title: a heavy few weeks, on the news and off it
type: notebook entry
Roe v. Wade got overturned Friday. Uvalde was barely a month before that. Gas is over $5 a gallon near here, which is its own smaller, dumber thing to be upset about relative to everything else, but it's the one that's actually changed my day-to-day — Dave's had to adjust delivery schedules at the store because of it.
Feels like a bad summer to be twenty-one and mostly checked out of everything except a research project in my bedroom. I don't know what the right amount of attention to pay to any of this is. More than I'm currently paying, probably. Writing that down as an actual intention, not just a thought I'll forget by next week.
Going to keep this one short. Didn't feel right to pad a week like this with technical notes it doesn't need.
