The solution is to read more curated better quality stuff.
There are more quality books written in the last 100 years than you'll ever finish. There are high quality magazines like Lapham's Quarterly. Even weekly magazines like The Economist have a marked increase in quality compared to daily news or social media.
My point here is, do you really need to know what big thing happened every single hour? If it's so important, you'll come to know of it anyways. It's okay to let time
filter out the low quality stuff and then consume the high quality stuff instead.
- smt88 6y agoI take your point, but I live in a state in the US where the government is constantly trying to take away voting rights. Democracy is important, so I pay attention. I also need to keep up with many/most industries for work, because I have clients in many areas and need to sound knowledgeable when I talk to them.
