    Absurd news stories get more clicks, so the news is getting more absurd. Recently, things have legitimately seemed a bit more fucked up. I think some politicians, like MTG, recognize the more outlandish they are, the more coverage they get.

    While politics is everywhere and hard to miss, I dont have many conversations in real life about it. People seem to never really talk about it directly. You’ll get side comments or people alluding to the most recent thing, but thats about it.
