i absolutely love how Gen Dread is evolving to meet the current level of disaster relief needed. If one more person asks a climate crises refugee if they are rebuilding in a trauma field of scorched earth, i would rather join you than scream. My heart is breaking for my former homeland and for all of the coast lines and water ways that are drying up because yes, folks, we have reached the 1.5 "tipping point" Can we gather a book club or somehow join our Substack communities to support Unthinkable? Me and Bodhi and the Muse are all in so keep me posted about how we can best navigate as a community!
Now more than ever we need to see ourselves as one big community working together. This is not an isolated event , this is a harbinger of what’s ahead. We are all family. We must act like it.
Hope is hard to find right now with the current political climate. Some have claimed that Jesus is coming back very soon. I seriously think they are right. The world is going to hell in a hand basket! God have Mercy!😇
I’m gonna be brutally honest — I feel like giving up.
I’m not a climate expert, obviously. I’m just a neurodivergent US citizen who’s powerless to stop it all. I’m living below the poverty line and yet scientists are saying I still consume too much and emit too much carbon dioxide in the process. Nothing I do changes anything. Yet everyone keeps demanding that I either single-handedly change the world by myself, or be condemned to die a torturous heat death as an unquestionably evil person.
Combating the climate crisis and its associated political fallout seems pointless to me right now. Heck, living seems pointless to me right now. Life has become an existential horror. And I’m sick and tired of it. I just want to be happy in this life. Why is that too much to ask?
Hang in there, buddy - this is not all on you, or any of us. Not on you to blame, not on you to fix - not alone. Find people to hang out with, share the load of misery, share the load of doing what we can. All this crap has to fall down to make room to start over.
