I’m not sure I’ve seen quite this much pre-cope from fans protecting themselves from the disappointment of their team missing out on a player since Aaron Judge and the “he only hits meatball fastballs” campaign

Existing in the world and around other people is inherently draining to me, even when it is with people I love or doing things I am excited about. I do a lot of pre-coping to make being in exhausting spaces more manageable for me, and this means I need to make plans in advance to allow time to pre-cope.
