Saw a Live on tiktok titled “A Peasant’s Tour” which is a guy walking around a Chinese metropolitan city speaking in several languages, showing his easy access to a comfortable life compared to Americans. First thought was Severance quote: “They give us half a life and think we won’t fight for it.”

The key to feeling hope in these times is when something encouraging happens, make sure that’s the last piece of information you ever allow into your brain and then you’ll stay hopeful. Otherwise, learn how to live in the moment and stay hydrated because we’re all marathoners now.

I super, super beg of you to break yourself from consumer culture now. It is very hard to do, especially if you have an add-to-cart addictive pattern. But I promise, it is easier than having it broken for you.
(This is also true for other addictive patterns.)

Thoroughly disgusted by any podcaster/internet personality/celebrity trying to sell us shit we don’t need right now. Oh, a book that reviews all of the podcasts you already made money on? A 6-week course that doesn’t give me any tangible value at the end? Y’all are grifters in a liberal costume. Bye

Happy International Women’s Day!
Too bad a bunch of loser boys who are scared of both being broke AND dying are taking up all the oxygen in the room. Still.
The horrors persist, but so do we.

Why does this have to be in the form of a question when we all know the answer? Why can’t the democrats start making statements over and over until they are also accepted as fact?

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Well that shit was triggering to watch. To all who have been abused by narcissists and had to deal with that kind of nonsense…you’re seen and not alone if your anxiety level just spiked off the charts.

In my high school gov class, a teacher told a group of my peers their project was “held together by generic scotch tape and feathers.” They insisted they’d worked on it for weeks, but it was obvious ego alone fueled them as their argument fell apart in round 1.
Not sure why I thought of that story.

I am really appreciative and grateful for how many white liberals are learning more about global politics and history right now. Historically the WL has intellectualized/righteousness-ed themselves into myopic thinking that ends up being feckless as hell.

If you saw, say, a former friend ranting daily, spending all their money, stealing from others, and posting themselves on social media in grandiose costumes, you might say they’re spinning out. Now think of a whole group doing this. It’s still a spin out.

I was in high school when the movie Armageddon came out. No one could imagine doing anything but preventing the asteroid. Now we cheer when the chances increase to 3.1% and vie quietly in our minds to be “the” city.

People only react with extreme anger (meanness, hatefulness, ignorant insults, etc. are all anger behavior) when they are hurt or afraid. Cornered animals wanna strike.
Keep that in your back pocket when you’re watching assholes talk about topics close to your heart. It helps.

I started to take hours-long periods away from SM/news because if you don’t sign off you can’t come back and open your app to a positive, relieving surprise, right?
It has not worked out yet, but I still support my theory.

Breathe. Embrace your free time. Pour into your community. Respect what you can't control. Reject nihilism. Remember pace and perspective. Burnout is the enemy and helps no one, least of all yourself, and should be stridently avoided. That's the only way we're gonna get through this. And we will.

But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other.
We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.
