BlackSquirrelz 👾<p>TIL about Rebel Optimism:</p><p>Its to easy to fall into the trap that everything is doomed, especially when you are doomscrolling.</p><p>Optimism needs concious effort to look past doom and gloom and see that there is actually a lot of positive things going on.</p><p> "Because optimism isn’t a feeling; it’s a choice. A discipline. And in a world this messed up, it’s also a rebellion. The future doesn’t belong to the doomsday prophets; it belongs to those stubborn enough to believe it can be better—and reckless enough to make it happen."
