30 June

Honestly, it sounds uncaring, but I’m over the critical problems facing us as a community being reduced to the ‘anxiety’ people feel about them. More ‘feels’. This is a total absence of resilience, snowflake culture. The war generations would have found us beyond ridiculous. But this is kidult culture, that we’re refusing to see. Adults who can’t face adult challenges, because they have no conception any more of what an adult is. Earlier in the pandemic I was asked if I wanted support for my mental health, at work. I laughed, ‘for what?’, I said. To me it was just a series of actions that we all had to take responsibility for, and should still be doing right now. But it was too much for the great kidult snowflake society, wallowing in its beloved feelings.
