Unsubscribed

After years of getting so many emails, from stores I no longer shop at, political organizations I really don't want to hear from, and restaurants that I ate at once, I am unsubscribing with determination.

For a long time I kept the political emails because I was an inveterate petition signer.  But having been persuaded that petitions don't really make a difference (for the issue being addressed), those emails (so many!) became just so much spam.  In the current environment, I am really trying to avoid outrage triggers.  They are so ubiquitous!

So my email box is becoming a lot leaner and we will see how my anxiety levels respond over the next weeks.
