Found my way to ol’ r/melbourne for the first time in 5ever while I was chilling before my class began, and I came across a thread with the title about being afraid of the future and the apocalyptic feeling or whatever. And despite knowing what the comments were gonna be like, I still went and read them smh. I used to have genuine panic attacks when I was a teen about climate change, and while I don’t try to avoid climate-relating talk or news because it’s still important, I do try to avoid it when I have stuff I need to get done (for example class tonight) because I tend to get in a sort of…idk, stress mode haha.
Anyway, shouldn’t have gone to reddit to start with, and shouldn’t have read those thread comments lol hopefully venting this to the world’s friendliest DT will help
Ikwym I’ve had the odd glance over there and it just made me a little sad at what happened to fracture what was imo a great sub. Now that we are a fractured social media population, I think the kindness and support has mostly migrated here.
