I sit, per usual, working, writing, while MSNBC supplants information in my brain. Some would call that brainwashing, but I would prefer to refer to it as information osmosis. The realization hits me. Has everything always been this bad? Have we reached the tipping point of knowing too much? How can it be healthy to simultaneously know all about the egg that got more Instagram likes than Kylie, the good and bad around the choice of Adam Levine, to say nothing of the opinions of his performance, ALL the while navigating the finer points of acquired citizen legal expertise thanks to pundits covering the Russia investigation. The bigger question: could I be exhausted?
