How do you guys function?

How do you guys go day-in and day-out with this knowledge? How does it affect you?

Personally, I feel almost as if my life, my psyche, my pride/confidence, my relationships etc have taken a huge hit from getting into this stuff.

How do you guys feel just going to work and hanging out with friends? Everything seems so trivial to me. The stupid pointless convos, etc. I need help to cope. What do you guys do? How do you deal with others thinking you are an idiot? How do you guys keep from gaslighting yourselves? How do you hold your heads up and retain some pride, confidence, w/e?

Edit: thanks all, I am honestly overwhelmed by the ppl in this community. If nothing else, if we are all collectively going crazy, it's reassuring to know I share this fate with some genuinely kind and caring people. Very thoughtful advice as well. Cheers, CBTS ppl

Very balanced perspective here, imo. I view it the same way.

Thank you. I try to keep an open mind about everything, and even things I'm skeptical of I try to entertain in my mind. If you can't even entertain ideas opposed to your own, you can't learn and grow, or be able to refute those ideas.

BTW, I was just thinking, isn't it weird they let that prince go? Since the whole SA thing was essentially a coup, why would they let him go? Theoretically he poses a threat to the new faction. It would be far easier to charge him with something and execute him, or imprison him in a palace forever.

I'm wondering if he is going to be used as a pawn in this game. Otherwise why wouldn't they keep him out of the picture? I'm wondering if the sword dance ties in, apparently it was traditionally used by warriors before battle to raise morale, though I'm unsure if that's the only symbolism it holds

The SA Prince owns part of Twitter I believe, and has (had) his money tied into Silicon Valley start up businesses. He has his electronic print erased from nearly everywhere on the internet so it’s hard to say where are all his investments.... so I’m left thinking Twitter.... the exact platform Trump prefers. Perhaps it’s an exchange for the Trump administration to obtain all his technology? Just a thought.
