I've spent years working on this and it really comes down to this: Any single tiny thing you can do to feel like you're helping build a better future is more productive than 10,000 hours of dread.
not to be barbie but how do you guys cope with the growing sense of dread that the world is legitimately going to end in our lifetimes and everything you know and love will collapse into chaos

in 1969, theodore roszak — who coined the term counterculture in his book, “the making of a counterculture”—warned us of the dangers of technocracy. 50+ years later, as we watch elon’s (and other tech billionaires’) meteoric influence over the american govt… it hits hard.

refusing to join Bluesky not because I love Twitter (lol no) not because I think Twitter is still alive (RIP bestie) but because if I could turn back time I would have never done any of this in the first place

When I say "my team" I mean my therapist in Brooklyn, my psychic upstate, every Taurus born between April 19-28, my gynocologist downtown, and my parents' elderly chihuahua

I think some of the birthrate decline can be attributed to two forces happening everywhere: increasing complexity, and decreasing hardship. Life is too complex and too 'good.' I'll try to explain

As someone who very much does want a village and indeed has it (I currently have 4 neighborhood kids under 6 at my house joining us for dinner. Part of a baby swapping system I started in 2021), after having pretty painstakingly built it over years, I want to make two points...
Today I write about how many parents who bemoan the loss of a "village" don't actually want one, because it would require them to interact with other people.
