Poisoning. Tax returns. Q-anon. Fasting as a donation strategy. DeJoy, USPS, and dead baby chickens. Ravaged Iowa with no help for homeowners or farmers. Double hurricanes in the gulf for the first time in recorded history. California burning down. And all this is a "quiet" news day. Not long ago any ONE of these would have been front page headlines. Now, with the firehose flow of bad news that we are living with, most of us are so overwhelmed that we can just barely register that each new thing truly is as awful as it sounds. And please, dear God, don't forget that we now have almost 180,000 dead Americans. In less than a year. We are traumatized as a country, as a people. We must pull together as one nation to get through this or surely we are lost.
I agree that we are all traumatized by the daily onslaught of horrible news. But seeing the list you provided, I understand why some of my friends no longer read the news. Just too crazy making!
