If it seems like I've been around less of late, it's because I have. I'm cutting way back on my political content consumption in an effort to protect my mental health. Rage with no outlet is not good for me.

And while I've worked to curate my experience here, there's still a ton of political stuff on my feed, and seeing the same stuff over and over again was getting to me.

I realize there's privilege in being able to back away and turn it off, but at the same time, letting myself just...sit in it was not going to end well for me. So I pulled back.

I'm sure I'll be back in the fray soon enough. I just needed a break.

It’s going to rough at least until the election, social media will be the forum where a lot of the angst and energy goes.
