I speak to my dog in complete sentences which was a mistake because now she knows every synonym for park, walk, treats, and any time we're referring to her even if we just say 'her,' 'it,' or 'the hound.' She even learned that any time we spell a word it's related to something she likes and she goes bonkers.
This is the worst thing I've seen in a week or so and the more you think about it the worse it gets. Congratulations on destroying my psyche, I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Nah, fuck all that. I've stopped following most mainstream news and my mental health has improved significantly for it. Having a neverending sense of anxiety and impending doom 24/7 is no way to live, and it seems as if that's exactly the effect that major news outlets are trying to have. It hasn't fixed my anxiety but it's a huge improvement not having it constantly exacerbated day after day.
If you had to take a break from that bullshit to avoid going completely insane, then good on you for taking care of your mental health, and believe me that is not a valid reason for you to be respected less.
