It’s bleak out there in a lot of places. How’s everybody coping?

I’ve realized I don’t ever talk about it much, because I don’t know anyone in my offline life that it’s safe to talk to. My health is precarious and my housing sometimes feels a little uncertain, so I’m very much just keeping my head down. But I don’t know! I feel Concerned! Ahh! Stress! Stressful time! I grew up in the 2000s and never thought I’d see anything like this get worse again. It’s surreal. Back then, I felt like i could freely express my rage. Right now, I can’t. It’s disorienting. How is everybody else doing? What’s it been like for you?

    I’m new to all this, but honestly feel similar to you, just trying to get by. I want to know who I really am¿but don’t wanna get hate-crimed for it you know? I’m in an accepting area, but a bad state, so all it takes is the wrong drunk asshole at the wrong time…

    I’m super closeted about everything right now, but I fear for the future as things are.
