I had to cut it out of my life in 2020. I was so stressed out that my memory was bad, I wasn't eating, and I was sleeping like four hours max per night. I have seen no reason to add it back. If something important happens, it makes its way into everything, so I find out. I don't need to know every little stupid thing some stupid person says on Twitter 50 times a day, or every time some politician makes some terrible decision that hurts Americans. Neither of those things are news, they're business as usual, but they're treated as breaking news by people and news organizations. I'm much happier under my rock.
