Ever since this pizzagate thing broke everything else in my life instantly faded to background noise. I can't focus on work or school, my diet and exercise went to shit, and I'm obsessively checking for updates on this story. It has consumed. I really wish I somehow didn't learn about this until the semester ended, cause it's fucking with me. Ignorance really is bliss.
I know people made fun of Hillary fans after Trump won, but seriously if they honestly think Trump is as bad as I think the people in power being investigated right now, they have my sympathies. It's not their fault the media lied to them.
Anyone in the same boat? Got tips on clearing your head of all this to focus on finals?

Oh ffs. Turn off your wifi and get back to school. Limit your time to an hour a day or something reasonable. This shit has been going on for decades and yes, I am also consumed but I am old and this confirms so many weird things I have heard and seen in my life, its not news so much as confirmation. So do not compromise your future by fucking up your exams. It will be here when your semester ends.

I just learned about it recently. I guess it's like a darker version of learning Santa isn't real.

I am so sorry, because learning that world is not what you thought really is devastating. But, you still need to live in real life, so try to focus on your immediate tasks at hand. So much of the world is trying to hide it to cover their asses, and it may be that nothing happens (nobody is arrested or held accountable). The internet reveals so much so quickly and there is a darker sense of the future that I don't know how to console you except that every generation has had to face real challenges threats and fears that seemed like imminent armageddon and yet life goes on and people find and create value in their day to day.

Yeah, I'll cope in time. Part of me hates the idea of just moving on and doing my own thing because I can imagine the elites just laughing at the few that notice what's happening since people don't believe them and they're powerless to change anything. I'm hoping for a mass awakening soon, but I guess I shouldn't hold my breath.
