small ask re:mindfulness 

Hey, I know that lots of folks are hurting right now. There’s a ton of pain going around in the orthocosm and elsewhere. When you go to someone else to talk about that pain, try to ask the following questions:

1) Have they eaten/showered/got a good night’s sleep?
2) Are they in a place to listen to you?
3) Do they have the time / energy to listen right now?

Please don’t just barrel into another person and dump your pain on them. Your pain is valid and real, but if you do that you’re only handing that off to someone who’s not prepared for it. That’s only going to continue the cycle.
