something has gone deeply wrong when "focusing pragmatically on issues you can influence and working to make life better for yourself and your community" is considered an unserious distraction while "endlessly exposing yourself to media about distressing situations you can't control" is considered political engagement

Hi. Things are bleak, I know that. I know that we paid for Trump's last term with blood and it is likely the price will be blood again.

But listen to me. LISTEN.

You do not have to force yourself to witness horrors as an act of activism. It is not a form of activism. You can put your phone down, you can block that horrific video. We cannot win if you cannot fight and you will not be able to fight if you are hopeless.

Do not let them guilt you into this. People who are exhausted are easier to walk over. Take care of yourself, find community where you find joy.

^^^ remember this. do not exhaust yourself into hopelessness. take care of yourself and stay strong.

I know I've recced it before, but if you want a place to monitor the news while avoiding getting caught in the horrors, What The Fuck Just Happened Today is a really useful resource. They summarize political (& adjacent) news so you can remain aware of what's going on while still minimizing the emotional energy you expend on any one issue. (And they provide links and sourcing if you need to know more.)

  1. The author's poorly disguised fetish
  2. The author's proudly displayed fetish
  3. The author's fetish you're pretty sure they don't realise they have
  4. The author's fetish which they're firmly convinced everyone has and is just pretending otherwise
  5. The author's non-sexual special interest which just sounds like a fetish because of their habitually unfortunate phrasing
  6. The fetish the author is making a well-meaning effort to cater to in spite of clearly not understanding it themselves
  7. The author's fetish that never quite makes it into the text because they keep getting sidetracked by the requisite worldbuilding
  8. The author's utterly pedestrian sexual preference which the text treats like a bizarre fetish because they've got shit to work through
  9. The author's seemingly innocuous recurring trope they're going to have a personal revelation about ten years down the road
  10. The author's fetish you missed on a first reading because it's so far out of pocket, it never occurred to you that you could sexualise that

fast food, fast fashion, songs being sped up, tv show seasons being only 8 episodes long, replacing youtube vlogs with fifteen second “day in the life” tiktoks, people in their 20s complaining about being too old...everything is so rushed, we have lost the art of lingering.
