By the way, I'm not following gas prices, any world wars, or monkey pox either.

Now we have monkey pox, the newest ADHD trigger.

I do know where you're going with it, but I have disability level ADHD and find the casual diagnosis of it to slag off humanity's collective attention span problems to be a cheap knock off of the real thing. Muddies the waters so to speak for those who actually struggle with it.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I don't think it's a sinister distraction. I think a lot of things are engineered to be distractions... but not this one. I think it's just another stupid, comical celebrity BS drama. If anything, it "distracts" people from the negativity in these days, thus giving them something to laugh about. And it sure rakes in those TV ratings. Cha ching $
Doesn't all have to be negative! Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar.

What blew my mind was video of her testifying in court where she was caught on camera strangely sniffing a napkin.

I predict we will need some monumental social issue to keep everyone distracted from the real issues....
Maybe something like Abortion Riots or White Supremist mass murders.

In my personal bubble, I'm not following either of these stories, other than with Depp there's something about feces and Elon is a troll. Why would I care about either of these people? I have a life.

And for those who don't understand this, what you pay attention to is up TO YOU! Not the media. No one forces anyone to turn on the TV, use their cell phone, or participate in anything they don't care to.
