In reply to the discussion: Check in here if you have Outrage Fatigue. [View all]Dread Pirate Roberts
(1,896 posts)28. I'm pacing myself!
Slow down a couple of laps, walk with my hands on my hips for a couple of minutes, then get right back into it. Overexerting in this heat will kill you. But yes, I'm fatigued. Outrage is hard emotion to keep up. One thing is for certain, Trump and the republicans don't miss a day without giving the opportunity to kick it up a notch again.

I find that I cannot listen to the news any more. I read it but I can't listen.

What fatigues me is friends, neighbors, co-workers, family, STILL sticking up for Trump.

It's an industry now. The "outrage industry" that pumps out endless "outrage porn"

Watching the crime channel or stories about serial killers is more uplifting.
