How will you make the world - whatever corner of it you're in - a better place in 2023?
I'll start: there's a local community group that sorts and repairs donated clothes for unhoused people. Always been too shy, and maybe too cynical, to really pay attention to them before, but I think my 2023 resolution is to join them and get to sewing up some jeans.
This isn't the only thing I plan to do, but one thing I'm really trying to work on is myself. I feel like I get too cynical about things. I don't want to be toxic to people who care about me. I want to do a better job of expressing myself and my views in an amicable way to people I respect enough to understand them, even if they don't necessarily agree.
Just focusing on keeping my kids alive through a pandemic, especially as almost everyone around me pretends that there is no pandemic. Community volunteer work and political activism is fun and cool and puts me in a good mood for days but everything and everyone is at least a forty minute drive away, one way, along icy roads.
fuck that I live in America, I hate these freaks
Death to America
