    People don’t like to be reminded about how fucked we are. They would rather bury their head in the sand and pretend the only thing that matters is shitty Instagram reels.

      When the vast majority of us have next to zero power to do anything about it, what good does constantly being reminded of it do?

        I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I’ve been sitting around quietly letting everyone blame industry and themselves for climate change, but the truth is that I wished for winter to end on a shooting star when I was little. I didn’t realize the implications of such a wish and just hated the cold.

        I, uh, also might have wished for bees to go away on my birthday candles. I realize now the bee was just checking my cake for nectar because it had bright colours, but at the time I thought it was attacking my birthday party.

    Reminders of our current impending doom should make us mad, not depressed. Maybe then we could collectively demand something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
