Some people don't have the option of ignoring the news. Be able to ignore the news is a mark of privilege.

Reply to LPT Request: Is there a way to reheat french fries while keeping them soft? by feministsnarker
Wait fries don’t get soggy in the microwave? But everything else does, that’s so weird.

Ah, slight problem: a lot of minorities, like LGBT people or POCs, don't exactly have the luxury of just ignoring hateful people... Because sometimes the things those hateful people say inspires other hateful people to walk into our spaces and kill a bunch of our people.

They won't notice you not engaging. There's a reason deplatforming works.

A) Select the language. Ideally, it should be a language which will have some form of relevance in your life - You need to practice it in some way or another. Join an online forum, look for people who speak it around you and try to connect with them, do something which will force you to use it. And it has to be ONE language.
Let me repeat - O.N.E. language.
B) Duolingo. WAIT - Before everyone jumps on me telling me how bad it is - I know. This is just step 2 (or B) and it's meant to help you grasp the very basics with the ability of hearing the pronunciation. You want to learn present tense, past tense, future tense and present continuous.
You don't need to know every single word in the dictionary, just understand the basic grammatical syntax for those 4 tenses and know some basic verbs.
C) Narrate your life out loud. After you wake up, start telling yourself out loud what you are doing. When thinking of what you will do next say out loud what you will do. At the end of the day, recap your day in past tense.
Obviously, you will not know every single verb for every action you're taking throughout the day - You will google it everytime you need to. A dictionary works too, but the idea is for you to start googling it one, two, three, four times until it sticks. You will start building your lexical up from here.
Eventually you will start recognizing patterns in the language, and by speaking it out loud all the time you will get comfortable with the pronunciation faster.
D) Once you're comfortable enough with narrating your whole day a few days in a row without needing to google too much, move on to learning present perfect and past participle, alongside the grammatical syntax for questions. (Duolingo, once again).
Introduce them into your narrations somehow.
E) Remember I said the language you picked had to be relevant in your life somehow? This step is why - Practice it. Start using it in real life for whatever you planned to use it. You already know the basics and got enough to communicate with someone else. So just get used to it.

People often mistake limerence (which is objectification) for love. They objectify the person they "love" and justify their behaviors bc of the feelings they're experiencing (every stalker ever). Often bc they lack psychological differentiation and emotional regulation skills.

Little bit of tinfoil in the drain, dump oil/grease/fat in it. Let it solidify or at least cool down a bit and then in the trash.
