I'm one more day away from deciding if last week was my last voting cycle.
That's a limited definition of "done", since it only means checking out of the political discourse and political process, which is reasonable to me if I'm now convinced it is unfixable, and disenfranchising by design.
But I'm not done in working for a better future because it also means I'm ramping up my own new phase of specifically local focus (maybe run for small town mayor one day, be neighborly in ways that improve lives among the community).
And maybe most importantly, ramping up practical preparations for the 12000 year cycle of a solar super flare event (i.e. in the solar micronova range) that will potentially reset a lot of societies across the world in terms of living conditions and the availability of electronics / grid infrastructure.
I'm on the fence on the 12000 year cycle disaster (as to wanting to survive it or not - I'll be 64 in 7 years). I think about movies like The Road and how people behaved, and I feel it was realistic and I do NOT want to live in a world like that. But then again with the right community it could be doable.
The 12,000 year cycle is just an average. It doesn't mean that the sun is marking off days on its little calendar, waiting for the exact year to set out super flares.

The shift has already begun - we are already about 150 years into it. There is proof of this. Go visit suspiciousobservers youtube channel.
