Incoherent and Unproductive Ramblings Day One

This feels bad; really bad.

How is the world going to deal with a pause for 2 months? 2 months if we are lucky - could be through this year  a lot longer. Who knows if it will abate and then reemerge with a vengeance in the fall? This is the new normal for a while.


Focus on the eventual rebound. What does that look like? What do you miss that you want back?

We are outside and socially active again.
Happy hours with friends.




The fucking "play by play" is killing me. The FOMO of not checking the news, but the depression from checking it. Why do I care about the stock market? It's like watching the barometer in a storm. It won't change the impact of how bad the storm will be, but at least I'll know? Fuck a barometer, I feel like I'm actually watching hurricane winds and torrential rains out the window.

I miss Dan Konigsberg's leadership. I bet dude sent out a very calming email. I guess I really mean that I wish I would get some reassurance from Larry. Something that speaks to this crisis. Anything.

Speaking of leadership - the "routine as usual" from Trump is very concerning. He is still tweeting about his normal political bullshit- "my friend was treated unfairly and I am going to pardon him, Obama did such a bad job it's his fault, Sleepy Joe had such a poor performance at the debate". Man wake the fuck up! That shit is nearly irrelevant right now. No one is worried about November, we are worried about April! Head in the sand!
