    Today I drank some tea, read some more of Linux Kernel Development, and helped my partner make jambalaya. An oddly "normal" day and I'm trying not to feel guilty about it.

        It pains me in a small way to read this. To whom, exactly, do you need to prove that you work enough or that you don’t enjoy life too much? You deserve some peace, Alice. For reals.

        I don't like to enjoy things when so many of my friends and fellow citizens are suffering. It feels wrong.

        You can enjoy your good fortune with a heartfelt sense of gratitude AND have compassion for people who are less fortunate. But by absorbing all this information about human suffering all over the world that you can't do much about, is that actually doing any good for anyone?

        haha welcome to my constant frame of mind. I want to preserve my mental health but I don't want to stick my head in the sand.

        You must always be mindful your own well-being. You cannot be of use to others if you're a mess inside, and no one can help your well-being better than you. Like when the oxygen masks drop in the airplane: "Put your own mask on first."

        feels like I'd be exercise my privilege in being able to ignore certain news I'm not even talking about "international events." I'm talking about stuff happening in America every day.

        We can limit the info we take in because we just don't want to know so we can proliferate some fantasy, or we can limit the info we take in because we recognize that we know enough, have developed compassion, and that knowing more is not to our benefit or the benefit of others.

        But if the need for more information is compulsive, that's where we really get into trouble. Same as the compulsive need for more [fill in any number of things here] is dangerous - it leads to bad results.
