I’m trying to take a cue from Trevor Noah (I didn’t like his time on the daily show but I still think he has some good takes):
Read the news only a few times a week. That’s enough to be informed. We created a 24 hours news cycle that makes us more anxious, angry, and scared than we need to be. Live your life, focus on those around you, stop yelling at people on the internet who have made up their mind.
It seems like a good balance of self care and being informed. You have to set boundaries.
