    Best thing to do for your sanity is unplug from the news for most of the day.

    I’ve kicked all of the political stuff right in the head, and most of my day is listening to my huge music collection or a youtube music channel like BGM while I work.

    (I didn’t even pay attentiuon to Trump’s comments or anything at the Correspondents Dinner the other day… Just don’t give a shit about that crap anymore. I figure he probably went off ranting like a demented old fart and leave it at that. Not interested…)

    The news WILL make you crazy, and the thing is, life goes on just fine when you aren’t oversaturated by it.

    Remember, the news industry - corporate media - all of it - has decades of experience in keeping listeners/vewers/readers hooked and coming back, even if it is toxic.

    You know how bad shit’s gonna be with the current crop of sociopathic fucks in Washington DC, so you don’t need to confirm it. Just find something else to listen/watch/read that is informative, educational and fun.
