Like recently there are so many billboards in my area about cancer.
- you could get cancer
- you might already have cancer
- this person has cancer
- nobody is safe from cancer
- this person has cancer and they shouldn't have it
It's so tedious and as much as I do typically care about this stuff and it typically scares me as an illness I just... am starting to not care about it much anymore.
And wow. If it's possible to have that effect on me as someone who is pretty sensitive and empathetic, especially about something as serious as cancer... I guess it can happen about anything and to pretty much anyone.
Just thought it was an interesting thread topic! I bet lots of us felt this way during covid for example.
