Which is part of why it is difficult for _me_ to turn off the screen. 
I'm trying to pay less attention to what's going on in the United States 
though. Much like YouTube which knows you so well that it always has yet 
another video for you to watch, American news has just enough drama for 
you to keep your eyes peeled. Trying to get away from what seems to be 
an endless distraction is proving to be very difficult.
