A thing I've been doing slowly on the side is writing a sort of oral history of news events that have been significant to me in my life, and it's quite staggering to realize how little of everyday news actually matters in the grand scheme of things

if I could redesign my news consumption with a snap of the fingers, I would reduce it by about 90%, and replace most of it with history reading. reading history is like binge-watching past seasons of current affairs and you learn a lot more a lot quicker
