Lately I am struggling to reconcile a sense of moral/professional/social obligation to publicly perform appropriate outrage at all the relelentlessly awful news with a mental health imperative to not drown in the discourse while it’s difficult to stay tethered to “real” life.
That’s all! No upshot here, just genuine conflicting guilt for having thoughts and feelings in (relative) isolation and not knowing how to share them productively without just tweeting self indulgently about every outrage!
(This is not intended as self-pity. Is it meaningful to say un-poignantly on social media that [systemic racism, police brutality, the rising COVID-19 death toll, Donald Trump, most billionaires] are bad or would that just be a miserable, self-aggrandizing game of whack-a-mole?)
one thing you can do that's more effective than tweeting: https://minnesotafreedomfund.org/donate
