I get everything I need to know right here😐

chercagirl.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same! And my time, mood, and stress level is so much better. I still get some local news(So.CA) but, no cable news.

lomash.bsky.social•204 days ago

Best thing that I’ve ever done

thirdwhaletrip.bsky.social•204 days ago

Avoid 'the news' - it's a given.

egplntparm.bsky.social•205 days ago

So much room for living and writing #postcardstovoters. VA specials need every pen on deck.

Be careful with those bunk beds.

Every a.m. I turn on YouTube xmas scenes w relaxing instrumental Xmas music and it stays on til we watch something at nite. No news yet here.
And-more time for books!

ironrangekats.bsky.social•204 days ago

Tried Rachel Maddow last night…lasted 10 minutes and became very depressed. Went back to reading my book and slept great.

I'm done with network news.

jdceder982.bsky.social•205 days ago

Hopefully the bunkbeds don't fall on us.

krich58.bsky.social•204 days ago

Honestly, except for a few standouts, I feel completely let down by MSM as they whitewashed Trump and ushered in his reign.

Now I don't care about what they air, our fight has moved on.

oz-s-better.bsky.social•204 days ago

I haven't either. And I don't say F-ing A$$hole anymore.

100%agree JoJo.

sueinrockville.bsky.social•205 days ago

You are missing nothing!
Funny how quickly MAGAts & RW Media forget who Trump pardoned after his failed #Jan6thInsurrection
Including CONVICTED FELONS Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Steve Bannon, George Papadopoulos

Oh the #GOPHypocrisy

I'm keeping this. Thanks.

kckristin.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same here. I'm visiting my parents and they continue to watch the news. I caught 5 seconds of it and fled the room. I don't know when I'll be ready but for now, my social media feeds and friends are keeping me somewhat sane and grounded

panthersrule.bsky.social•204 days ago

I’ve also been trying to avoid national news and just stick to local.

marcelmich.bsky.social•204 days ago

I blame the media for a big part of this mess. The media normalized #FeloniousTrump and made his campaign legitimate. Ironically, they normalized the outcome, placing all the blame on Dem messaging and Dem strategies, taking NO responsibility themselves... And magaMedia for misleading propaganda.

It is better for our mental health to stop watching so much of Trump's shit show!

Me too

goldenrulegirl.bsky.social•205 days ago

Either have I. I’ve been exploring Substack. Dan Rather turned me into it a while ago and I am one of his paid subscribers. Never really looked into it until recently. I am not giving my time or $ to democracy destroyers.

john117ax.bsky.social•204 days ago

Oh, sweetheart, it shows you haven’t been listening or watching for a long time, as evidenced by your tired, recycled lines of insult.Ignorance isn’t bliss; it’s apathy.While you’re busy enjoying “so much room for activities,” the rest of us are cleaning up the mess your indifference helped create.

shellyamber.bsky.social•204 days ago

I’ve not watched since Nov 6.
It’s cleansing.

I do like it here for news though.

ellyloves2read.bsky.social•205 days ago

Yes, and so much better for your nerves.

cluckthesystem.bsky.social•204 days ago

flavour-cuntry.bsky.social•205 days ago

I stopped a good 10 years ago, even blocked a majority of news pages on multiple platforms. It's all just sensationalist crap designed to get people worked up now. I wanna hear stories about cats being saved and cool community events being a success, not wars no one should be involved in or politics

poppop62.bsky.social•204 days ago

I may never go back.

gymgirliepris.bsky.social•204 days ago

This is me. Let me be delusional lol

kk1647.bsky.social•205 days ago

I agree! I have been in such a mental funk since the election. I can’t bear to watch the news. I am dreading the next 4 yrs. I can’t stand to look at him or hear the sound of his voice.

bakerotto27.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same for pretty much any Republican. Even podcasts I used to like. If they have clips of any of them they are out of my feed.

cjplay.bsky.social•204 days ago

My YT feed is much less now after unsubbing from 6 news sites. Quieter, yes, but also more diverse topics. The B1M, Trek Culture, How Money Works, and much more.

bjetter.bsky.social•205 days ago

I haven’t listened to the national news or Sunday politics shows. I do tune in to the local news, oddly the local Fox News as it seldom covers any national news. It’s been much more relaxing than having to hear about the next administration’s nominations.

gary-rn.bsky.social•205 days ago

My wife and I have have given up on the hours of news we used to watch daily.

lennox2.bsky.social•204 days ago

I just can’t stomach the BS anymore… The detox from MSNBC was painful and I felt a bit lost TBH, but now feel far happier…

jerryhanna.bsky.social•204 days ago

And, honestly for the most part all these "news" outlets, podcasts etc just folk trying to monetize their "brands", let's be real.

mississippidoc.bsky.social•205 days ago

I cut all cable TV from my life in 2016. It was necessary.

suncityprincess.bsky.social•204 days ago

robot-monkey.bsky.social•205 days ago

Lol same

They're still doing postmortems of the election, critical of Harris one way or another.

We watched America hire a demented felon over a qualified biracial woman and they're still busily telling us why she needed more qualifications.

mariohere.bsky.social•205 days ago

You might be missing news like this one then...

This is a rare photo of Hitler congratulating Jared Kushner's father for being picked as the new ambassador to France 🇫🇷.

tombzona.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same for me. I now realize that so much of the "NEWS" I had been watching was just people's thoughts and not so much factual news. I can check the internet, read the headlines and try to gather facts - still a lot of bias mixed in though.

oppmindcrime25.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same here, I feel better not knowing.

pianadigli.bsky.social•204 days ago

Agreed. Very liberating for sure.

thegreenwichian.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same here! I haven't watched or listened to the news since June. The radio silence has been a blessed release and broadcast news is shite anyway.

