The kitties we are fostering are back from the vet.

They took all the balls. Eye balls and testicals.

They are still purry little sweethearts and better people than all of society.

Yeah, everything needs a little tweaking now. Most tips for coping with depression suggest you get out and socialize and no of course don’t do that.

if you want to help ameliorate the symptoms of waking up and dwelling for 2 hours on how completely hosed you are, I suggest going outside, getting some vitamin Delight!!! and going for a walk for 2 miles during which you'll ignore the desire to cross the street away from the waddling unmasked obese boomer couple

Well McKinsey has been training people how to work 18 hours a day, in an unergonomic setting, never escaping the small group of people around them, while situationally depressed, for 90 years now. It just turns out it’s their own staff and they don’t really know how to share the knowledge. It’s a weird time in consulting rn.

lol i assumed their BAs were probably at their most mentally stable right now because they weren't doing 80% travel

you can always tell a McKinsey boy by who is actually intimate friends with the airport bartenders

Apparently the new talking point that got distributed out to the younger college educated chuds is that the debunked and non peer reviewed CA study that claimed 20% of the population already got exposed is proof that we need to end shutdowns.

Who decides what the talking point of the week is,? I keep seeing it everywhere like 3 weeks later

Also, a researcher at Berkely said in an interview that it's not "guaranteed that there will be a second wave" or something to that effect and now it's basically assured there's no second wave

the talking point of the week is actually determined by a team of Accenture consultants who finished undergrad last year. Accenture underbid McKinsey for the contract.

Apparently a lot of fish are coming back around Waikiki and in Hanauma Bay but the reefs are all dead from climate change and the sunscreen thing was always feel good nonsense.

The other big change I've seen is that the military is doing ten times as many practice flights since the airspace isn't clogged with commercial planes anymore

sunscreen wasn't ever a major problem. The top two killers of coral are high temperatures (climate change) and fresh-water events (urban impermeable land buildup and runoff). Sunscreen isn't good and it stresses out the coral, but it's like getting punched in the arm after a fire burned off all your skin and you already died of smoke inhalation.

At the moment everyone's distracted by the USA, since they got a head start and can afford relatively widespread testing.

It's the pH changes in the ocean that's the real tipping point for ecosystem collapse. Luckily the models for that appear to have way underestimated the buffering capacity of the ocean, account for too little mixing and assume a unrealistically high partial pressure of CO2 at the surface.
