It’s bleak out there in a lot of places. How’s everybody coping?
I’ve realized I don’t ever talk about it much, because I don’t know anyone in my offline life that it’s safe to talk to. My health is precarious and my housing sometimes feels a little uncertain, so I’m very much just keeping my head down. But I don’t know! I feel Concerned! Ahh! Stress! Stressful time! I grew up in the 2000s and never thought I’d see anything like this get worse again. It’s surreal. Back then, I felt like i could freely express my rage. Right now, I can’t. It’s disorienting. How is everybody else doing? What’s it been like for you?
That is exhausting. I’m really sorry. It’s good that you can at least avoid the worst outcomes like missing rent, but that really sucks. I hope it all resolves quickly for you.
