“This is a gruesome case, brought in 2005 by a Colorado woman named Jessica Gonzales. Gonzales had a restraining order against her ex-husband. But when he kidnapped her three children, the police ignored her requests for help. All three children were murdered. The Supreme Court ruled that the police had no obligation to enforce the restraining order.”
Thank you, genuinely.
I’ve a good therapist, and one of my brothers is semi-decent.
And I live in a welfare country and grow a room full of weed. So I don’t have to fear being homeless and I just medicate the anger out.
So I manage. It’s like a slow decline. Feels like there’s a fuse burning and I’m just trying to dampen it to make it burn slower.
I’ve been thinking I probably need to start just posting videos or something. There are definitely more crazy people doing crazier videos, so I shouldn’t mind if some people disagree, no matter how vehemently.
It’d just be so much easier if there was a group to fall back on.
My bitch of a mother made me move schools three times because at first they’re divorced with my dad and then from the next town we had to move because she found a new man and just had to move in with him instantly to another part of the country.
I was literally in the middle-school/high-school of the country, with a 9.3/10 gpa, and no. I get triggered anytime some shows bring up the meme of parents wanting their kids to go to good schools, because my mom took me from them.
Fkity fk fk.
Sorry for the venting.
My point being I think there’s only making social media shit left for me to find solidarity. If my opinions are niche, then internet is the place. I just don’t like the idea of being “an influencer” even if I did succeed.
Another Internet stranger here: Glad to hear that you’ve got a therapist at the least. Did wonders for myself, even though I didn’t get one until well into adulthood.
Being stuck in a world where individual actions from the majority of the populace have little meaningful impact on our societal conditions is really messed up and frustrating in a primal way - we’re not evolved to cope with that kinda thing, and that’s not even accounting for neurodivergence or psychological illness. The biggest thing that I would advise you would be to try to adjust your social media habits to improve your mental health. I have been much healthier myself since disconnecting from corporate social media, which intentionally causes psychological harm for profit. Secondly, if possible, in get some time in the wilderness. Even just an afternoon can have a statistically-significant positive impact.
Anyway, all the best!
