Forgive me, I'm kind of car-stupid here -- is that piece metal? Because imagine if that had come all the way off at freeway speeds. From 'haha cyberdumpster' to 'oops shard of metal through someone else's windshield and ocular orbit at 60mph'.

i realized this makes me sound like I think voting is useless. I really don't, but admittedly, it can feel a bit like as an individual you're swept away by the disproportionately tiny influence you yourself have. at least voting makes you feel like you did your part, at minimum

hate is intoxicating. our monkey brains naturally feel a rush of pleasure upon judging another inferior to ourselves, and being decent often involves disregarding that potential pleasure. it's something you have to train yourself away from

if we somehow avert total disaster in the US and eradicate the Republican party, this is how I will be with people defending the Democrats versus whatever actually remotely progressive alternative could step up. D's are literally just 'not the full fascist psychopaths' right now.

furthermore, the snooty tone of his "rebuttal" to Sotomayor's dissent isn't because he thinks his arguments have merit, it's because he knows they don't hold water and is waving that fact implicitly in our faces, sneering because he believes he can't be touched anyway

it's alright, I can't afford to flee the country anyway if the worst happens (still wearing a mask tho) besides, I feel like "America turns full fascist" also means that in VERY short order nowhere on the planet will really be safe anymore, given, you know, military

I feel like it's important to acknowledge that people can feel despairing or doomed for periods after bad events without being "doomers". I was despairing earlier. I'm feeling more stable now, and ready to continue and keep fighting. Not that this negates your post, just more as an addendum.

i'm always gonna vote and even do what I can if things go beyond voting and related, but I don't pretend in the latter category I'm going to live very long at all kind of hard not to be fatalistic and depressed in that context considering voting is looking less and less like it's gonna save us

Kindness and empathy are not weakness. They're not even optional. It's how civilization works. If we as a species don't learn to stop preying on each other when we're weakened or vulnerable, we will destroy ourselves sooner or later. It's inevitable.

The sorts of people who accuse this often don't realize that the body cannot be healthy with the level of negativity easily at our fingertips to ingest these days. Doomscrolling and too much stress will literally cause your body to break down. Positivity in some cases is essential.

Unfortunately, the people in charge or pulling the strings behind many of our countries are not interested in their well-being, only their own profit and power.
