personal life continues being very pleasant and comfortable but wowie wow it is exhausting to exist in society . I truly wish I could just be a creature , bat or duck or turtle , just enjoying life without the shackles humanity insists upon

Someone should ask Walz, Frey, et al why they are sending cops to arrest clergy instead of protecting 5 year olds from ICE
As clergy pray, arrests begin

The grimness of US history should encourage us. Yes, people used to send lynching postcards. And other people saw that, worked towards building a more just society anyway, and succeeded beyond anyone's wildest imagination. There's more work to be done. What's our excuse for choosing despair instead?
I understand and appreciate the fact that for some it is genuinely uncomfortable and distracting to think about how grim US history is. yes, that is strategically relevant, and no, I wouldn't put "did you know people used to send lynching photos to each other as postcards?" on a recruitment flyer
