It’s been a bummer the past couple dozen hours.

You ever be emotionally down, realize intellectually that your situation isn’t really all that bad or your problems are minor/first-world privilege bullshit, then feel bad that you’re feeling emotionally out-of-sorts when the world is as fucked up as it is and other people have it a lot worse than you?

Yeah, me too.

Could be zeitgeist, mild depression, too many Bergman movies, bad fish taco. If it’s not serious enough for expensive intervention, it helps to assign yourself a small, short, discrete task that has a real-world outcome. IOW, build a birdhouse. Worst case—you get a birdhouse.
