I am interested in a pro-Ukraine fandom fundraiser.
Also, I’m sorry your brain is doing wack, imposter syndrome type stuff to you. That sounds unpleasant and needlessly upsetting.
You aren’t judging us for our inability to do anything globally consequential, right? But because it’s you, it doesn’t count. So you are just treating yourself like you’re supposed to be better than us? Nope.
It’s what my therapist calls “disqualifying” - Treating yourself like the same standards don’t apply to you as to other people because reasons. And since this is the same stuff that I do, I can recognize it when other people do it.
But our brains are doing us a bamboozle, because we are not responsible for the ills of the world, just keeping up our little corner of it, and acting in concert with others to increase our impact. So if you want to organize a fandom resistance charity space, then I will be there.
