I think if you want specifically fediverse answers those are the way to go, but I’ve had a lot of luck with just adding “forum” on the end of stuff. Seems to give an even split between bulletin forums, Reddit/Twitter, and blogs for any given subject matter.
All five Mississippi deputy sheriffs accused of beating and sexually assaulting two Black men before shooting one of them in the mouth have been fired.
Jfc that’s grim. I get that these kinds of things have gotten less shocking over time since it’s all coming to light on a monthly or even weekly basis, but those cops didn’t see those men as people at all.
It’s fucking monstrous what the police were capable of doing, and I honest-to-god don’t think any rehabilitation of their behavior is possible; they don’t just deserve to be fired, they should be in jail for life.
I’ve not had a good day today. The kids have been shits, my wife has winged at me for not doing something I have already done, I’m hot, tired and stressed from work and fed up of not having a good nights sleep due to my 3 year old waking us up in the middle of the night constantly....
This is more preventative than something that would help you now, but try to practice gratitude/active appreciation. It’s a bit of a slog to start, but once you get in the habit you’ll feel overall more positive and more directly in control of how you feel at times like this.
Basically, take time a few times throughout the day to acknowledge something you’re thankful for or are enjoying, and then say or murmur it out loud to solidify it. Sunny weather or a crisp morning? Feel good about it for a second or two. Those headphones your relative or friend got you as a gift sound banging? Mentally thank them for it.
This is one of the few therapeutic practices that have a universally positive impact on mental health and outlook, and it’s definitely served me well in general as well as in very similar circumstances to what you’re dealing with.
