My wife is the same. Always telling me to: “tune out what you can’t control. Ignore the news as it just makes you negative honey. And do t talk to me about any of it because I hear crap all day at the hospital so I don’t want to hear it here. Just pay attention to the kids and don’t go researching negativity.”

Sometimes when she talks like this, I have this vision/daydream. It’s of ANTIFA marching down are street burning houses as they go and dragging people and their children into the street to kneel to BLM or they get beat down by a mob. And my wife suddenly, magically coming around and yelling at me to, “DO SOMETHING!! STOP THEM!! Why didn’t YOU KNOW this was coming?!?!”

And me, sitting on the couch calmly with a Party Bag of regular Lays Potato Chips on my lap, watching a 3-Stooges re-run, glancing over at her with that funny I-Told-Ya-So look on my face, and telling her, “Hey, I’m trying to ignore the negativity going on out there like ya told me. They’re still a few houses away. When they get to our neighbors lawn I’ll get my shotgun and go on out and explain the 2A to them in front of you and the kids. If I live through what happens, or not, then maybe you’ll finally listen to somethings I needed to say months if not years ago.”
