I think I’m done with twitter now. A full afternoon of just relentless insults and retweeted and harassment and people calling me a faggot and saying how glad they’ll be when the platform is free from people of color, Jewish people, women and the LGBTQA+ community. I don’t think I can do it any more. Not even for fighting.
But I feel defeated. I feel like there’s an endless war that I’ve been fighting in since I was a teenager and we thought we were slowly starting to win and now we’re losing.

I feel like we’re losing territory to relentless insatiable hatred and cruel joy in the subjugation of other people and idiocy and malevolence and lies and fucking evil billionaires and I don’t know how to deal with it. How are you supposed to spend your whole life fighting this shit and stay sane. How are you supposed to stay hopeful? I can’t just ignore it. And I can’t seem to do anything worth a damn to push it back. Crushed.
