    All well & good, but it’s just so effing exhausting fighting the hordes of a-holes looking to keep the world from getting better for anyone other than themselves.

      Oh, yeah. The world doesn’t get better automatically. It gets better because we fight, and unfortunately, not everyone is on the side of making the world better.

      It’s slow and miserable, and the suffering remains immense. It’s just also a reminder that it’s not hopeless.

      Remember to take care of yourself and your own mental health in these trying times, comrade. You are not alone, and taking time to personally recover will not end all hope of progress; we all must take different burdens at different times.
