View submission: Tuesday Check In: How's Everybody's Mental Health?

Let me think. The world has gone crazy. The US has given Russia the explicit permission to start World War III. People actually believe the AI hype. I've lost esteem for my manager, but the job market is pretty bad. My dating life is non-existent. My kid is exhausting. In about two years, we'll most likely get a president who admires fascists.

Probably the worst part is that I feel powerless to stop the dark wave.

Uh, I've got even worse news for you, my friend.

But I do understand. I do feel somewhat powerless. I alone can't sock Hitler on the jaw. I don't have an impassioned speech to give, but I do think we are in the same boat. We just need to do what we can and help the people around us.
