A few days ago, President Donald Trump added yet another comment to his repertoire of racist bigotry by calling majority-black countries shitholes. Well, let's face it, America isn't exactly a bed of roses. Like, clearly. Because he's president.
So this is a list I've compiled of things to shift focus to, of things to appreciate, read, listen to, etc. that might distract you, albeit in a healthy way.
David Letterman's interview with Barack Obama on Netflix, proving that there are incredible old white men. Unlike Trump.
The podcast, Crash On My Couch with Arden Rose and Will Darbyshire, a hilarious power couple I've looked up to for years who always manages to make me grin like a fool in public when I listen with earphones, their "Weekly Idiot" segment in particular.
The Belgium Popcorn Movement. Google it, you won't regret it. Their music has served as my life's soundtrack for the past month and a half.
Shane Dawson, one of the only huge-hit Youtubers left with an actual soul.
The newest season of Black Mirror, because yes it could be worse.
Dave Chappelle's comedy specials because sometimes you just have to laugh at low-key-politically-incorrect-but-lowkey-accurate jokes.
Any pre-1999 movie/show. Nostalgia is sometimes the best cure for millennial blues. Some of my best recommendations are Moonstruck (pictured above), Grease, Clueless, Dirty Dancing, The Fresh Prince, Friends, The Godfather, West Side Story, and How to Steal a Million.
That's all she (I) wrote!
