I completely get you. It's a very strange feeling, and I can't imagine what that must've been like for people during WW2. Maybe you were in one of those few regions of Europe where there wasn't any fighting and you're just going to work like normal except the newspapers talk about this apocalyptic meatgrinder happening barely a few hundred miles from you.

I felt like absolute shit in the opening salvos of the George Floyd uprising in late May/early June. Literally couldn't sleep, eat or do anything except doomscroll powerlessly for hours on end feeling sick with worry. I don't want this to get any worse than it already is, but we all know how that works, don't we?
