Nothing about what’s happening is normal. Do not go about your day like it is.

Want to start small? @SrRochardBunson summarized the solid advice in a piece from @garrettbucks:

Then go big:

From there? Go bigger.

Yes, play. Yes, rest. Yes, drink water. But do this in the moments between fighting fascism like our lives depend on it. Because they do.

Do not hide yourself.

Be playful and childish, giddy and fearless. Cuddle your plushies, embrace your own softness.
Be calm and collected, firm as a rock. Soothing with an outstretched hand.
Be nerdy and talk about your interests. Loose yourself in the vastness of knowledge.
Laugh and cry as much as you need, stay in your cozy home or go on adventures.
Do everything and nothing at your own pace.

Go crazy with colours or choose the darkest black. Mix, match, thrift, trust your own way of living.
You know yourself best.

You deserve to live your best life.

You are not alone.
You will find your people.
I promise.

"Thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Hannah Arendt warned us that the point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm and paralyze our capacity to act. More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media in response to these ridiculous claims actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action.

The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of debilitating fear and anger, endlessly reacting to our oppressors instead of organizing against them."
