Time wasted?

a text to a friend:

Yeah. We live in dark times. I feel like I’ve wasted so much time “participating” by being part of the social media political frenzy of the past… fuck?… 15 years? with no results. I guess I had a few laughs, made some friends. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Gonna focus on the local, and inside my house, and the people I already know. On all the creative stuff i want to do. I’m a cog, but for now, I’m a cog who can enjoy life and my people.

All this time spent *caring* about the global news appears to have been for naught. Time to focus on what I can do, time I can spend with people I love and trust.

Gonna use the post office, while I can, to send mail.

Going to host some get togethers for people to commiserate and feel supported and … whatever living in this timeline needs.

I’m in a near news blackout. It’s delightful.

We will move out of Florida. It’s untenable to live here — esp 8 miles from that motherfucker’s Florida house.
