This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we discuss touching grass and Sora's demise.
JASON: This is maybe not great to admit as a journalist, but I have taken a bit of a step back from the news lately in an effort to protect my brain. What I mostly mean by this is that I have started listening to music instead of mainlining podcasts at 1.75x speed anytime that I am not actively staring at a screen. I have also started reading fiction again, like, on actual printed paper. I think these steps have actually done wonders for my sanity, but I would be lying if I said that it has had zero impact on my job. It’s a bit of a give and take.
