Thinking about how much depression there is on my mom's side of the family today for some reason. Mom is an addict, her brother hung himself, her sister OD'd last year. It's so freaking sad how damaged you can be when the world is so beautiful.
I was hanging with a bitcoiner last year and we were talking about the south, and I made a self-deprecating joke that my family is white trash, I said "we are white trash." And it still gives me cringe, because he reacted as if I was talking about him and other white people in the south, and I didn't catch it well enough in the moment to underline that I meant that only about my family.
I posted this poem about my grandma's death today, sort of in a similar stream to your ponderings
