1 year agoAs a FuckCars fan I actually like the frame of mind he takes in the video and he might have convinced me that instead of just saying fuck cars we should be demanding local/neighborhood services so we aren’t all driving to the same space for food/services/entertainment/etc
I can’t tell you what will work for you but I can share what works for me when I’m overwhelmed and mad at the world for all the things I see are going wrong. Accept that the only thing you truly have the power to change is yourself. Expecting other people to change is just setting yourself up for disappointment, resentment, and giving up. Focus on you and the things that make you happy and help you feel like you’re accomplishing something, even if it’s small. Try to spend less time trying to do the things you think other people are expecting of you and more time on getting to know yourself and what is important to you.
