    sorry to kill the mood, but i’m not terrified, not am i going to be, i will continue to vote for those who will legislate environmentally sound law, and cheer on groups like “just stop oil” and “extinction rebellion” every time they fuck up someone’s commute, but i refuse to live terrified and panic

    The worst thing about this is there’s nothing to do other than vote. Like. That’s just the most unsatisfying thing for a problem so serious. It’s terrifying being trapped in a society that’s killing itself.
