Today I am avoiding the news by looking at this projection of the Earth that unifies the oceans instead of focusing on the land masses:
The BlueSky post where I saw it said:
Every map slices the ocean apart to keep the land whole. This one does the opposite: on the Spilhaus projection, every ocean on Earth is one connected body of water, with a year of real satellite-tracked currents flowing across it. Data: NASA OSCAR + NOAA OISST
The original post, linked above, is a short GIF showing the color-correlated currents shifting over time.
