Join us on Tuesday June 10, for #DigiBlogChat topic: Digital Burnout: Recognizing It and Recovering from It! 

Everyone experiences burnout from time to time. Right now, there’s so much happening with politics in the U.S., wars around the world, and climate emergencies. People follow the news to stay in touch, sometimes at their own peril. But, like a train wreck, we can’t look away from the news. For a discussion about this and perhaps other side topics, join us!

Today’s chat topic and questions were worked up by mistressprime.bsky.social
