What Happens 99.9% of the Time

If you consume news it's easy to believe the world is a dangerous place, with tragedy around every corner. While there is unnecessary suffering we can work to eradicate, and there are hazards to avoid; mostly mundane things are happening around the clock. These moments can appear boring, disappointing, or utterly beautiful depending on the mental state of the observer.

99.9% of The Time News has three goals:

• ​Bring attention to the tactics that corporate news uses to play on our fear reflex.
  
• Demonstrate that life in most of the world is rather safe.
• Spark an awareness that we are being desensitized to regular life by bombastic media.

If you find the content of this series boring, please take one moment to examine that feeling. This is normal life. Isn't it a terrible thing to view normal life as boring? How did our minds get overstimulated to the point where we can't find the simple beauty in day to day existence? How can we reverse that trend?
