I definitely understand that reaction. I've kind of felt the same way. It feels like the system doesn't really work, so, while I'll keep voting, I have lost faith it the system as a solution to all of the problems I care about. I'm not really sure what there is to do outside of it though. I have some money to give, so I'll be looking into (preferably local) charities but it is hard to throw money into a black box... I feel like we need a powerful movement in this country towards individual action. A lot of leftism is focused on systemic change, and for good reason, but I don't think we should lose focus of the amount of good one person can do. As for gaming, one of my favorite narratives is Transistor (by the people who made Bastion, Pyre and Hades). Beautiful game with one of my favorite game soundtracks, a great story and a real fun combat system!

I'll be alright, I'm just not motivated to do politics much anymore. 
Oh, thanks for the reminder. I loved that game and the end credits song is one of the best of any game music.
Reaching the end and then getting that song, I never felt so satisfied completing a game.
I'll be downloading this on the pro, good test for BC boost mode :)
And indeed, it's better to focus on local improvements than stuff you can't do much about. Engage with the county, feedback on local projects has much more effect than voting once every 4 years. (Also bought by big business but that's capitalism)
