No matter what you do there is always some problem with it. I saw a post about fireworks and even though they are right about them it just sucks because some of my fondest memories are of setting fireworks off with my dad.

Im reaching a point where I can not care about any more things. I should go vegan but I just can't bring myself to care about something that isn't even a human when there are so many that are suffering. There is only so much that I can as a single individual do to make things better. There are so many things that I know I should care about and want to do something to help but Im barely avoiding just shutting down like I did a few years ago. it feels like I simply have no more empathy left to give.

I watch a movie and I pick up on all the obvious bullshit messaging it has and just want to stop watching. I feel like I lost the ability to just turn my brain off and enjoy something.

There are a bunch of other things too but I feel like the point is probably stupid anyways.

We are not well equipped for the world we've created. I hope you can find something real that matters specifically to you. Apathy is death. Good rant.

Thank you. I try to keep up on the things that affect me but the amount of noise is deafening. been trying to get more into my photography again because it helped before.
