This is a hard era. But I'm buoyed today by the lessons so many emphasize:

* Picking a lane and working in community is how we make a difference
* Joy is vital, art is critical
* It's unhelpful to be aware of and outraged by every horrible thing

Sometimes, we'll despair. But these truths will help

The real quiet quitting: JS Bach used to just walk away from his church jobs (organist/music teacher/composer) to go hear other musicians for months. His last gig had very specific rules about what had to happen to him to leave, bc wtf dude. I think we should prob all aspire to be like him though?
My favorite thing in the world is historical records of ancient people being incredibly petty or complaining a lot
