I find that when you're focused on one or two ACTIONS, you find yourself consuming less ambient news. Instead you are focused on news about the one or two actions you are taking. It's a good way to manage news overwhelm.
There’s a thin line between staying as informed as you should and making yourself anxious in a way that is completely unproductive and every single day the news is trying very hard to push you over into the latter

I really like @titonka.bsky.social ‘s flag here. It would be great if news outlets made it easier to check on the status of things after they leave the headlines. “Whatever happened with…”
Among other things, during this regime, it’s important that we track what threats were saber-rattling.

This morning I went searching for “ok what’s the deal with the Garcia case at this point” and without some serious google digging couldn’t find it. Which is bad!

Sarah snapped back and called him madam chair.
Dem Congressman Bill Keating went off on Rep. Self and adjourned the meeting over his lack of decorum and purposeful targeting of Sarah McBride.
