Behind every highly visible positive political change has been years of grassroots projects, small organized protests, parents who want their children to grow up in a more equitable world, a TV show that normalizes women working outside the home or a queer relationship, the person who takes in an lgbtq+ teen that got kicked out, and person who is just kind every day to someone most people ignore. The tipping point will come, we don't always get to understand how or when. When you feel like nothing you are doing matters or makes a difference, remember that is just a trick to try and get you to stop. If you can do nothing else right now, keep being kind to the people who need it, kindness has changed my trajectory many times.
fantasy concept, death (2/2)
It's as though people see the years stretching on forever and the spark of life leaves them. Or as though Death said in her apparent defeat "If you won't follow my rules, then I will follow no rules," and started taking people whenever it pleased her.

Medicine and engineering eventually solve all common causes of death, including finally old age, but paradoxically this decreases life expectancy. The leading cause of death is something people call "completion". This often happens after a major life event, sometimes completing a life's work but more often simply a transition.
Got the next 24 hours or so blocked out for feeling sick due to vaccine side-effects, and then immediately feeling better after that.
