  It's all about the bottom line. What emotion sells best in the modern-day attention economy? What keeps the clicks coming? What keeps the eyeballs watching? Well, that's what you can expect to see more of...

    I refuse to even click on the above link or any headline with similar sensationalism. If this is the direction news is going to keep going i can only see how fun life is going to be in the future. Anything you say will be so triggering to someone one way or another for no reason. I already know that at work I hardly talk to anyone anymore because of fear that something i say will set someone off. This wasn’t an issue 5 years ago i use to love talking with people at work even when they completely disagreed with me at least we could talk. Its one of the things that has accelerated my save everything and invest everything so i can be done with this crap and get on with my life. Likely just move back by family where I can actually have a normal conversation.

  From a mental health stand point I find this post-vaccine phase worse since there is no clear end. A new culture war among the vaccinated may also be starting. For example, I have family members with children who are highly opinionated about what is safe to do now. My outdoor beach volleyball match without masks was "reckless" but their masked dinner party at a restaurant was "responsible". It's truly draining as you said and I no longer share photos of when I am having fun.
