Currently trying to finish a piece on how we tackle climate change amid war. Articles like this are... a grinding reminder that we're not mature enough for the problems we have to face together.
We keep escalating unnecessary strife instead.
What a difficult turn of events (and grief for the family of the deceased). Hugs to my fellow Canadians today. Keep an eye out for upticks in racism and xenophobia in the next while.

I have this half-baked idea:
That the rise in perceived, and real violence, is directly proportional to the loss of in perceived, and real personal agency.
When I talk to people, working at getting something done, whether for themselves or others. In other words, engaged in personal agency. They seem less incline to hate on "others", or advocate for violence.
