Gaah, how do you deal with general feeling of "everything's shit"?
The work thing I used to love and felt like it was impactful (Unity) has been going downhill for many years, and so far does not look like it wants to stop going downhill.
What I dabble with now (Blender) feels useful, but I'm too afraid to take on more impactful areas/work/responsibilities.
And then, everything outside of "just ye olde coding" feels like it is going to shit.
Argh!

- uninstall Twitter
- spend less time online and more time with family. Kids in particular are a lense on the future that's less bleak.
- play more music
There's actually also upsides here, both politically and personally. There is a chance Europe comes out of this with a renewed sense of self and purpose. I for once have finally reached the point where my own mortality is less of a burden and more of a relief. That's a huge burden of my shoulders, at least sometimes.
