So I’m formatting my printed blog archives and…
…I’m currently in early- to mid-2020 and am having some pretty wild flashbacks to early Covid times. Remember how scared people were? Remember how much people cared?
Remember how we all agreed to shut down and stay home and try to eradicate this thing?
It’s weird re-living all that stuff via my blog posts. I’ve got one post in mid-March when I was sure that everything would be back to normal enough by the end of the summer so that I could still go down and visit my mom before fall semester started.
Ha.
Though as depressing as those first 1.5 years were, it’s even more depressing now because nobody takes it seriously anymore despite all the deaths, illnesses, and damage to everyone’s bodies.
Humans: the dumbest of the dumb.
Woah, woah, woah, hold on…
Are you telling me that with all the absolute nonsense going on this year, the Doomsday Clock has only moved forward 20 seconds in 2020?
Like, I get that it’s based on nuclear threat more than anything else, but I would think that threat would, by default, increase with all this madness of COVID, Trump, the US election in general, climate change, etc. going on all at the same time this year.
Maybe it’ll change again after the election, who knows.
