The worst thing about lockdown is that the anxiety of it all compels me to read the news and engage with politics. I hate politics, it's a soap opera, and learning about it never makes me feel happy. I resent that the information I need so that I can predict whether I'm going to be able to go outside next week is in the same place as stories about rich people suing each other. I resent that, because I'm anxious, I know I'm going to read it all.
