Perennial reminder that we are not living in the worst timeline, but we are living in one of the most mediocre: a world where we have to push back on forms of violence and ignorance that we might once have thought we were on the cusp of overcoming--only to be smacked in the face by them again.

We could have had such nice things.

Instead, we have to strive to do the best we can in mediocre times.

Starting with kindness--for yourselves, & for everyone around you, too. 🕊️
