This app was an experiment and it’s not working. I can’t see anything of yours and you can’t see anything of mine. Deleting Bluesky, but find me on IG with @clairehopple ✌️

I don’t want to age like Demi Moore, skinny and botoxed and beautiful and working her ass off and looking 40 at 62. I want to age like a Mediterranean man, wrinkling like a raisin and playing cards and drinking grappa all day with my friends in a bar that smells of salt and cigars.

2024 was rough, but I’m so thankful for potable water, my new job, YOU, and a slowly healing city. I recorded this a day or two after Helene when I was still in shock.

When you take a nap, part of you stays asleep for the rest of the day. When you fall asleep that night, this part wakes up to become the monster under your bed.
