  • It's been exactly one whole year of forest fires, murder hornets, pandemics, isolations, protests, quarantines, elections, vaccines, and riots and yet here we find ourselves, back at the beginning... What would happen if I tried to explain what's happening now to the January 2020 version of myself?

      At first I was panicked and crying that I was forced to work throughout this entire pandemic as an essential worker...but now I'm actually a little grateful. I still go to work with the public 6 days (50 hrs) a week as usual, and then I still spend my nights with my boyfriend and my mom I live with as usual. As an essential worker and an introvert, not too much has changed in my life, besides the fact I haven't been in a restaurant or at a concert in a year.

    A nurse was trying to start an IV in the back of my hand the other day. As she was about to insert the needle, she said: “I’m just going to hold your hand here for a minute” and my mental response was a whispered “thank you.”

      I had surgery right before they postponed absolutely everything here in 2020, and the anesthesist came up to me and went "I would really like to shake your hands, but unfortunately that's not possible at the moment. I'm going to put the IV needle in" *grabs my hand, starts tapping the vein* and my mind was like "This is NOT making sense" :P.
      (Right after that they took a final temperature reading and I was showing to be close to a fever, and I saw 3 doctors looking at each other like "Oh shit, this could mean trouble!" and then I got how serious it was after having underestimated it like many other people did before).

      Short selling is when you sell the item before you own it. Hopefully it will be available at a lower price when you finally have to buy it to give it to the person you sold it to. In other words, you can make money by betting that a stock will go down in value.

      We have. Even without all the other crazy/awful stuff, just the pandemic made us, an extremely social species, isolate ourselves. This is something that we already knew causes us emotional and psychological damage, but the pandemic made it so so much worse, now add in the other awful stuff and it's something that will affect us probably for years, maybe decades after the pandemic is actually over.
