  • I feel like generally I have the kinda attitude of like shit’s-wack-and-the-world-is-ending-but-that-only-makes-my-goal-of-living-a-moral-righteous-life-more-important but lately I’ve felt more like shit’s-wack-and-the-challenges-are-insurmountable-and-it’s-hopeless

    and I just donno how to get that optimism mojo back.

    It’s so hard being passionate and caring about the world in a society that’s so indifferent?? Like when I ask people my age what they think about climate change, everyone generally agrees that it’s hopeless, but they also usually say “I try not to think about it”. And I get the impulse but like, if we all agree it’s a problem, there’s power in that!! We could actually do something!! We just need to actually do it, instead of “not think about it”.

    Ohhh



  • I have been reading a little bit more this year and it’s enjoyable and I feel like I want to continue reading more. Trying to think about what books/subjects. I’m friends with self-described anarchists and MLs and want to be able to engage with them both a bit better lol.

    But also, living in a society where I’m effectively surrounded by liberals at all times, including family, I think it’s more important to engage with them about politics. I often feel paralyzed to respond to their comments because we have such different understandings of the world.

    Maybe I should try writing more?

    Idk I’m high and it took me an hour to write this comment so maybe not
