i like it cause it helps me stay present and connect with others, with what theyāre going through.
iām always in on whatās going on around the world and also have the chance to learn from amazing professionals.
i do read horrible sad stuff everyday, and that affects my mental health a little bit. but for now, itās a great job :)

There is enough bad news online to keep me up at night so I subscribe to Nice News which reminds me that there are bright lights of humanity glimmering in our world.

DW and Al Jazeera are tremendous networks, particularly if you keep in mind the few biases they do have; DW won't criticize Israel, and Al Jaz won't criticize Dubai and Qatar. But outside of that, they have tremendous programs and report on news that US channels won't touch.
Text based news are so important too, Reuters and the absolute GOAT, AP News. For those who don't know, AP is generally the first, at least major outlet, to report on any significant news stories. Literally every other outlet depends on AP as a central source of the bulk of their major news.
I'm one of those people that's been obsessively checking my various news sources throughout the day, for years. It's a very easy habit to begin and to maintain, and it has a tremendous impact on your understanding of the world we live in. Always use a skeptical, discerning perspective, but this is like the filter for the coffee grounds or tea leaves of information.

I honestly think itās time to say āfuck Instagramā and move on. Instead of trying to change a platform thatās built on control and endless mind-numbing content, why not migrate to spaces that truly support your needs and help you form real connections?
For me, itās not about staying and āfighting backā in an environment that just isnāt workingāitās about choosing a community that aligns with my values and where i can genuinely grow.
I deleted my instagram account a few months ago and it feels incredible.
I think we all deserve better.
