It can be anything: at your job or any forced activity that you just don't feel like doing surrounded by other people. Visiting certain place, local, party, etc. It can be anything: at your job or any forced activity that you just don't feel like doing surrounded by other people.

I had to accompany my young brother to a small comic con thing a month ago and I was cringing HARD in that place I couldn't bear being there, I just kept my head down most of the time otherwise I would've just start laughing or rolling my eyes looking all that adult people dressed like it's a shitty Halloween party.

Most woke and anti-woke stuff. Like watching two toddlers go at each other around the toy bin, both screaming, "They started it!" The hate festering stronger, the division wider, the battered doll—of the 2010s' equality surge—propped up and still taking a beating until it's unrecognisable from the bright new toy it once appeared to be.

It cements my position on human nature. Nice things cannot be achieved because of an ever-lingering darkness that insists it is the light. MLK saw it. No one respects each other. Those that are meant to help are often the ones that hurt others and themselves the most.

Edit: Grammar. I had just woken up. Yeah, lovely way to start the day.
