I feel like all anyone can do is scream at him to stop.... but screaming isn't doing anything. Protests only work when the person in charge cares to listen...

What can we do that's not just.. "Hey 47, stop doing what you're doing pretty please, we don't like it."

I feel so defeated every day.

This year I started a new hobby and it's just been so fun. I'm doing diamond painting and it's slow, calm, and in the end I get pretty sparkly pictures. Helps to distract from the pure insanity happening in the world.

I sometimes glance at the news and just... is there really nothing we can do to stop this now that it's started? It's crazy... I feel like I'm living in some really fucked up dystopian novel and I want out.

Why is hate so effective for people to latch onto? Shouldn't we want to better each other for the good of all? What about humanity makes us so greedy we forget other people exist?

I just wish people could be kind to each other. I'm exhausted.

Anyone else just too numb at this point to be afraid of all these insane executive decisions going through?

It's like I'm watching a TV show, I'm removed from the events. Refusing to believe I'm watching the news instead.

“Helluva Boss” is a show about rising above what a powerful world tries to tell you you are and finding love n’ family despite everything you have been through. I’m saying that today because I feel it strongly today. That’s what it is, that’s what we want it to be. A story we care about telling. ❤️

Did you ever do that thing where you put a game on your Steam wishlist and then watch it go on sale year after year, event after event, sale after sale, and never buy it, and eventually it dawns on you that you never actually wanted it

At work. Two people pass each other in the hallway and chuckle as they say, "Another day!"

They have said this nearly every day since I started working here.

You ever get struck all at once with the monotony of the 8 hour/5 day work week... the sameness of everyday.

I just finished A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor by @hankgreen.bsky.social when I finished the first book, I said, "Everyone should read this book." When I finished the second one, I corrected that to: "Everyone NEEDS to read this book."

I'm in awe. I feel hopeful and deeply sad. Thank you Hank.

TST Iowa gets event canceled that's meant to promote religious tolerance and bring people together for the reason of "having elements that are harmful to minors"..... yes... can't have all those minors be exposed to accepting other people's religion lol

Religion was fabricated to control the masses and answer questions for which they had no answers.

Now it’s simply a justification for hatred, division, and violence.

It's simple really.
The more books you read, the greater the chance a magic portal will open in one and transport you into that realm.
Don't give up trying.

Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work.

I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.

A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor by Hank Green running in with the facts. I really feel this is one book everyone living in today's world should read.

Just started reading "An Absolutely Remarkable Thing" by Hank Green. Really looking forward to this!

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?
