Fuck this fucking bull shit

[Love Child]

The real world is fucking scary
Today I read about bodies hanging from bridges near Mexico (happened Dec 22)
I read about a man who shot at a home invader-turns out it was his father who was on crack and was trying to help or save his son's family-only he was doing it by breaking a window with a large item in his hands.
And then I read about LEO shooting at a man emerging from a house fire, only he had a gun in his hands and he was drunk and crawling and now dead (for good reason)
I can't even remember the other shit I read about today
How did I used to do this? How did i used to read the news every day-watch the news-wtf? Has it gotten worse or is it the same?
And people wonder why I don't want to move to the other side of the state, this is why. Fuck that!

I had to watch a video of kids opening up surprise presents that they were going to disneyland-and that was the best news of the day. Thank God.

I was in that area of Mexico a week or two before those murders happened. Two drugged out cartel guys kept going by trying to sell cocaine, heavily armed cops were all around though.

Sometimes when I'm here alone I won't even turn on the TV and there have been many days when I don't read the news either and it's always reflected in my demeanor, I remain quiet and relaxed. The days that I am up on current events are the days I'm mouthy and filled with snark. I prefer the quiet relaxed Duchess.

I agree 100%.
The radio plays at work in one person's office and when I am there and listening to the news it is hard not to drown it out. I mean I am not all "Drama" about it, but seriously the other day I am trying to concentrate on numbers, meanwhile a story is playing in the background about someone being burned to death. I almost turned it off. A schoolmate of mine died that way.
That shit is fucked up.
I know if I told that person to turn off the radio while I was in there it would be fine. i was just so shocked that day-I had to immediately turn everything off inside me to continue to work.
I dont' want to be that person either, so I would rather ignore all news as if it didn't exist!!!!!!!!

What purpose does it serve me to know about all of this stuff anyway? Politics I get, weather I get
but I don't need to fucking know about all of this other stuff.

Stay away from the news for a week or so it will be well worth it. Certainly there will not be anything happening in the world that affects you personally.

This is why I get all my news from the internet. I can more easily choose what news I want to read or not read.
