Awesome, thank you!

Edit: looked up Lethal Company. Sounds pretty cool

I mean, how do we really know he didn’t just push himself out of a window? 🤔

I truly can’t tell if this is a perfect textbook nostupidquestion or someone being disingenuously obtuse.

chooses his closet advisers

Fitting typo

I’m not in disagreement

Too late. It’s that whole thing where it takes ten times the effort to undo misinformation than to introduce it (or however that goes). This narrative is here to stay. Those who try to counter it will just be in the role of the “Well Ackchyually” guy in the conversation

Trump doesn’t need to do much because he’s got a whole team behind him to get things done. He’s just some shitty Trojan horse

Exactly. Words could never convey the absolute unexpectedness of this. Why, even with a so venerable, uncompromised, unflinchingly truth bound institution as the NYT calling attention to this (and in such a timely manner for citizens to digest and make use of the information) I can scarce believe that this development is indeed occurring

The FIFA games from a couple of years ago had an instance of that, with the Japanese spectators seen cleaning up in the stands after a game

I hadn’t either but tbf most people hadn’t heard of the fediverse until that Reddit thing. In this case the entirety of Wikipedia could along with an exodus, should one be warranted

That’s pretty good, actually

Were you in any particular transition during that period? Like high school to college or 20s to 30s? I wonder if that worsened the impact for people, if the social isolation happened to time with important life transitions

This is exactly the type of thing I was reflecting on. Have you also found yourself having a lower tolerance for stressors?

Absolutely. It comes down to exposure therapy, basically. Reacclimation.

Yeah, I can tell that I get a little weird if I’m alone too long. And the time it takes is shorter since covid. I’m assuming from too much time alone during the peak period

I’m more referring to people who aren’t so much choosing to isolate. Not a preference, but a loss of the capacity or opportunities to socialize

now find it completely weird and disorienting to deal with people in public now.

This is what I’ve been hearing (and experienced). And that it’s not a preference, it’s more that the nervous system has struggled to recalibrate; or there was not enough opportunity for it to do so and that has led to a feedback loop
