Sad! NYU journalism prof Jay Rosen has already flunked his Election Day wellness check

Jay Rosen teaches journalism at NYU. So this tweet actually explains quite a lot:

Today I don't mind admitting that I am mentally and spiritually exhausted. Nerves fried, patience worn, smile fake, soul damaged, insights depleted, and I'm feeling like all the words have been said. My wrist aches from doom scrolling. My shock meter's busted. My mind won't reel.

If his goal was to make us feel sorry for him, it worked. But only because he very clearly needs serious help.

And we’re off! https://t.co/wFuWY99I8X

Well, Jay’s off, anyway.

Actually, I am unbothered by today because I am an adult who will accept the results peacefully and adapt according to the results (mostly wall st. moves and adaptation) just like I did any other election. because that’s what people do. except the rioters https://t.co/vHksxZZsql

It is a total waste of time putting so much emotional energy into something you have no control over whatsoever https://t.co/mS9RDyPJqg

Mentally ill man tired of fighting the voices inside his head.

Interesting how an election can spiritually drain people. Seems like a terrible source for spirituality. https://t.co/jYqIXJ41wR

Jay Rosen seems like a terrible source for education.

This is one of the many reasons you shouldn't be teaching journalism. https://t.co/w835JhPA4F
