Not advice, but my experience with the same feeling began to ease when someone told me that being upset about, say wars overseas, was not itself helping anyone anywhere and was in fact harming me and those around me.

Another nudge away from caring too much about too much came when I began making conscious efforts to care even more about things I had a part in or things I could control or do or say, which gratefully left less time and energy to care too much about the rest.

I also don’t recall the president denouncing Hamas very much during his address to the nation about the coup. Literally Hitler.

Sorry. This was more middle-of-the-night attempted sarcasm and even less topical. Sorry.

This is bs propaganda. Here’s the math:

• 100% of its weapons are in transit to Israel according Joe
• it takes decades to get people to elect a government more aligned with its people than with say Lockheed Martin, and thus
• Bolivia has to succeed in suppressing coups 100% of the time whereas
• the US CIA has to succeed just once

SORRY folks. In the middle of the night I tried to make some sarcasm about the US’s intolerance of non-right-wing governments in the Americas and how many times the CIA has been proven to have helped topple non-right-wing governments. Mea culpa.

Even in Britain, the slow lane on two-human-wide escalators is on the right. It confounds me.

It gives say-no-to-me-or-any-other-male-in-my-fam-and-we’ll-dump-acid-on-you vibes

People say wild stuff like this when they’re young. The 89-year-olds in this scenario change their minds. Every time.

More Kitboga is the one true faith but I didn’t want to scare newcomers away.

At least a couple of Kitboga’s calls have originated in India, but all the characters he plays are as upstanding as they come. Except for this one time at Dave & Buster’s. Kit:

• never wishes for the plague
• always respects all varieties of English
• always respects that not everyone calling everyone else is US-based
• never uses slurs, and Kit’s
• never gonna give you up

I used to have a president who bragged about how humble they were

Wow.
