You don't deal with it, you make that world slow the hell down. Drop this phone immediately, make a cup of hot chocolate, grab a book and read for a few hours.

What? You don't have time? Take a look at your phone, it'll tell you how much time you wasted on it this week. That's where the time is. That's how you slow the world down.

But the news, they bring new and exciting things that I surely must be aware of! Well slap yourself with a fresh haddock and calm down. Drop off that treadmill and focus on something you love. Cooking, music, embroidery, gardening, watching movies, walking the dog. The news will be there next week or next month, and they will be just as shity as today's.

You decide where your attention is spent, or someone else decides for you.
