RE: Are you ok?

A response to Marginalia’s recent post.

I’m not okay, no. And the world around me isn’t, either. I mean the entire reason I CAN go out and touch grass is because the snow that’s supposed to be covering it, isn’t. In January in the Midwestern US.

My finances are shit. I’m about a week away from bankruptcy at any given moment.

And, again... Midwest. The people around me are generally cool, but the population at large wants to legislate me out of existence.

So, no, I’m not okay, and neither is the rest of the world. I don’t have the luxury of ignoring “what’s just on my phone” because it’s NOT just on my phone (or, you know, the laptop that I actually do most of my computing on).
