I feel pretty desolate right now to be honest. A whole lot of bad news on all fronts.
Eeeee? That doesn't sound good. What's happened, Loko-san? :c
Oh not me. I'm hoping these protests inspire change is all. I feel like we can't nor should we go back to the normal we were feeling before George Floyd.

Yeah... God. It's chilling to think that this is the nightmare we live in. First I saw Nat'l Guard and Police marching through a neighborhood and just shooting people watching them from their porches. Next there was a clip on Twitter of a harmless guy getting pepper sprayed, then shot in the face at point-blank with a tear gas grenade. Probably knocked a bunch of teeth out. But then... Fucking hell, just now I saw a clip of a grandmother (black, obviously), who was unfortunate enough to have a tear gas grenade embedded in her skull. Half her cranium had caved in, like a bowl of gore. It was FUCKED. UP. man, like shit you'd see in war zones halfway across the world. What the hell is happening here, man?! Fuck!
As you can tell, I'm barely holding it together. After my mom lost her job, I'm the only one supporting our family. But since the economy's in shambles, I've made sure to give one-hundred-ten percent at work every day to make sure I don't get the axe. Almost makes you forget there's a global pandemic going on, right? Heheheh. It's funny, someone asked me how the quarantine was treating me, to which I replied, "Well, you know how in SEL, a certain character collects computing machines in her room and slowly drifts into insanity? Pretty much that."
Anyways, thanks for giving me a chance to vent. Take care out there, Loko-san. We're all in this together.
