Be very mindful about the content you consume online.

You might think you are above its negative influence on your mood and thoughts, but you aren't. Nobody is.

The content you consume influences the way you think over time. Even if you are on a platform to fight the opposition, what the algorithm is feeding you there will have an influence on yourself over time.

Be careful what you feed to your brain.

...which the creates the following dilemma:

Do I expose myself to news about topics which I care and worry about, or do I avoid them? Following happenings that I probably can't change may just bring me down (in fact, it does, and it's not pretty!) but ignoring them means I forego the ability to even have an informed opinion, and basically ignore a catastrophe that could be at least softened if enough people gave a damn ...
