it feels weird to say that I’m feeling anything other than despair when All Of This is happening but I’m reminding myself and all of you once again that despair is not activism and letting yourself rot in despair is not helpful to anyone. Take the time to recharge so you can do things that matter.
Jan 24, 2026 21:25It’s fine to post a silly little anime joke or look at a piece of art or get a good night sleep so you can recover or decide that today is the day you remove all the trash from a room. It’s not helping anyone anywhere INCLUDING YOU when you’re running on 3 hours sleep rotting in the depression hole
My friends have to remind me of this all the time so I’m reminding you of it. We can’t get through this if we give up. Burning yourself out so badly that you can’t get out of bed is a form of giving up. Take your little moments of joy to fuel your righteous rage.
