I’ve had the same experience with the weather. Around May 2022, the Powers That Be decided that people checking the weather would also be interested in knowing monkeypox statistics. That did it for me. I haven’t checked the weather since, and I’m happier for it. I feel like a little kid -- what's today gonna be like?

You’re absolutely right about overcoming the latest Scary and Depressing Thing through hard work and preparation. There’s always something more that can be done, and it helps to give ourselves a task to complete rather than just sitting around wringing our hands.

This Spring, 2022, Congress voted to end the time changes. Starting after next year's Spring forward the time will not change again. We will perpetually on Daylight Savings Time. I'd prefer Standard time being our "Standard" time, but what'cha gonna do with a bunch of loser lawyers? `\_(•_•)_/`
