Take a big deep breath, maybe three before you read the news. Taking deep breaths makes me feel better about anything. I don't know if it releases endorphins, but it feels like it does. When I drink a glass of diet Sunkist, I feel like endorphins must've been released. I feel even better when I take deep breaths. I feel great when I get my check from work. So I don't know where and when the spectrum of feeling begins or ends, but I love feeling good. Because I always feel like shit. That would be why I like the good so much. I always go down this rabbit hole, to the point that now it's more like a rattle snake pit where I occasionally dive in and wrestle the inhabitants. Because I'm immune to their poison after so much exposure I guess. Anyway....
For something that is mandatory when it comes to wanting to know what the world around you is like, this sure is a hard thing to experience. I checked a general news feed, not a search, just a default news page. There were shootings, a rape and enough political nonsense to make anyone puke. I don't know what your politics are, but if you have politics then you are wrong. The idea is to not waste your life on bullshit, c'mon dude!! Or lady. I remember a terrible math teacher that I had once upon a time and she always talked politics. Wow very brave madame Bitch tits, spill your beliefs onto a group of kids that can't possible have a relevant perspective on what you're talking about. This applies to her politics and mathematics.
We have to check the news because we need to know what is going on around us, but we also have to realize that the news is constantly lying to us. There is nobody out there with the benefit of the people as their only concern. Nobody has the best of intentions for us. We ain't shit to nobody.
The general public is the thing that you sell to in order to make a lot of money. You can track them and their interests and sell that information to people that want to sell shit to the general public. You also need them to keep working or else they won't be able to afford anything. Then who would you sell too? Rich people? they don't buy anything that isn't going to make them more money later. Their house, clothes and shoes and even their choice of dinner napkins is calculated to turn over the most roi possible.
It seems like it's impossible for regular people to rise into the ranks of the rich. It feels like it's impossible to compete with the people that are at the top. It feels that way, because that's how it is. We can't hope to topple our modern day money empires because we don't all want to devote our lives to that shit. Most of us would snap after the first few months of the misery and then that would be it. One swan dive off your favorite skyscraper or cliff and you're out of there.
It's better to not be on top of the world. These things that people will die for, riches, glory and fame. It's not worth it. I can tell you that, but it doesn't really mean anything. If you want it, you should at least try for it. Just to experience that part of life. The hunt and pursuit of something greater than yourself. Even if the mission is just all about yourself. I am my favorite topic too, don't feel bad or selfish. Just take a few breaths before you do anything though. Doing so has kept my crazy ass from doing a lot of shit that could have been disastrous.
The kinds of things that put you into the warped, fucked up news feeds that we look at all the time. Take solace in the fact that it's always been this way. Humans are the problem of humans. We've always been raping, killing and enslaving each other. There is just no way around it, humans suck ass.
