I've felt absolutely tired for the last few months. Everything is falling apart, but I'm not surprised by anything anymore.
Trump admitted to downplaying covid? That's nice.
Border camps go full nazi? cool.
I don't feel anything anymore, just tired. I get up, go to work and then go home, repeat the same thing tomorrow. I read about hellworld, and just feel absolutely helpless. Fuck, I just want to do something meaningful, y'know?
I hear ya, but every day our ranks grow, and with your help they will grow faster until maybe we CAN do something of meaning.
That being said, if you're feeling low, take a day or two off from the hellworld spin cycle and do something you like doing, and don't feel guilty about being engrossed and not thinking about the injustices of the world for a little bit.
There are days when I get this to work, and then there are days like today where I'm a total hypocrite and am unable to focus on anything other than hellworld.
Just remember that your pain and tiredness are only temporary, and that as long as you stay alive, you will get better at dealing with all of it. You have to trust yourself in saying that, because regardless of its truth, its all we really have until we're connected enough to form real community.
Stay safe comrade
I feel like we can do something, but we can't save the planet anymore. It's past the point of no return, the feedback loops are active. The world is treating global warming like the USA treated covid, run headfirst into it and then claim it's not happening until it's no longer possible to ignore, then just continue to kick the can down the road by hoping some future technology will save us.
Well we are still here. Someone has to do the fighting might as well be us.
Not only might as well, it has to be us. No more generations to pass this problem onto, we're the unlucky losers of generational musical chairs.
