I have come to the conclusion that people who are not concerned or angry at the current state of the world have been successfully stripped of their empathy as well as any remaining sliver of humanity because how can you witness the removal of all life on earth and not bat an eye?
I genuinely don’t understand how we are supposed to casually process that a glacier literally collapsed in Nepal, erasing 19 bridges and killing over 600 people, because the planet is too hot. And instead of stopping it, billionaires are building more data centres. Psychotic!
This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.
Being born 2002-2003 is so embarrassing because your transition into adulthood was probably completely fucked by the pandemic but you can’t talk about it seriously without sounding like a massive whiner.
lead tampon in me while i eat my listeria meat & cyclospora riddle veggies and wash it all down with microplastic water. afterwards, i inhale wildfire smoke and listen to the serene sounds of the data center built across the street. there’s a flock cam too recording it all

Shortly after the election I grieved for and later made peace with the extremely uncomfortable fact that most of us are going to die significantly earlier than we would like, and the cause may very well trace a direct line to the actions of this administration.
Endless propaganda has convinced Americans that bombs dropping in the Middle East is “normal.” As if those families don’t have jobs, school, hopes & dreams. As if every life lost isn’t someone’s entire universe.
Geographical luck. That’s the only difference between you & them.
How do people cope with how evil everyone is? Like everyday for the last 4 years has been another level of psychological damage to my faith in mankind. Things get worse and worse, people openly, flagrantly lie and are rewarded. Narrative as reality, a postmodern hell
There is so much disturbing evil shit going on, as it always has through time. I suppose I’m naive to assume history doesn’t have to repeat itself. But it’s so grim to live through this. As a species we are so advanced, the technology we’ve created is so impressive, the resources we have are staggering. But to see this power used to protect those who are actively committing genocide and who’ve perpetrated the rape of countless children. It’s so inhuman. It’s so dark. It’s so devoid of any of the beautiful qualities that so many human being do possess. I have never understood this and i never will.
