How do you deal with it all without going crazy? Asking for a friend. And also myself.
Ironically people on the right are similarly in a "everything is horrible" spiral. I imagine the truth is that things suck but not as much as people on the Internet will want you to believe
I constantly have this conversation with the millennial at work about the fact that humans have never lived in more prosperous, peaceful, equitable, democratic or liberated times as we do currently. She's just constantly dooming and glooming. Millennials are truly the most self-centred, self-absorbed and fucking irritatingly stupid generation ever.
