Hi,

Potential news-type triggers.






Bizi found this site a while ago.
It only has happy news:

Here is an example: Beach Garbage Recycled as Vacuum Cleaners

This is a good site because no one tells you about the local fires, excitment over the shopping season, the professional sports teams in your tv market, the latest crooked politician, . . . I absolutely do not want to know that. The stupid local stations can even try to get people excited about w e a t h e r. That is wrong -- to try to make us care more than we already do bout the weather.
I go to a weather site on the Internet for my weather.


I think that benefitting from kind of a web site depends on what you consider happy.

An article like the above gives me waaaaaay too many things to think about. I certainly don't want to be reminded of the sad state of the oceans or the fact that I am using lots of plastic in my own home . . . I also don't want to be reminded that this vacuum cleaner is outside my price range.
When am depressed and anxious, any news carries lots of emotion.

I stick to political news because it is not real. It is a game. I catch up about twice a week on political news. Usually I only watch it from a source that is not energetic. I want my political new slow and boring. Also, I want it from my perspective because I want to be comforted.
This of course only works if I keep the political news very limited and do not overdose by going to web sites too.
