the pandemic making people realize - oh shit they can just grind all this to a halt with the push of a button

the recent election frauds / riots / etc in the US, global warming / severe weather increasing, capitalism getting more and more ruthless, everything sucks more and costs more…

it feels so weird that it’s 2023 and we still care about dress codes or professionalism, at the same time. because it sort of feels like we’re in the beginning of a movie waiting for the bad thing to happen

    The world has been ending my entire life LOL, it’s a never ending shit show. Always has been, always will be. The only thing that’s changed is we carry a device in our pockets enabling us to obsess over it 24/7 now. I’m not saying it’s not worth paying attention to issues, just don’t let it get to you. We are aware of everything at all times now but our ability to affect things stays the same for most of us and that fosters hopelessness.
