Some more Russian bombings and we will stop paying attention to Gaza. Until something happens there and we stop paying attention to Ukraine. Then something happens somewhere and we stop paying attention to both. Because Never Again means Never Again as long as there isn't something more interesting

Guilty as charged. I’ve paid far less attention to Ukraine over the past 12 weeks because those other events are so all-consuming for me. Not because I care any less than I did before (the profile photo is my front porch, every day).

They are called NEWspapers for a reason. People get bored by repetition. And there’s always the old editorial adage — “if it bleeds, it leads.” The media need _fresh_ blood.

Correct. Let's not forget "somethings" r & have been happening. Smaller scale, relatively, not effectively re those living/ dying it. Syria, Turk/ Kurds, Sudan. Cld go on. 🥹
