    This is so true. I read online and see how panicked and angry people are at us in the states. It breaks my heart. But I just read and listen instead of respond lately.

    I notice how much our apps are made to make us angry or sad. All to prey on people to buy things to make them feel better.

    But when I hang out with my family who all voted Kamala or friends, or just being kind to strangers in real life – Its just a whole new vibe of hope that we will get through this.

    Im trying more and more to get outside my bubble and be more social. It feels like a great way to protest tech oligarchs.

      It does put you in a false state sometimes and it’s good to know multiple perspectives.

      I invited these new guys out to go drinking. And my god, the level of ignorance and “uh I don’t really understand politics” followed by a strong appreciation for Elon Musk.

      Yeah last time I’m drinking with those guys.
