Outrage fatigue? Add me to the list. But you have to get past the outrage and put things in perspective. The current state of affairs is nothing new for humanity. Is this sad? Yes, but still you have to put it in perspective. There have been multiple extinctions on Earth, separated by millions of years. We’re just on the cusp of the next one. And even if we’re not, eventually the sun is going to grow and swallow up the solar system and Earth and all the other planets will be destroyed anyway, regardless of what we do or don’t do.
I don’t find this depressing. It just puts things in perspective. I still care, I still try to help (in my limited way), I still want people to be good to each other and to flourish. But it’s all going to end someday.
@Spice_Weasel recently recommended a book Why Buddhism is True by Robert Wright, which I recently finished reading, and I also highly recommend it for its insights into how natural selection has affected our perceptions, feelings and thinking in ways that aren’t always helpful or realistic.
So that’s basically it. Have some perspective but don’t give up. THC gummies also help.
