Cool site! But, I would very much challenge the premise that the news is the proper thing to start your day with, under normal circumstances. (Obviously, right now is an exception for a lot of people, because of the invasion of Ukraine).
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoI dunno, I like to keep up to date with worldly events and developments still. I don't want to be sticking my head in the sand.
- Biganon 5y agoThe problem is not "reading the news". The problem is "reading the news first thing in the morning". Cannot be very healthy for the mind, especially these days.
- hk__2 5y ago> The problem is not reading the news. Why is it a problem? I’ve lived years without reading any news and it had no negative impact on my life that I know of. Nowadays I read news only because I used them as a way to learn Italian, but that’s all.
- ailef 5y agoGP phrased that quite ambiguously but I think he meant "Reading the news is not the problem". At least by reading the second sentence that's the only logical interpretation.
- thenoblesunfish 5y agoI do as well, but I feel like I can do that more productively by reading about current developments once a week or less. The current situation with the war, where daily updates are crucial to a lot of people and where things really are changing daily, highlights how in more-normal times, that just isn't true.
