I would, however, add a note of hope. We're all familiar with the butterfly effect. How small, seemingly insignificant things can ripple outwards to create large-scale change. Well, that applies to everything we do. It might help to keep in mind. Every little thing matters.

Exactly. It would be good. IDGAF about celebrities. And I don’t buy that it’s supposed to be feel good either. If I wanted feel good I’d start a youtube called “Something You Love” that just spent an hour with someone as they show&tell their passion. Could be a hobby, idea, place or even person.

Easy to be right without a timescale, but it does feel more likely all the time. Trying my best to see other routes out of this sort of deep polarisation, inequity and failure but it’s tough. I hope someone can. As unfortunately it’s our inability to imagine other ways that makes it self fulfilling.

Thanks! It’s a little short I’ve been waiting years for a good moment to share.
