I hate to do this but if you're not CW-ing your political posts I'm unfollowing/muting you. It's not about avoiding bad news. It's about making those posts a pull not a push. In other words, I will read them when I'm ready and able to process them - not every time someone feels upset, outraged or concerned.

This is how we maintain our energy for the bigger fight - by avoiding despair through conserving/maintaining our emotional energy. When hopelessness sets in, surrender can follow.
