I do often sit in my car after I arrive at my destination, and my morale is fine, so I didn't find this either alarming or sad.

I used to really respect Associated Press.. "just the info"

But now I can't. The AM station I listen to runs AP news at the top of the hour and I find myself disgusted at their sanewashing of Trump and presenting GOP voices without context..

Not the worst, but pretty bad.

Weird this just popped into my feed when my BF recently mentioned my son sitting in the car for a few minutes when he gets home & made me realize that I do this too. I’ma see if they can tell me why we do this but I suspect it’s to do with having been children who had a hard time with transitions.

Given that earlier this week it announced it was pivoting to video, selling its data to betting markets, and surrendering to the robots, yes.

At this rate, give it a few more months and CNN will be like "Killing a small animal just to feel something can help you reset, if you keep a few things in mind."
