's a song that you say "you must listen to this"?.
Let's discover music together!
