Here's a question I'd love an answer to. How does everyone else cope with the rage? The rage with how shitty life is under neoliberalism, how much friction there is to trying to live a good life without destroying the environment or helping sustain the billionaires who are screwing everything. How do you cope? I'm not coping, I'm just almost perpetually angry, which doesn't feel like a healthy way to life.

@RichBartlett thank you so much for asking this question. I am gobbling up ppl's replies.

For myself:

1) any kind of movement helps gets that rage buildup out of my body

2) using that anger to fuel momma-bear protectiveness for those more vulnerable than me

3) even small acts of rebellion help me feel I still have power

4) anger is protective, so when rage is off the hook I am probably feeling worn out and vulnerable - rest, reach out, recharge

@vlrny there's common themes appearing; exercise/self care, channelling the rage into action and just rebelling. You're right though, sometimes you're just too tired, which I guess is the body saying to stop for a bit.
