Due to my natural temperament and a series of life events over the years, my breaking point was 15 years ago.
Since then I have shed a lot of professional aspirations because I just can’t even anymore. Nor do I want to. My health and friendships are about all I care about anymore. I work to live and choose jobs based mostly on the quality of the interpersonal environment and the type of daily activity (I cannot abide much sedentary work, it degrades my mental health very quickly).
I have been patiently waiting for many others to catch up. I am currently flabbergasted at the level of self censorship people are doing as they struggle to somehow let all this be normal.
But I also see the cracks showing in some facades as the contradictions are just too powerful to ignore.
There were many points in the past when The People should have flipped the fuck out, but this time it’s different. Mostly because it is now too late to prevent horrific damage to our civilization. Damage control is the order of the day now.

President Zelensky would know that in a ‘diplomatic’ situation of this color his little fit would invite toddler-like retaliation.
