Cathartic.🎢

I used to listen to this before a work shift at a restaurant. 

Tori Amos – "Barons of Suburbia"

Possibly after a couple of unpaid days of trying to be supportive in regards to other people's traumas and health issues, which was also a way of handling my own mental health. Don't die. Don't die. Don't die! Song really reminded me of how mean people could be, and how much patriarchal misogyny affected the lives of all kinds of people in the workplace, and how much you were expected to shut up and go along with some really bad behavior, and when you didn't,  oh boy the bad vibes would just come right at you. Things have gotten better, actually. Progress has been made!
