Stop stress eating & go exercise! Start organizating locally, build mutual support with like minded people. Build resilience & don’t give in, our strength is with in our selves not the political class, not the state, not the corporate elites, our selves. Act like it.

    I volunteered at my local tool library today to remind myself that my daily behaviors have a more tangible effect on my community than voting occasionally.

    Also listen to your friends that are really stressed out now, give care and hugs to those of your (chosen) family that are scared and dont bottle up your own emotions. Its valid to feel scared, hopeless, stressed, angry etc. Give your emotions some space too.

      OK we’re going to have to get everyone in on this, you get the Satanist organized, I’ll get the Eurasian pagans together, someone needs to reach out to the Native/First Nations & the other religious people.

                This sort of thread in the current context of events does run the risk of making one appear to be an opportunistic accelerationist, whether that be the case or not.

                  I’m trying to get people to not death spiral in to depression & do something helpful in the short term for themselves & others in their local communities. Best case scenario it helps us all get through the social, political, & economic chaos of the incoming clown show worce case we will be better able to defend against any potential violence directed at us.
