This is a short vid showing a very frustrated woman who is having a very hard time finding out what is happening in the world. Most all of us are feeling this to some degree. I am spending about 5 hours or more going outside and getting involved in my surroundings than thinking about "world" events. It is fun and I seem to stabilize much easier.
Sorry, she's a hysteric, a karen, a diva, a performer --just my opinion.
Tune out, turn off, drop out! Should be the new catchphrase.
When I shut off all of the screens I get more done in a quiet calmer environment,
Sadly, I have definitely become an instant information junkie addicted to the search engine/social media world of news, shopping, connection, learning…
Thank you, Al Gore!
same here. plus the majority of it is negative or they show stuff i can't bear to see so i rarely look at a newspaper anymore. i don't watch any local news at all. i am much calmer for it.
Can't say I've ever heard any reasonably intelligent people say they use TicToc for news (or much of anything, for that matter).

Who to vote for is among the easiest decisions I make. Pretty simple: I vote for people of good character.
I find the state and federal congressional websites and see what bills are being presented, by whom, and current status. I read headlines on a couple of news sites, nothing that is blatantly political. That's how I decide for whom to cast my vote.I’m asking this as a sincere question — if you refuse to watch/read any news then how do you determine how you’re going to vote once you’re in the voting booth?
I too feel overwhelmed by the news both fake and true coming from all directions in the USA. Both political parties are guilty of fake AI photos, hysteria, and outright lies. I find myself having to search out news sources that hopefully are unbiased. I also skim sources that I know to be biased.
i do this because I think as an American citizen I have the obligation to enter the voting booth as fully informed as I can be. I know people who pride themselves on not knowing what is happening in the world. Are they just blindly voting for who they’ve voted for all their lives. Or who their parents, spouse ,or religious authority tells them to vote for. I’ve known people who won’t vote for someone simply because ”that name ain’t American “.
Sorry for the rant. I’m feeling frustrated, depressed, and scared at the news ( thus reflecting what may be my own touch of hysteria
I have one rule for how I vote and it does not mean I stick to any party. I vote for whomever is NOT trying to dismantleI’m asking this as a sincere question — if you refuse to watch/read any news then how do you determine how you’re going to vote once you’re in the voting booth?

That falls under people of good character for me.
