The more I watch people talk about disasters, the more I think a lot of people mentally divide the world into Disaster Places and Normal Places and believe that they (wise, pragmatic, likable) have chosen to live in a Normal Place. This means that disasters that happen to them are bizarre and unfair exceptions, while disasters that happen to others are unfortunately what they get for their careless choices. This is a bad mindset. https://mstdn.social/@kissane/110504283096767652
@vruba This this this. Have been thinking about this a lot. Sorry if my current moaning about the air quality comes off as that mindset.

@litherland Absolutely not. I think moaning about it is a totally correct response.
