There have been some stories, Ive read just the headlines, cuz i know I couldn’t take the whole picture.
Im a fan of staying informed, witnessing.
AND Ima fan of knowing our limits.
I have no wisdom to offer, but I support everyone who is responding, however it manifests for you💚
Definitely. I check in daily on a few war forums, and twice-daily with regional media of import for key stories, then deep-dive if a story seems to require more corroboration--& my tolerances are higher than many others.
Even then, I *do* hit them. Usually from the glib commentary around the awful reports, but still: when you trip over a limit, you step back and regroup.
We're always going to bring wounds to what we read, but we don't have to go out of our way to inflame them. 💙
