Juggling the feelings of the big Blue wave that's going to happen across the nation (and more specifically in my state of Texas), this "war" (moreso attack) on Ir*n and all the possible ramifications of it, school work, motherhood, etc. and still have these two crazy kids in the back of my mind. Still lore building, still imagining. And through it all, trying to keep the faith (pun intended).
Here's what I've been watching lately.

Also realized while going through my watch history how I just replaced tiktok with YouTube shorts (sighs).

*very long sigh* I feel everything you mentioned. Everything. Not to sound like a product of the social media echo chamber, but I truly, truly hate this timeline.

@thesusiesjointz Just start sista and take breaks when you need to, lol. My reaction to it is the same as yours. I too am oddly calm about this, I have a few reasons as to why. I'm trying to remain calm and not catastrophize about it, and that means being careful about the news sources I consume. I'm also bracing myself(?) for any reactions that may occur on U.S. soil. I'm very sad and angry about it, ngl (our government, society in general, capitalism, etc.). If I sit with it I might have some sort of breakdown. It's just... alot... to say the least. And through it all I have a positive outlook on things. Things must and will get better, we just have to get through this. And I understand how much of a privilege that is that I can sit down and type these words in comfort. Is my positivity delusion? Maybe. But it keeps me going. And that has to count for something.

Sorry, that was a rant, but genuinely where my head has been. Like that meme of the guy poking the thing with a stick (“do something”). That’s how I feel with myself rn lol. Like why are you not panicking bih! Looolll.
