Driving into work today, I mused on the fragility of society, the collapse of empires, and the melting of permafrost.

In other words: Just another Tuesday.

I’ve got covid for the first time and my brain is reminding me of random facts (like how a group of hippos is a thunder or bloat) instead of resting.
