y'know, on occasion i have defensively drawn backwards to being the "Not Surprised" guy, but i could never tolerate the "That's Just How It Is" attitude. frankly, i've only ever no-sell'd my reaction to some fresh hell because it's just exhausting to be Always On all the time in terms of performing despair/anger/whatever emotion should be elicited by shitty news. i guess i should be more mindful of that, cause i really hate the idea that it makes others think i'm actually fine with the hell scape we live in.
