      I recommend learning to metabolize rage as a fuel.

      Think of it this way, cellular life had to learn how to metabolize and use oxygen even though it is destructive, similarly we have to learn to metabolize pure rage and draw sustainable energy from it.

      It is exhausting though, I agree, but the rage is a fuel it just feels like taking a shot of vodka going down.

      It sure is. And the alternative is dying.

      For some more applicable advice, time bound you commitment to this cause. 10 minutes a day? 2 hours a week? 10 hours a month? Doesn’t matter. Get it a set amount of time, and dont let it bleed into your other priorities often.

      Thinking about something advocacy sized and slow moving all the time will burn you out. I’ve learned this through my cycling route advocacy. It gets the time I dedicate to it. No more, but no less.
