AT this point, I've just stopped watching, it's been that way since Philando Castile. I watched that at work and spent the whole day crying at my desk.

I still track the stories, but I've stopped viewing the content for a variety of reasons.
My wife is on the same track.

Where are you?

Poll result (25 votes)

YES. I have to know what the fuck is happening to us. (6 votes)Vote

No. Showing the video repeatedly does nothing for the families

This is a really good point. But it's a double edged sword IMO.
May 26th 2020

the bigger problem is people being shielded from reality imo.
