Is there a way I can delete my account although I have posts from last year?

Thank you
Hey everyone!
Before I get into the nitty gritty, I'd like to tell you a bit about myself -I'm valisa- 32 years old,pronouns: she/her, feminist that supports intersectional feminism, currently work in a hospital and attending school for resp. Therapy and previous career in mental health (6 years rape trauma and DV, along with behavior modification), small farming experience (grew up with a large garden, chickens, ducks, geese, horses, rabbits, etc), cook vegan (not a necessary-I'm not militant about it-just a personal choice), I'm all about clean eating and a healthy lifestyle but I'm very science minded and logical about it-herbal remedies are awesome but not a cure-all and I feel that's important to understand, I use to be incredibly rowdy and loved trouble a bit in my youth lol-but have calmed over the years so I'm not a heavy drinker (but party on the occasion), I'm familiar with small community living and before major plans happen I like to chat with folks, meet, Skype...whatever to ensure everyone is compatible for living, learning, and growing together ^.^

Whoever is interested, please understand that I'm not going to get this started for another 3 years although I will be heading out there semi regularly to prep and plan the land, build the outbuildings and do some of the smaller stuff. The 40 acres Is zoned to build, is pretty heavily wooded, has part of a large river running through it (I have the mineral rights for the property as well), about 45 minutes out from a descent sized town.

So far there's me and a couple of others (I met through the punk scene and from when I use to hitchhike).  All are incredible people, VERY aware (in terms of social justice/human experience type shit) good humans that are driven to do this as well and very hard working.

I included an image so you guys can get a face with the post

Feel free to look me up on Facebook as well, it might be helpful as I'm very involved in the social justice world and if you're not okay with my posts you probably won't be okay with me lol if you choose to add me, please message me on there first.

Hey guys!
Before I get into the nitty gritty, I'd like to tell you a bit about myself -I'm valisa-31, pronouns: she/her, queer as a 3 dollar bill (important to mention as I don't tolerate bigotry of any kind), feminist that supports intersectional feminism, currently work in a hospital and attending school for resp. Therapy and previous career in mental health (6 years rape trauma and DV, along with behavior modification), small farming experience (grew up with a large garden, chickens, ducks, geese, horses, rabbits, etc), cook vegan (not a necessary-I'm not militant about it-just a personal choice), I'm all about clean eating and a healthy lifestyle but I'm very science minded and logical about it-herbal remedies are awesome but not a cure-all and I feel that's important to understand, also, I use to be incredibly rowdy and loved trouble a bit but have calmed over the years so I'm not a heavy drinker, also, I'm familiar with small community living and before major plans happen I like to chat with folks, meet, Skype...whatever to ensure everyone is compatible for living, learning, and growing together ^.^

I'm not sure if you are in any rush to move but if not I may have kind of a sweet situation. I'm in school for another 2.5 years then I will be moving  to my 40 acres in Oregon. It's zoned to build, has part of a large river running through it (I have the mineral rights for the property as well), about 45 minutes out from a descent sized town.

So here's the thing, I haven't started the homestead yet so it's just land. I begin prepping the land next summer. So far there's me and a couple of others (I met through the punk scene and from when I use to hitchhike).  All are incredible people, VERY aware (in terms of social justice/human experience type shit) good humans that are driven to do this as well and very hard working.

Anyway! I don't want to ramble on too much about this until I know if 2.5 years is too far out or not-feel free to reach out if you are interested and we can continue to discuss.
