After the election I decided to reduce my news consumption; it was causing more anxiety than it was worth. I also wanted to try to write more humorous columns (I write for Raw Story, Salon, a few others.) I tried it at least a half dozen times, but the truth is, I couldn't find much humor in what was happening. The funniest thing is that Trump's incompetence will be what sinks him, but even that is more tragic than funny. Jeff Tiedrich and Borowitz are keeping the faith admirably, and they deserve every subscriber they get. So yeah, I hear you, but it's a struggle.

Always! First of all the best "journalists" in America today are our comedians: Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, John Oliver & more speak truth to power & expose the ludicrous hypocrisy of Trump & his GOP thugs

Using mockery & insults.show all of US who they really are & we feel stronger & more united for it

Watching great comedies is a balm for the soul
