You ever wake up in the morning and go
"OK the world has some shitty things but I've brooded long enough, life goes on and today's a new day!"
And for like 5 minutes you actually feel ok....
And then you find a new list of the Supreme Court twerking on the graves of your rights...........
Yeah the past like week has just been the start of a waterslide to an authoritarian oligarchy and I'm rapidly flip flopping in between internalized wrath and listless helplessness
The climate crisis and pollution have become more noticeable where I live too
Gas prices are out of control
Idk. I feel like the world's ending around me but no one cares.
No one offline even seems to acknowledge it.
Literally why can't we have nice things.
How hard is it to give a single fuck about someone else. There's no way I'm just insanely empathetic- how can I be when I'm so fucking desensitized to death that I dont care. I'm not even sad I'm just angry.
I'm so fucking angry but there ain't shit I can do.
Protests and petitions are ignored.
Voting is more about choosing "lesser evils" than anything productive (I'm still gonna vote obvs but that don't mean it *feels* good)
And any kind of violence is morally reprehensible.
But I'm so tired of everyone being expected to play nice while our rights and freedoms are stripped away.
I'm tired of arguing and trying to understand the perspective of hatered and not even being met in the middle.
I am 20. In so many ways I'm still a kid. I don't see myself making it to 30. I don't see the United States making a comeback from this. This is not ok. Nothing is ok right now.
I have to keep my eyes down for the sake of my sanity but does that not make me just another bystander? Is that not morally wrong? Selfishly narrowing my vision to ignore the wrongs around me to keep putting one foot in front of the other, lest I take a step back to see the disaster around me?
Why does the government demand control of people's lives in the name of freedom?
Why do grown adults take such fun in complaining about children's content?
What is sexual about growing up? About being yourself? About loving who you are?
How is regulating private matters freedom?
How is Christianity flavored legislation freedom?
Why are businesses more free than people?
I don't understand. I really don’t understand anything right now. None of this is logical- from sense or from heart.
I ain't religious but I imagine God would be ashamed. I imagine they'd be angry to have their name abused in such ways.
Maybe I'm overly sensitive, overly dramatic, overly paranoid.
But it's all just so much.
I just want to exist.
I want to exist, to stay in my own lane, to mind my business and get by on a simple life. But to live in a society means to bear the burden of moral responsibility for those who need help.
I don't know.
I just want to get my words out.
I'll probably feel silly in the morning.
I always feel better in the morning.
Even if it's only for 5 minutes...
