One of my goals lately is to only engage with controversial topics a small amount, with high quality comments.

If something is easy to talk about, I go for it. But highly charged topics, I want to say less of higher quality. That means providing data or other primary sources, and it means drafting things and proofreading the comments.

My reason for this is (a) I don’t think it’s healthy to bite off more than I can chew and (b) I don’t think it’s healthy to bite off nothing. My intention is to do what I can, well.
