Everything is a lot right now.
I'm pretty melancholic at the best of times, but the past few days - what with attacks on reproductive rights in USA, further tightening of reproductive rights restrictions in Poland, anti-gay hate crimes in Oslo, and that horrible missile attack in Kremenchuk - it's really hard not to succumb to despair.
But doing that won't help anybody. Not me, and not anybody else.
I think I'll need to get stricter about limiting screentime outside of work. To prevent doomscrolling and just... general doom, I guess. For a few months I had been getting more lax, because I had to be more available due to running Sunflower. But now that's (mostly) finished. So.
It's a place to start, at least.
I just feel so useless.
