Sucks, man. Sorry about the fight.
Me? I feel like I've just gone down so many rabbit holes now, been presented with so much ugliness, not to mention disappointments and loses, that I'm becoming somewhat disengaged on some level.
I mean, I still rise with the wins, but when I saw a post about the sussman verdict a few hours ago, it was kind of a bit deflating, but such deflatings don't really affect me much anymore. I just seem to roll slightly with the emotions, and don't invest too much of my heart in any of it now.
Which is not to say that I don't care or that I'm in any way nego about the direction of things, or my willingness to be in the fight. But if I can use a metaphor:
It you are subjected to beating after beating after beating, at some point, you arrive at a place where the beatings don't really mean that much. You've found a place where you sort of expect them, but can transcend them. You're kind of over the shock factor, and your system has acclimatized. Then, onward and upward through the mud of it all.
Dunno. Anyway, sorry about the gut situation.
Love to all pepes out there.
Dude, we are so in the same place.
I think what gets to me most is the inaction of it all. God forbid this goes kinetic, but I almost feel bad kinda wishing it would just so I could participate. I don't want bodies and invasion and all that goes with that, thats not what i mean. But at least then I'd be out there, you know?
My sense of justice and wanting to get involved in the fix is losing patience with the minutia of how I intellectually understand it needs to unfold.
We are the people at home supporting the boys over there, yet longing to be in the thick of it with them.
