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.
I feel you. I'm currently limiting my news exposure to just scanning the headlines/Lemmy in the morning and not listening to the radio during the day.
The idea being to stop feeling constantly overwhelmed by the amount of bad ๐ฉ going on right now and save some spoons for stuff that matters to me.
