It's not only this, but it's covid19, the policital situation, disrupting democracy by Qanon and fakenews, drug criminality that is a threat to the state, plus the usual mess that is political life. On top of that, or maybe on the bottom of it, my personal life is a mess in several ways, although I have a job, my own house, and I live in one of the best countries of the world (see my name).

There is too much happening at the moment, and I'm afraid this is just the beginning for this century. But there is only so much that I can do. I cannot stop arctic climate change. I cannot stop the GOP from destroying democracy in the US. I cannot stop drug criminality in my country. So often, I zap away, I just don't want to see it. I've paid to compensate for the gas use of my car, but I don't think that is a solution. My financial situation is not really good, so I cannot do much.

I'm addicted to my lifestyle, which is real average for where I live, but going lower would be a real challenge and make life a lot less attractive. I don't go 3x per year on holiday. The last time I flew was in 2013.

My coping strategy is mostly: ignore it.
