    It's hard sometimes, friend. I think on the world we've created, and the complicity I feel in the making of it. I don't know. It's just so much death. Covid, mass shootings, our periodic carpet bombing of the third world. And then just the poor innocent children slaughtered at elementary school or incinerated in a drone strike.

    How does it all end? How did so much death become so normal? Columbine was such a big deal, and it was only 20 years ago. I feel crazy or something, like I'm the strange one for feeling this way.

      I feel crazy or something, like I’m the strange one for feeling this way.

      They've been trying to atomize this shit for decades now so we never see it for the systemic issue it is. At least here I can see sane and sober responses to this tragedy. Love to all my comrades, if you're feeling weird you can PM me and we can talk. Open invitation. Times like this we need human connections and if you aren't getting enough IRL or online or whatever I'll listen.
