      For me, it’s Last Week Tonight and this past week was my last episode. Not because it’s not good. But because it makes me sad to have these facts thrown at me during a time when things are only getting worse.

      I haven’t resigned to giving up. I just need to pace myself.

        Chris Tidus’ Armageddon Update is my weekly go-to at this point. At least he has perfected the “middle aged guy losing his damn mind” style of rant. Lets me know that I’m not actually crazy, but the world certainly is.

      Legal Eagle is like the hopeful positive side of discourse though. That dude is very confident about being able to save America from all this

        I do appreciate the ‘adult in the room’ vibes he gives off in his content despite the political climate. It does ease the anxiety.

          right? I admit his channel did become almost entirely DJT content this year but at least he actually seems to be fighting IRL as much as he is talking on youtube. to me that is the exact opposite of a doompost.
