@zbrdge yeah, but not just.
I have actually stopped paying attention to "news" in general because after a lot of mildly stressful "obsessing" about presidents and laws and wars, I realized at some moment that not once have I had some real thing happen in my life and been happy to have known in advance about it thanks to the news.
Since I quit, I have read philosophy, had long conversations with excellent people, eaten delicious food slowly, and pondered how humans might be better to eachother.
