Yep. Or how about having to search your mind for a simpler word when expressing a thought in conversation.

We were healthier then because we weren’t inundated by chemicals in our foods and by junk food. What does it matter? RFK will change nothing in that regard, but his lies about vaccines, his lack of knowledge or concern about treating complex diseases, and the carnage at the NIH will hurt us all.

I had the thought that discussing it like it’s a real economic policy validates it. I was staying in a hospital room with a family member who’d had a fall, flipping through channels, and had to skip a bunch of news shows that seemed to debating tariffs like they were more than vicious bullshit.
