I've seen people make that argument before, and the general line everyone else made was that giving yourself PTSD is going to make you a liability whenever it'd come to radical action.

You're not helping anyone, and it centres your own guilt over effective action to help the communities targeted.
i honestly believe that this idea that you have to subject yourself to every shocking horrifying image as part of "the fight" mostly manifests in people who are doing absolutely nothing to "fight" other than post on social media

because i never see it amongst people who are getting things done
not sure where this idea that you must continually subject yourself to horrible spectacle to stay committed to the fight came from. the more likely outcomes are total mental breakdown, or becoming the kind of person who rolls their eyes and posts a "shocked" meme when something terrible happens.

I've been watching what's happening in Minneapolis and I don't know what to say. Two American citizens killed by ICE in three weeks. Countless more who are not citizens. People afraid to leave their homes.

For those of us not living in Minnesota, are some things we can actually do:

gaming is only books if the game has a defined ending and then you sit back and think about it
Gaming doesn’t count as screen time. Gaming is books. Unless it’s on your phone - that is screen time. Movies are books unless they are Marvel, who produce screen time. Television is screen time.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

If you're also feeling angry and sad and distant and unsure how to help, and you have some means, maybe consider this, or other things like it.
Hey folks Calvary Food Shelf has been helping out people in Minneapolis for 30 years, and now they’re ramping up to meet the crisis, including doing home deliveries so people don’t have to risk going out.

They’re just over halfway to their current goal—let’s get them all the way, shall we?

This seems like a maliciously put headline to make people feel a certain way.

Wikipedia is not partaking in generative AI. They are making AI companies and scrappers having to pay for training their modules off wikipedia texts. And having an AI (not that ai) tasked with updating dead links.
