I just don't know what to do. I made myself not look at the news overnight and have just been crying almost nonstop ever since I woke up

I'm envisioning my mom and dad losing health care and what they need to literally stay alive and being pretty much alone in the world

Ohio voted to keep gerrymandering, our awesome senator got voted out

I'm so sorry, hun

And yet here I am, still existing. Peeling labels off books like it actually matters

yep...

I did at least finally take Twitter off my phone and I think this is the end of my doomscrolling addiction

I mostly kept it around for local news and traffic info but I can get that elsewhere

I'm going to tuck my Kindle into my purse so I read at least a little bit on my lunch breaks rather than doomscroll

yeah I removed tumblr
I think I should just. spend less time online in general.

I plan on it. It's pathetic how little I read considering I work at a library lmao

I need to correct that

there are video games I could play with the time I've spent doomscrolling

Yup

anyway I am mooshy right now so I wanted to say: I care about you shuri

I think about how most nights I come home, eat dinner, and scroll til I'm tired, but that time could be spent on my Switch

Joysweeper: That means a lot to me. Truly. I've felt so lonely and isolated for much of the year ever since my mom had her stroke and I just. Need to do better about being present.

I wish I could cook for you!

That would be lovely
