I have no idea what the fuck’s going on most of the time unless I hear about it second hand.

  • I do not watch videos (I am a boomer)
  • I do not listen to podcasts (boomer)
  • I don’t use social media except hexbear/lemmy
  • not gonna read the paper or w/e (not that much of a boomer)
  • I only read WSJ/HuffPo/Politico/CNN whatever for the laughs every once in a while

Any good sites you go to for reputable news? Blogs that are not necessarily news but are maybe about the news are good too. Lately I’ve been reading a lot of Erin in the Morning, for example.

Bonus points if it has an RSS feed

I don’t. I’m a newscel. I’m taking a tolerance break.

My wrists are too thin to be able to hold up the New York Times Sunday edition.

I’m a liberal.
I’m an incel.
My wrists are thin,
And my dick is small.

This is the straight-gay life.
Beggin’ for a wife.

Feels bad to be a liberal.

Same problem here tbh. I don’t want to watch youtube videos or listen to podcasts. Can I just get some socialist newsletter delivered to my inbox daily/weekly?
