Hey Kat! I love the work you’ve been doing. I have a question about internet journalism more broadly: as part of your job you have to be plugged into everything that’s happening on social media all the time. Aside from the regular hazards of vengeful fans etc., that time on twitter/yt/tiktok/etc seems like a job hazard in itself. I know personally in trying to keep up with trends, my attention span has been whittled to a nub. Do you find yourself dealing with side effects of being very online? And if so, how do you manage them to stay as productive (and probably more importantly, as healthy) as you can be given the requirements of the job?
