I have done mutual aid distribution and organized action in the past, but recently (as I got a full time job and less time) I’ve been having a hard time getting up and out of the house for mutual aid work. I feel like my body is justifying it because I want to enjoy what little free time I have, but it’s torturous for my mind cause I know the immense need is there and I’m capable in some capacity. It’s so frustrating because I know that community aid and the revolution will take tireless work, but I just don’t feel ready. A bit of a rant but fuck the fact that I have to make money and can’t just subsist while doing full time mutual aid work.
