Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:
The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;
If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;
Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
THIS. There's this weird forced "you are a public figure now because you sometimes tweet about politics" thing that I'm rejecting completely.
I make jewelry. I crochet. I love to spend an entire day buried in a book. Being ourselves matters more than societal expectations.
