Looking at the screen through one squinted eye.That way, if I see something that isn't good for me, I barely saw it all, you see, and it likely won't haunt my memory. 😐
Also homemade vegetable soup.

I will have to try this squinted eye approach. Last night I was on some of the internet's worst forums, looking for videos that might corroborate some rumours flying. I... probably should not have done that. (The videos didn't disturb half as much as the commentary from other beings around them.)
Otherwise... soup sounds great. 😊 A very successful strategy all around.
Wise words, Lise. 🤗
I did mentally prepare myself for a few of the videos I was watching last night... but it really is the strangest thing. The videos themselves didn't hurt half as much as the commentary around them. The fact that people do atrocious things to one another? Sometimes easier to accept than the spectator sport that rises around each cruel end of life.
But! We lean into empathy wherever we can, and touch grass as often as humanly possible.
It's the only way through. ❤️

I hear you. One of the things that hurts the most right now is hearing the way people I care about and respect are talking about world events right now. They're deeply confined by their ideologies and trapped in their media bubbles. It can be painful to hear.
And yes, I meant delegated, not relegated in that last one. I'm clearly watching too much footie. 😂
