Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.

Honestly, I think I've hit my fuck-it point.
Whats the point of trying to stay informed, be aware of the world and make change anymore? The loudest idiot wins, facts dont matter, lives dont matter, right and wrong doesnt matter.
I think I'm done. I might play a game I dont really own in a house I can barely afford and just try to enjoy myself because taking all this shit seriously is gonna give me a fuckin aneurysm... I'm tired boss.
Honestly, if you're in the US, best you can do is focus on your local community. Help out your neighbours, find like-minded people, stay active on the local level. There is almost 0 possibility for a normal person to make a difference on the national level, but you absolutely can on the local level.
