This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Suicide rates in Greenland are among the highest on the planet. It may seem idyllic but it's apparently crushingly lonely and oppressive.
seasonal affective depression... if you are going to move somewhere remote, move into a desert or rainforest (i.e. near the equator), not places like Canada, Alaska, Siberia, or indeed Greenland
At least not for another 20 years or so anyway.
Climate change doesn't change how much the sun shines. Where I live it has been getting noticeably warmer during my lifetime especially in the colder months, but this hasn't changed that it's dark in those months.
Right,, but in 20 years, the dark places will be hot in the summer, but the sunny places will be dangerous much of the year.
Arizona already has real problems, water, asphalt melting or burning people, more heat stroke.
SAD sucks, but if you can get outside most days and treat it with meds if needed, moving away from desert is gone be necessary in the not too distant future.
