  1. Looks like we can survive working remotely after all. However, remote by choice feels significantly different from mandatory.
  2. Virtual meetings are exhausting than in-person meetings. Even introverts agree.
  3. Baking is the new hobby of the century. The harder it is to make, the better.
  4. Why don’t people just use water and soap instead of toilet paper? Still, I think wiped asses are gross.
  5. So this is how it feels to have 7 weekends a week… or 7 weekdays a week. What’s the difference?
  6. I need to find a new standard answer when someone asks me “How are you?”. The classic “I’m good! You?” in a high-pitched voice is outdated.
  7. Why do homo sapiens believe more in politicians, than medical experts?
  8. Feeling bored is both a first-world problem and a privilege.
  9. I’m having shortness of breath: not sure if COVID symptom or I’m just too anxious that the world is on fire.
  10. Can I wake up now from this dream? Where’s the part where I fall into a cliff after being chased by wild gorillas?

Stay safe, stay home, homies🤞
