I've unfortunately reached the point of "Yup. I'm not surprised" with little other emotion. I can't do anything about it. I eat red meat once a week, live in a city so I don't drive and work from home. I don't know what else I can do but I do feel exasperated. Like, how can no one who holds the power to change, care? If they don't, how can I care anymore?

Same, with every headline I read I feel "Yep, this is done", I don't have the energy to be optimistic anymore.
