I often listen to NPR in the morning but I took a break for a week and wasn’t sure I could handle a steady stream of bad news… but also, I can’t just ignore it.

I support NPR and like most of their reporting, and yeah they do tend to push back against the Fascism happening.
So I’ll still listen, but may also take breaks depending on my mental state and capacity.

@rasterweb I can’t think about Trump every day like his last term. I need to figure out how and when to take the information in but not be buried in it or the outrage.

@fistfulofdave Yeah, I think that's pretty much my strategy as well.
I also built a list for Mastodon of all of the NPR feeds from Flipboard so I can specifically look at that list if I want to soak in the news.

@rasterweb the only way to do it. This is a marathon not a sprint, worrying and consuming POL content especially as horrible as it is rn is not the play.
I needed to refocus after this week also

@rasterweb I like Up First because it gets me the critical information in a small dose even if I don't drive deeper.
