the thought of an impending tactical nuclear strike is really throwing me right now.

@cR0w I JUST started getting my mental health and my physical health in order, and here's orange mussolini threatening to start WW3.
@da_667 @cR0w I spent the early afternoon intermittently prepping a lecture on Android-to-baseband communications/SMS encoding while also doomscrolling for any little bit of optimism. Kinda feels like the morning of the intro sequence of Fallout 4. The constant state of "need to act normal while freaking out" is... horrific.

the thought of an impending tactical nuclear strike is really throwing me right now. Even assuming no nukes, the president is actively advocating war crimes.
What the fuck is the point of any of this.
@da_667 we're all in this together and we're all here if you need us

@kwayk42 dont worry, I'm still very motivated with my health, but... This man is actively losing his fucking marbles, and I'm finding it harder and harder to keep pretending this is normal.

@theorangetheme @da_667 Nah, the closer you are to the start of the regimen, the more you notice the improvement.

@da_667 There is none, other than perhaps self aggrandizement and grift. .... And he is cognitively impaired.

@da_667 I don't, it's not normal. That doesn't mean I can't keep doing my part though. There's a world without him waiting and I'll still keep trying to build it until he's gone.
There's two wolves inside you (sorry about the transport accident)

@krypt3ia @da_667 when your entire persona is built on never ever admitting error or fault, it becomes both impossible to compromise but also impossible to learn or improve or change course, even when you might desperately want to. And I think when you've been living that lie this long, you believe it yourself and now nothing is your fault, everything is somebody else's, and somehow you are simultaneously in control of everything yet responsible for nothing.

I learned today that nothing I do in my personal life can outweigh the consequences of my professional output, so I'm right there with you.

@da_667 This is normal and totally okay. The whole system seems to have gone insane.
At the moment all we can do is focus on what we can control, you know?

@da_667 can totally relate. Trying to brush away the waves of anxiety. But yeah, need to continue whatever silly things we do. Hugs to all!

@da_667 feels like I'm barely struggle-bussing through this and it just keeps getting worse each day with no end in sight.

@Dio9sys @rootwyrm @cR0w honestly, the only thing that well and truly motivates me to keep working is that I can almost immediately see the fruit of my work helping to find bad shit on the internet the same day new detection engineering is finished. Its wild to see things you wrote on a wing a prayer, and half a screen shot of a web request end up in malware sandboxes globally.

@da_667 @Dio9sys @cR0w $job-1 has made a very big show of slobbering all over Nazis, the new CEO is peak techbro, and the 'brilliant' sale of the only profitable arm collapsed through incompetence. And everything I fixed they have wrecked with LLM psychosis and general incompetence.
Shouting into the abyss and staring into the void would have a more positive impact on the world.
