Hope and joy are simply important to me on a material level. I look for silver linings without losing sight of how much shit is ahead of me. It's like food - I may not always have enough for a great meal, but I'm gonna need *some* to function, and I'll fucking look for it.
One of the worst things about online in the last few years has been the idea of "cringe" and how its been used to crush the ideas of believing in things, wholeheartedness, hope.
