Who says I can’t be depressed about both? I can even be depressed about the present for a trifecta.
:(
The reason to be depressed about the future is that its possible to change it, but if you try to do so in any meaningful way, you will go to prison.
Plenty of people who are doing something aren't going to prison, it just depends on how you define "meaningful".
Yeah thats true, i meant meaningful in a longterm, preventing mass death events due to wars, genocide, climate collapse kinda way.
You can do tiny things for those, but if you actually try to actively intervene in them directly on a large scale, you wont be free for long.
The serotonin pills aren't working anymore, I need one that will make me forget what "ecological collapse" means.
