I focus on helping people that surround me. Family, friends, neighbors. I have no control over the world at large, I do however a level of control with people I know. Having no faith in the world does nothing to help my situation or the situation of others, it only brings me down and makes me feel grouchy.

If magically the empire crumbled over night, I'd be doing the same exact thing as I'm doing right now and helping out anyone I can. There are millions of people that'd do the same thing. I don't hate humanity but I also won't pretend it isn't severely fucked. I picked up gardening, canning food and learning how to preserve food. I learned how to wrench on my car. It's just things that fill a void when feeling helpless about how absolutely chaotic and evil things are, I at least have a small sense of control of what is around me at least.
