fuck am i tired

Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

You know, I was actually quite conservative a couple years ago, I held some fairly liberal views due to a progressive family, sure, however I was the sort of person who claimed to be a “unbiased centrist” and openly tried to treat certain very problematic viewpoints as a reasonable perspective. I openly refused to apply a Gender to Trans people in discussions to “avoid opposing either side”, willingly associated myself with certain Reactionary accounts (mainly Transphobes and Theocrats), was very Aphobic (ironically), and I very openly opposed many Trans healthcare policies (mainly I supported Cass as well as being on that “what if they regret it later” bandwagon, got blocked by quite a few LGBT+ rights accounts in that period).

It wasn’t until near the end of 2023 to early 2024 where I eventually started talking frequently with a Trans Woman and later learned some of my other friends are Trans that a lot of my Transphobia slowly eroded, and I pretty much completely abandoned my idea around trying to be “neutral”. I was wrong, very wrong, and I needed to make amends for the decisions I made in the past, so I decided I would try to be as supportive as I could for those I cared for and officially became a DemSoc. From there I realised I was Asexual myself and eventually went on to be radicalised into a revolutionary communist.

I’ve changed a lot, the rights of working people, of LGBT+ people, of women, POC, disabled, immigrants, they are now all something I’m deeply passionate about making sure are equal, it’s those values that put me in the radical position I’m in now, but… it’s sure took a lot to get here.

No fucking duh, of course people are getting concerned over the economy. With chaotic tarrif policies and practices, plus oligarchs in power stripping America for parts people aren't secure in the economy. No one wants to say the words recession or crash cause it might cause one, meanwhile Republicans will cut social security to line Elon Musk's and Trump's pockets and they will cut social programs like they always want to do.

Not socialist in a “I won’t have to work” type of way but socialist in a “I’ll still be working but I won’t be worried I won’t make the rent” type of way. In a “billions won’t be hoarded by one person” type of way. In a “janitors, fast-food workers, child care workers, preschool teachers, hotel clerks, personal care and home health aides, and grocery store cashiers, will live comfortably” type of way. In a “the sick and elderly will be cared for” type of way. In a “no child should work” type of way.

China really did hit us with a cultural revolution by doing literally nothing. Seeing regular people from two geopolitical rivals do something as unprecedented as simply talk to each other is one of the few things giving me hope right now.
