I don’t miss the horrid media coverage and spin. Its designed to divide people. Everyone is shouting or angry about something and very few are actually listening. Angry grandpa or Karen going off about something. So lame.

I don’t miss the insipid trends or memes. Like whatever is cool on social media this moment and having to keep up with whatever is hot.

I don’t miss having to hear about the latest shooting either. Or the latest bread and circus routine.

I don’t miss having to accept the increasingly worse state of affairs on the political front. For example the Citizens united ruling, or the state of gerrymandering in the country and the dumbing down of issues to talking points. Like someone is trying to score points. Pablum.

I also don’t miss the blaming of the immigrants, working poor and other minority groups. Punching down is really just so moronic. Our country was built on immigration. Yes even the native people immigrated from Asia. For solace I love to listen to some great comedy like George Carlin and Doug Stanhope
