@op i definitely grieve the potentiality of a life you were told - but never allowed - to live.
fact of the matter is that this country is on its last legs, and climate change is going to drastically exacerbate international conflict - including the US for once - Ukraine just being the first one.
all we have left to do is take care of each other. all of our institutions - even the ones for "good" - are rotted to the core seeking profits over the people. we have to rise above the false consciousness of our old institutions and help create community-based replacements to take their place in the time before America turns over from covert fascism to overt fascism.
it's a tremendous task, but what other choice were you given? unless you meekly accept everything you just mentioned and everything else to come, the only choice is radical optimism. seek out community and support groups, help build mutual aid orgs, learn to make community gardens, learn to shoot, there's a lot of life to still be lived in the decaying belly of the beast
plus im also positive that ur music will only continue to get better in time and im anticipating it
there are tons of amazing people on this planet
there are people that exist right now that are your family and you don’t even know them yet
Op already going through it ! Give her some positivity, y’all can’t keep emitting these low frequencies man
Ik but OP you need to know you need to tolerate life by yourself or as much by yourself as possible
I feel like we mostly continue to thrive off of the idea that someday it might get better and we get so blinded by it that when certain things don’t go our way we freak out and get sadder more than usual
Life is hard and tough as hell and I haven’t even started going through it properly. I got unlucky in a lot of places but in some I did get lucky and you gotta be aware of that, that it’s luck and not a normality. Especially with how social media portrays others as borderline perfect and it might make you think where did everything go wrong. We all go through it, and there will be better times

Also the world is going downhill but at the same time if s*** is out of your control and the only thing you can say is “damn, I can’t do anything about this”, then leave that s*** to the side and focus on the stuff you can have an impact on
So just lay back and enjoy the show, at least s***’s interesting to observe

It is called global warming but no one cares about that, we only care about sensitive nonsense

We’ve replaced fear of death from war or illness with fear of burning out from academic or paid work and fear of loneliness from lack of social relationships, empathy or physical and emotional love from others
Granted, we live in way better times, but those times are still incredibly f***ing s***ty
Especially when you barely suffice now and don’t know if you’ll manage in the coming years
