you can discuss the problems within academia literally forever and you probably should but “historians are trying to keep information from you” is always going to be an anti-intellectual, reactionary opinion, sorry, literally no way around that

You know what I started doing this past year that really helped my mental health and might sound odd?
I started telling people good things. Like if I notice a retail worker's dress is pretty, I say so. If I find a waitress' balancing skills impressive, I say so. I tell people I appreciate them.
I look at every interaction I have with people as "I'm gonna make their day less shitty" and you know what?? Turns out visibly making people happier is good for the soul!
I smile at people in the subway, I say hi to bus drivers, I tip exhausted-looking fast food workers and tell them to have a good night.
And like, it's so healing??
It feels like I'm shutting up the part of me that's dragging me down and telling me I'll never be useful. Because look how useful I am, I made an employee smile because I said I liked her scarf!
I leave comments on fanfic, I text people memes, and maybe it's overrated to be useful. Maybe I'm not meant to be used, and maybe I'm just meant to be here to drop a couple coins in tip jars and smile at people and hold doors open. That's enough, I think.