Love and peace ❤️

mavisbagadonuts.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same!
My TV defaults to MSNBC when I turn it on.
It startles the sh*t out of me and I instantaneously revert to the audible la-la-la-la-la-la-la until I’m able to locate the recall button landing on something more lighthearted like Dark Side of the 90’s or The First 48.
Great to see you here ✌️

venusvalkyrie.bsky.social•205 days ago

Can I have some of your energy, girl? I have been dragging ass since orange baboon won.. no energy or drive and even the anger has simmered down and now I’m just tired. 😪

Same…I’ve been focusing on the things that bring me joy!

jan6risingvoice.bsky.social•205 days ago

The regular “news” is simply produced to sensationalize whatever happens and sell more advertising. I get my news from NPR, BAI, PBS, and offshore sources.

Nothing for me but local news since the election. Cleaned the bathroom instead of watching Meet The Press. a lot less shit involved. Deactivated my X account. At least here the outrage merchants are profanely funny.

Same, the right-wing and left-wing Media are complicit for getting him back in the white house so to h 3 l l with them all.

It's been great for my mental health to not watch the news.

Only 4 more years, ugh.
Great plan though.

lewischaney.bsky.social•204 days ago

I worked in the biz for many years and stopped watching when I left it. I'm no worse for it. I never bought into "If it bleeds, it leads" but rather decided "If it's good, it should." Congrats on this respite!

winterfeminist.bsky.social•205 days ago

Not watching either. My life is too busy for manipulative information for ratings. I don't want to hear the felon dictator regarded as an elected sworn in president when I honestly don't think he was. Dick Tator, cough cough.

I am with you JoJo. I watch YouTube videos instead of CNN and MSNBC. Cut the cable early in November, and am enjoying peace of mind.

Very little MSM before election. None since. Closed my twit account last week. Listening to podcasts that teach me something and reading.

Not doing the news here either- I don’t want to hear that Trump lied (I already know that) or that people he is putting in to office are morons (already know that) or that tariffs are dumb (familiar with the concept) or that we’re all doomed (familiar with that plan already).

meccaleccahai.bsky.social•204 days ago

I haven’t watched the news with intention since 2023 - it’s so nice!

willowthedachs1.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same. I’m tired. I need to conserve energy. Bluesky engages me, but does not drain. A sobering thought when someone says “it’s only 4 years”. I’m 71, 4 years is a good chunk of my remaining life. How many election cycles might I have? One? Four? None?

artbydbenny.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same age, same feelings. I refuse to spend 4 yrs, or even 4 minutes, of my remaining lifespan anxious, stressed, sleepless, panicky. Once was too much already. I'm taking back my power and I'm going to spend my time doing what makes me happy.

jewelle1974.bsky.social•204 days ago

I feel the same way. I refuse to let that thug into my mind at all for the next 4 years. He will NOT be a part of my life anymore

jeffm213.bsky.social•203 days ago

That is the best attitude we can have and yes the 1st 4 years was enough for me to.

blossombenson.bsky.social•204 days ago

I feel the same at 66.

elmersmama.bsky.social•204 days ago

Me too. At 72 I’ve changed my news consumption to keep my health. All news has to be filtered through comedy (Daily Show, Kimmel), a trusted podcaster (MTN) or BSky. I stay away from MAGA voters etc. I don’t want the shock of what this Admin plans to do to throw me off. Anyone feel the same?

maw-resists.bsky.social•203 days ago

We had such a good start in the early ‘60s.
What happened?

Same here - 4 years seems long at this age. I lost my optimism with the results of this election.

The networks can’t figure out why 🤣🤣 never occurred to them we are sick and tired of news!

kumandalibariyer.bsky.social•205 days ago

I would rather watch my own news than watch someone else's news.

My house has never been cleaner. Also, being too busy to get cold or notice the dreariness outside is surprisingly uplifing.

You need to build bunk beds to have room for activities.

Same here ~ I AM SOOOO DONE with MAGA Corrupted MSM

For me - after all the Adrenaline & Cortisol with drawl from
MSM's NON-STOP Fear Mongering & non stop
Being in FIGHT or FLIGHT Mode

I have Peace of Mind, I feel the JOY, Not carrying Xtra Anger
& I think clearer

It’s very freeing…..

karrrl7281.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same for me.

5by26.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same here.
I stopped watching after the debate in June. I get my news here and before that, on the bird.

addisonsmithesq.bsky.social•205 days ago

Adjusted a whole lot quicker than expected. Reading news until further notice.

flightdolly.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same!!!!

cristi58.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same

lisametsfan.bsky.social•204 days ago

I work from home and now have the Hallmark channel on in the background. (It used to be MSNBC.) And I also refuse to watch the news.

dhorbs.bsky.social•205 days ago

Same!!

barbiejo1.bsky.social•204 days ago

Been in my studio since the election. No news. Just Bluesky!

mike-bsky.bsky.social•204 days ago

Same. *I do listen to Alex Wagner & Lawrence O’Donnell pods.

I read that after the election, CNN and MSNBC lost around half their viewers each. They earned those losses and more. No broadcast news here anymore.

weeninja1107.bsky.social•205 days ago

They'll start turning a hard right, watch! Their main goal is viewership, not truth. If they've lost the left viewers, they'll take a right turn!

thefunkyphantom.bsky.social•205 days ago

Yep, it's why they spent the last four years sane-washing him. They were trying to keep viewers by keeping it interesting and, just as importantly, trying to show Trump they'll play ball this time around. They're all toxic because of the profit motive.

I’m watching Gillian’s Island instead of msnbc & at this point, it just makes more since 🤷
