I choose ignorance

I need to take a break from Reading the Internet... somehow, even though I kinda need to stay connected for professional reasons if nothing else. But I need to reduce or maybe just eliminate my usual LJ→BoingBoing→RSS→repeat cycle for a while. Time was it would just be a timesink, but now its helping me maintain my state of being a twitching, foaming wreck.

My baseline anger level has risen too much, too quickly, after nearly two years of calm. It's not good for me. Maybe I'll just take a day off and see what happens. (I haven't checked my LJ flist today yet. I love you all but its making me so sick.) (Yes, clearly I'm talking about Spore. Ha ha.)

My best hope is that after a little while I'll be able to swallow my anger and just live with it, unpleasant as it is, for as long as necessary. But when there's a fresh new outrage (or two) every goddamn day, boy, it can be hard to find equilibrium, you know?
