Irenes (many)if you're depressed about the state of the world right now
or you're too numb to be able to feel anything at all
it means you have a moral compass. hold on to that.
people who are cheerfully going about business as usual right now, terrify us
Taz the pika@ireneista I feel similarly, but I want it to be said that there is no valor in letting yourself be burned out. What use is knowing about all the evil if it makes you too despairing to do anything about it? It is therefore necessary to find or build joy wherever you can, so you can use it as a foundation for your resistance.
It is important never to let go of your moral compass as you do so, however. Devote time to grieving. Devote time to grounding. Devote time to building, refueling, pushing.
