    mate it’s ok and good to acknowledge a small measure of good that may exist in a very terrible situation.

    humans are not meant to focus on only the doom, gloom, and cynicism of it all 100% of the time.

        nature. our brains get fucked up when stuck in the doom and gloom for too long.

        pedantry is an ugly quality btw.

      a small measure of good

      There was no measure of good whatsoever. Her situation was made objectively worse, and we’re presuming to praise those responsible merely for not making it even more worse. I’m not the one who created any doom or gloom. I didn’t kick her out. And it’s not cynical to sympathize with the homeless woman instead of with the people who kicked her out. Mate.

        And she’s also a homeless woman. Women need private spaces when they are homeless, they can’t just be on the street as safely as men are. They space was probably VERY safe for her compared to a shelter.
