4. It's very wonky today.

Maybe Putin's having some fun with his toy.

5. I follow a bunch of local radio and television news stations

Trumps comments on NBC license issue has those feeds with thousands in comments, my Facebook is at a crawl.

Coincidence?

6. Maybe because

I deactivated my account yesterday? 😉

Cannot tell you how liberating this was for me!

I do miss my news sources and am trying to figure out how to replace. It was a great central repository. I deactivated my twitter, too and may try to set up an account under a different name. Simply to have access to those news sources all in one place, Axios, Vox... debating this. I just wanted to opt out of the madness that I was experiencing.

7. Google News is awesome but flawed of course

Check it out. It does have its flaws but you get practically everything there. Or you can search easily.
