when people make posts saying “it’s ok to focus on your own needs, just make sure you eat and sleep; you don’t have to think about all the Shit That Happens In This Messed-Up World”

what world do you live in??? if your default assumption about other people is that they have the freedom to take care of their own needs for things like food and sleep, without also spending about half their waking life working at a job where they constantly have to interact with people who are experiencing the entire gamut of Shit That Happens In This Messed-Up World, and usually aiming all their feelings about it directly at whichever employee they are currently facing (i.e. the person you are advising to somehow “just relax and take care of your own needs”) and if that person acts like they don’t deeply care for even a second, they risk losing that job along with food and a place to sleep

what world do you live in, and how the hell can I move there
