I have a similar perspective - I’d rather focus on what we can change than get melancholic over the things we can’t. We’re aware of the fact that it’s all going to hell and it’s likely to get worse; now what?
I’m not going to block the community, I literally joined this corner of the internet to get involved here, but I do think there’s a hell of a lot more value in sharing positive action and outcomes than being sat in yet another doomscroll factory - I’d rather be hopescrolling

I’m in the same boat, but I do actually get stuck doomscrolling and doomposting sometimes. I’m trying to do better. Anyway, I appreciate your comment. It’s stirred something living in me.

Yeah, exactly. I have my news feeds curated to give me the information I need. But when I’m here I want to be talking about what we can do, getting inspired, making connections, not just getting more sad and more cynical
