![]() But over the course of a year filled with controversies which did not amount to an errant social-media status, I have also grown tired of equally knee-jerk sniping about the “outraged.” I read Alexander Chee’s essay here months ago on the subject, wherein he said he had an “ outrage hangover.” I know exactly what he meant. #I HAVE NO MOUTH AND I MUST SCREAM AM TWITTER FULL#Which is usually very little.Ģ014 has been a year full of injustice and scandal and plainly, to many eyes, outrage of an unusually useless sort. That is the root of its discomfort, that it exists without regard to what you can actually accomplish with it. Like most addictions it was covering up intense feelings about my own uselessness in this situations.īut then outrage always correlates strongly with futility, in my experience.

I woke up the next day, tannins still souring my mouth, feeling ashamed of them. They felt inconsequential in the way social-media forays always do, when looked at individually. Of course while doing this I shot off a few angry tweets. Instead, I was listening to a man at a podium in Ferguson, Missouri, read a very glib statement whose result-anguish and frustration to the point of chaos-could not have been less than clear to him. That said, I was not totally cloistered from the outside world. I think I might have been drinking one of the kinds of dreadful rich-hipster tea I’m too embarrassed to identify precisely in this context.
