   They want to desensitize us from the reality of the world literally burning all around us.

   Of course it's fucking killing us. Either quickly or slowly, we will not survive long as a species under the accelerating deterioration of the natural world around us.

   The state wants business as normal. No the fuck wonder we are traumatized and depressed and anxious as shit and grasping at purpose amidst our 9 to 5s that have us "surviving" capitalism as it's literally killing us.

   Fuck this noise. We deserve something so much different.

   Sorry I know I'm ranting to comrades who know this all too well, but I just have to say it out loud cause I'm sick of this gaslighting and I know why I'm so deeply unhappy. This is not how we are meant to live

     When air quality sites like airnow.gov and others that report AQI list ~100 AQI as "moderate" or "unhealthy for sensitive groups", it is utter bullshit.

     PM2.5 (the particulate of concern with wildfire smoke) is gnarly as shit. It's a carcinogen. It goes deep into the lungs, bloodstream and brain.

     I don't wanna scare folks cause this shit triggers my anxiety in a big way but it's important to dispel the normalization of this hellscape.

     At 50 AQI I feel real gross; at 100+ I have a massive headache and can feel weird chest and muscular pain.

     This is not fucking okay. We deserve fresh air and water and soil and it's going to take militant action to break through complacency cause the people who have power to do something about it do. not. give. a. single. fuck.

     It will take every bit of imagination and radical reenvisioning of everything around us. Cause the status quo is fucking miserable and I'm not going out like this
