We edge closer to Twitter imploding. Differences in people’s privileges, coping and where they are in the stages of grief are going to bust this place wide open.
I remember a therapist telling me why so many marriages dissolve after you lose a child: your grief never syncs up. You’re on anger and he is bargaining, etc. Some of us are on day 16 and some on day 4, and we aren’t going to make it.
All we have to project our anger onto is either ourselves or other people who are somehow similar to us in a way we find meaningful. So we are mad people are eating, watching tik toks, working, not working, child rearing, being childless. And everyone wants the same accommodation
And all these needs can’t be balanced because the real problem isn’t other people. Whew.
And that’s just the sincere folks on here. The cynical ones have already moved to branding whichever trend blaming cycle they can capture. It’s like they’re all timing their jump into a Double Dutch turn: needing to be the first to name the ppl who are the *real* problem.
