To understand news, we must also understand the ways it can affect us, including our mental health. Watching disturbing or distressing news over and over can cause lingering trauma. Sometimes you need to take a break. Especially looking at you, Black people. #NewsLiteracyWeek

I'm probably really late with this, but I wanted to share something with my fellow overwhelmed overachievers. I learned this neat trick called "Lowering My Impossibly High Standards" and IT. IS. AMAZING.

@giannanino THE FUNDAMENTAL ATTRIBUTION ERROR When "the other" (those not like me) does well, it is luck. When "the other" does poorly, it is due to vice (laziness). When "the in group" (those like me) do well, it is due to virtue (hard work). When the "in group" does poorly, it is bad luck
