I'm at the point where I follow the news but I just don't let it get me upset or angry. At times I feel like there are people whose life's work consists of trying to get my goat, and I'm just not going to give them the satisfaction. I'm disgusted by a lot of what I see, and I'm sad for the country, and I'm troubled by what's being done to some vulnerable people. But losing my mind over it isn't going to help any.
I know it’s scary to feel numb as well

Most of my news comes from Last Week Tonight and SNL Weekend Update these days.
Haha
I signed up for morning brew to get the highlights and that's it. I label all political noise on social media as "not interested" because it's all societal opinion and the algorithms will keep feeding you rage bait the more you interact with it. Best to just ignore it and stay up to date with the high level headlines. Don't waste energy on what you cannot control and focus on what you can control.
Good tip!
I minimize the amount of time I spend reading headlines and scrolling on social media. It does nothing but make me angry. I used to always want to be as informed as possible, but lately, I'm wondering what's the point. I can't change any of this mess - does it really matter that I know it exists if all it does is cause me stress? More and more I'm finding the answer to be "no". Ignorance is bliss.
:/ true, it’s just hard to turn off like that
I stay updating on everything that’s happening. I don’t understand how everyone is walking around all normal. But since they are, I feel like I have to keep living my life normally.
Yeah same
