I deleted ny twitter account. It was mainly due to the ethics of the owner rather than the content - but the content was largely toxic.
My life has been generally better as a result.
From the news point of view I've largely disengaged from politics and culture wars (which seem to be merging). My perception is that over on this side of the pond it is nowhere near as bad as USAnians have it - but it is still pretty depressing.
Oddly though I can keep up with the USAnian "situation" without it being too stressful. I guess being partly insulated from any consequences helps. Having said that - we seem to be no more than a decade behind USA, and the gap is narrowing.
Oh - and cycling as close to daily as possible. There is nothing better for mental health than gentle exercise in the countryside.
