I was camping without cell service.

Came back to news of a massive IT outage and Biden dropping out, pretty wild how much can happen when you're off the grid

Holy crap, same here! Came back to service and phone blew up with all the news.

In my experience the opposite happens more often, you expect at least some major news but nothing of note happened and you have no notifications from people trying to get ahold of you etc. so you just feel weirdly empty because you spend so much time and effort keeping up with the world, friends and family normally.
