Maybe just listening to the top of the hour kind of stuff on NPR/BBC is the way to go. Stay just informed enough without feeling like you're getting hit in the face?
Plus you start realizing that no matter how fucked it is (and remembering that we have to keep fighting for better anyways) it actually is kind of better than most of the world
Oh both sides of my family came the US because fascism between the 40s and 80s, so I know it can get a lot worse ugh
I think I'm just gonna focus on state level stuff because new governor election this year, so get a better human in office, and have faith that states' rights will hold

You just end up being informed (and sometimes more zen / big picture about it) but motivated for reasons beyond despair
Obv when number goes down it hurts but believe it or not there’s a lot to be optimistic about esp w/r/t America that helps dampen the pain
Shit can get A LOT worse
