Overcoming election insanity

Before the coronavirus and political insanity, my wife and I had breakfast
together and we discussed our plans for the day.

Work at the shop, work on the house or in the yard was uneventful. No masks, no
protestors, no sign of people we do not know approaching us. Life was good.
In these days of coronavirus and continued political insanity, my wife and I
have breakfast together and discuss our plans for the day.

Work at the shop, work on the house or in the yard is uneventful. No masks, no
protestors, no sign of people we do not know approaching us. Life remains good.
We found not watching what is represented as "The News" or paying too much
attention to politicians or putting too much stock in social media is a
prescription for peace of mind.

During the past election cycle, we researched many sources to understand the
issues. We participated and we voted. We are back to real life, as there is no
more that we can do that isn't just so much noise.

We don't watch the news anymore. Some might say, "You are going to lose touch
with reality". No, we are working hard to preserve reality and not watching "The
News" is a good place to begin.

Pretty much the same here, we had to tune out the craziness. Actually
I tuned out the craziness a long time ago but Facebook had my wife
keyed up and now she's ignoring it.

Last night we watched the show "The Social Dilemma". It seems to
present a lucid explanation of why people are so divided these days.
I'd recommend watching it if you haven't.

I will take a look, Kenbo. There are so few places to find information that is
not agenda driven. Trying to read, but little new. Almost all is written to be
PC or reflect social engineering and so much of it is the same. It is almost as
though there are no new perspectives, no new thinking, just a rehash of what has
come to pass.

There is a theory that all of this election ranting is from people who can't
control their own lives and relationships, so they pick an arena of
participation where their own success or failure can't be measured.

The show starts out a little slow but gets much better. No real
politics, just enlightening analysis and opinions that made a lot of
sense to me. Most participants worked in high levels of these tech
companies and know the inner workings.

I am doing the same. I read a bit in the paper - Chicago Tribune, but
no TV and very little radio. To me, there is no point right now. Even
paper, I skim the "news" and go to read sports or comics.

I se the rush to Newsmax and all they are doing is presenting a conservative
version of MSNBC and stirring the pot. Nothing constructive, no forward thinking
anywhere. We are excited about Thanksgiving and already sorting decorations for
Christmas. The Pope is canceling Christmas so someone has to do it :)
