 It’s nice how drama-free life becomes once you unplug from the news cycle. Highly recommend! 
 Anyone else here mute the word "debate" last week?  😎

 I haven't paid attention to politics or the news for about a year and it's been really wonderful. 
I subscribe to a daily "headlines" email newsletter that is decently neutral and pretty basic - just enough to find out if there's an asteroid headed for Earth or something - but I rarely look at that, even.  
 Asteroid, ☄️ best not know about it and go out clueless 😆 
 The noise is what gets to me. Everyone says everyone else is lying. I recently started a subscription with ground news. It's nice to see everything laid out on both sides of the political spectrum.  
 Amen. Life is hectic enough without manufactured drama. 
 Haven't watched the news since 2010. (excluding clips)
Haven't been on twitter since 28 March when I deleted my account.
Haven't looked at the BTC/usd for 9 days.

I'm zen as fuck right now.  
 I’m trying to figure out how to unplug from politics! 
 It’s no longer just nice; it’s a must. 
 How am I supposed to hate being white then?
