i can’t say exactly what kind of world we should be building, but it’s def one where people take responsibility for each others well-being directly instead of calling representatives every 2 weeks and begging them to vote “No” on the Maim & Kill Everyone Act of 2037

Is everything terrible right now? Pretty much. But if you try to focus on all of it, you will not be able to function. So do what you can to make the world a better place to exist in- in the ways that you can & forgive yourself for what you can't. Doing something is always better than doing nothing.
