  It felt a bit like this when I was working on my thesis preso yesterday. Does any of this matter? Maybe we will be in WW3 by the end of this week. Whatever…

    It reminds me of this meme I saw when COVID started of a Venn diagram of ‘still having to go to work’ and ‘the end of the world’. It feels like we’re in that overlap again

  I’m desperately trying to ignore it all.

  US politics

  Israel has gone for Iran which I saw in passing, and looking now apparently the US might get involved. I don’t really like discussing US politics but kind of wishing we weren’t allied right about now

    Yeah, Iran, the protests, the military parade. It sucks to know we’re on the side of the bad guys. It feels like one of those Lenin decade weeks so let’s hope for a similar revolution

      Plus ICE, and reporters being shot with rubber bullets.

      …I dunno about that part. Didn’t the revolution eventually result in Stalin? :/
