1. 🗑️ What was that?

I thought I cried a lot in 2023, but 2024 incubated a different awareness. There is a spiritual wickedness. And before you get annoyed about me moralizing, I do not care. Something is not right, and that “not right” seems most visible in the uneven distribution of capital and empathy. But this “not right” also shows up in our interpersonal relationships as disposability, conflict avoidance, and straight-up deceit.

2023 taught me how to cry.
