🚨 DISCLAIMER 🚨
News stories from the internet today are more important than ever and deeply affect many people. In no way is this video meant to detract from those stories or disrespect those involved and/or affected. I'm simply not an authority on these subjects and will never pretend to be; I just enjoy finding strange news stories hiding in plain sight and sharing them as a brief intermission from the absolute insanity and injustice going on today. Keep fighting the good fight, stay safe, and listen to each other. ✌️❤️

📺 About this series
------------------
For the first time in our history, thanks to technology and connectivity, we are collectively experiencing all the global human suffering and have yet to evolve in order to process it all without feeling the weight of it on our psyches. Diversion Alert serves as a respite from it not out of disregard for real issues, but as solely a snippet of medicating amusement.
