Until it kills someone important
Yes, I am aware that I'm following up an optimistic holidays post with something far more bleak. Humans. Multitudes. etc.
There was a mini essay about how 'shit's badtm' beneath this post but I scrapped it. It is important that this site does not exceed the allocated wallowing limit.
It can be hard to do good in the shadow of larger forces. Just as it can be hard to do creative work. Stuff like the above actually makes me very thankful for the people who make things and put it out with complete bloody-mindedness. A formative piece of advice I was given about getting started on any project is not to wait for the perfect moment because you'll be waiting forever. And you won't regret getting started.
Happy holidays to those of you celebrating it. I hope you all get the rest you need.
