 It saddens me to know that there are people so crippled with anxiety that they live their lives online. One of the things COVID took from us is a sense of communal living, where people did stuff together and that was fun. It used to be a deep human need. Now a generation gets anxiety thinking about engaging in it.

 I have been struggling with this since covid. 
 Covid didn't take anything, these people - the adults anyway - gave that stuff away by complying with the cruel insanity of lockdowns.

 The response to covid was one of the most successful divide and conquer campaigns in human history.

 The third place, a term for social environments outside of home and work, is very important. Iā€™m happy to have returned to a traditional college with in-person classes. Real-life interaction matters.
