I hear you. Mr. Claret still watches Faux News, too. I’ve tried to talk to him about it, but like you, when things don’t happen as predicted, he just rolls his eyes, so we just don’t talk about it anymore. I don’t communicate my ideas very well and when I get frustrated, I tend to yell, so I have found it is just better to keep my mouth shut. Thank the Lord we can come here to discuss, learn, and vent.

Sounds like Mr. Goldfinch :-) He can’t even listen to Rush.
I’m not a good communicator either; I easily get flustered and stammer, and just quit trying. Even to type a paragraph reply, I have to cut, paste and juxtapose words to get them right. We have not had any TV in over two decades, so the internet has been where we both keep up to date, and the Mr. was “partially red-pilled” (though I have to avoid mentioning 17) until Jan. 6. It was like he got indigestion and took a black pill to soothe his tummy. He believes everything must be done in its proper order, and the certification of the EC votes shut the door on anything else happening.
Now he is preparing for life in a country and world which will get its well-deserved judgment from God.

Right there with you
except we don’t watch news.
My DH is too busy being entertained.
I don’t communicate my ideas very well either.
Believe me, it’s not the lack of communication skills. It’s the normalcy bias that you mentioned before.
My sons and my daughters-in-law think I am nuts.
I am happy for our Qlubhouse. :)
