2020 has been my slowest off the blocks due to a 🤧 but also the environment. Like how do you even operate in this muck?
If you’re not depressed by the state of the world, you’re probably psychotic, bunker-level rich, or a made mook to an autocrat or warlord. Or all 3 why not.

Yup, only a very insane person would not feel depressed right now. It’s the healthiest possible reaction. Don’t fight it.

Wait, what’s depressing? Things in general seem to be going well and the world’s relatively quite safe.

Mostly focusing on my circle of influence. Humanity has fought through worse circumstances and come through!

Trying to think of an example where all three conditions obtain but could only come up with Steve Mnuchin.

Figurative depression, somewhere between frustrated and flabbergasted. Many suffer from actual clinical depression which is nothing to joke about.
Above all, the situation demands resolve and resistence to caving under the nonsense.

I am surprised you get depressed? I am kind of the opposite, what's wrong about the world?

I tapped out in November. Deep sixed an Alt with a biz and its art. Just couldn't summon the energy to wage the war its tribe wanted.
At world scale, I am at "I dunno, man, Im gonna take a nap."

Or, we're working on actively improving the world, and see how well things are going, at a local level. Because thinking globally and acting locally, as oppose to the opposite approach, is how great things get done.
Evolution is an emergent process. 🌈
