depresso

The world is depressing me

- My home country is falling apart
- The world in general is falling apart
- People are vibecoding and slop generating all the fun out of the domains of creativity I care about
- Dealing with a lot of other difficult things personally that I don't even want to talk about here

It's just a hard time. Sometimes everything feels impossible. I'm still going, though.
