The president's new outrageous tweet / orange man = bad, another wedding blown up in some middle eastern country, someone famous said something inappropriate / groped someone that got them fired, earthquake/fire/tsunami wiped out a few thousand people in some distant land, another school got shot up, "clear signs we're in a bubble" and the market is about to crash, something generic about Silicon Valley's hubris, something about how another oppressed group is being screwed over etc etc.
I don't think we're really meant as a species for this constant stream of depressing information we can't act upon, it's not good for us. Apathy seems like the only natural response to this barrage of stressors.
