👀 I never understood why people watch stuff that upsets them on purpose The context for this statement is that my darling always be watching YouTube videos about secret societies, oppression & exploitation conspiracy theories 🌚🫠 Where attention goes energy flow🥲

@rebelkatt my thirst for knowledge sometimes prompts me to watch things that bother me. It's a mixture of curiosity, sometimes it's inspiring because I want to spread the knowledge I've learned, sometimes it's opening my eyes to things I didn't see before.. but I've gotten to the point recently where I can't handle watching other's pain. I get so mad when for example, a particularly brutal child abuse case pops up, it gets stuck in my head because I can't not feel the pain and fear that child felt... So it's like a double edged sword.
