That feeling when you wake up and realize it's all futile. Days like this, I wish I was as stupid and oblivious as the rest of the hot rodded chimps surrounding me, because sometimes ignorance really is bliss.

Humans will never learn a thing no matter who they vote for.
Democrats? Hurry up and finish eating each other alive, already.
Republicans? Grow a fucking backbone and start fighting for the freedoms you claim to be all about.
All the other parties? Quit acting like you're so special because you're not "slaves to the two party system." Nobody cares about you.

All I can do is just to watch in dismay as my country I love is both falling apart and tearing itself apart, and someone like me, who hasn't got the or means to jump ship and go somewhere else, is caught in the middle of it all. It's depressing. It's scary. And if my gaming continues harping on about real life political bullshit when I'm there to game and to escape reality for a few hours, I'm going to go berserk. So help me.

Here’s what I remind myself of when I start to feel the way you’ve described. Trying to predict the future based on current circumstances is a loser’s game. When the future gets here, it’s never as good, or bad, as we imagined. It’s just different. Rule of thumb: whatever scenes go through your head you can probably write off. The future has its own agenda.

So what are worry and despair, if not really bleak attempts to predict a future that’s unknowable. If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s that whatever you expect won’t happen. The future always takes you by surprise.

Trust in the Lord and the power of his might. Jesus is the power and he lives in you if you are a Christian.
