That is an excellent reccomendation. Howerver, I remain a little baby. I read two of butler's books and it made me too sad. I was trying to expand my horizions or whatever but instead I just ended up with a small depressive episode.

I don't think I am emotioanlly strong enough to handle the emotional weight of empathizing with a margalized story like that. Especially now a days.

I get that makes me kinda a shitty comrade. It's in the self crit pile. But that pile is under trying to make rent or whatver right now. I don't have the strength for it.
