what survives of us is not always love, but if you try hard enough, it can be.
The influencer economy is about to take a hit as A) anyone can make themselves look as if they have the ideal appearance for the current trends, and B) companies can just generate fake beautiful people to endorse products.

And it honestly made me cry sometimes, because it’s been so long since anyone with any political power showed me a vision of a future where we can like things and care about people. Where we don’t have to slice off pieces of our souls for the bare hope of survival, but can thrive as our full selves.

And then there’s Mamdani, going out there and showing us a city full of regular people who are doing so many beautiful and cool things, and he *likes* them. He appreciates their work, and their art, and their hobbies, and their cultures and subcultures, in all their great variety.

The political spectrum in the US and many other powerful nations has, it seems, become dominated by people who are fixated on telling us to hate things, or at the very least, not care about them.

Of course, it’s great when we take steps to actually understand others and empathize with them. But we also have limited time and there are a lot of people around doing stuff we won’t get for various reasons, and that’s where the virtue of minding your own business does its beautiful work.

Hear a language you don’t know? They’re not talking to you, move on! See a family configuration that isn’t immediately identifiable to you? Welp, it’s not your family, move on! Don’t understand a stranger’s gender presentation? Great news, that’s not your business, you can just move on!

A lot has been said about how we need to bring back the social stigma against lying, and that’s true, but we also need to bring back the social stigma against being a nosy, whiny busybody. You can mind your own business, actually! You can see something you don’t get and just shrug and move on!
