A great meta exampleThat’s a helpful reminder, really. It’s necessary to practice self care. But the root of his anxiety is also a very real issue that isn’t going away on its own. In the end it’s necessary suffering to be aware of things.
I just read that the postmaster general gutted the leadership of the USPO last night in order to push through changes to suppress mail in voting. It caused me a lot of anxiety to read this, but at the same time it was a reminder that I can't put off sending in my ballot this year to the last minute as I am wont to do.
The same applies to LinkedIn as well for industry-related news but to a much lesser extent compared to the media at large. That said, I could cut down my news consumption of all sources by a lot and probably be none the worse. I have no ill-effect or sense of missing out since I dropped Reddit, for example.
