Do small acts of activism to fight feelings of helpless and to help others. (Hang signs, make art, volunteer, donate, etc) There are easy ways to make a positive impact, you just have to find something that works for you. Live in the NOW as much as you can and appreciate the small things like beautiful plants, good jokes, the sky, pets or family, etc. When people say “Joy Is Resistance” they mean that the assholes at the top want us to feel miserable and hopeless, so choose not to. Make your own joy via cheap means whether it is spending time outside or what-have-you. Take breaks from the news. Maybe set aside a day to stay informed so you’re getting info but without the constant despair. There’s a concept called “Circle Of Control”. Worry about your small, immediate environment. Create new connections and network over plants or hobbies. Listen to a radical podcast for ways to cope. Just know that you are absolutely not alone even if everyone else seems like they don’t care.
