      I was unemployed, isolated, and anosmic-- then covid hit and I was like, “hey everyone, welcome to the club! Yes, it does suck but at least now there’s people to empathize with.”

        Yeah I felt the same.

        Also afterwards it’s been rather easy to ask people to imagine if lock down had lasted for five years instead, and how they would feel about it.
