  1. Today is March 13, 2024. It’s the fourth anniversary of the world turning upside down.

    Four years ago today was a Friday. At 5:30pm, when the work day ended, my staff and I packed up our desks and brought everything home. We were told that for the next couple of weeks we, meaning everyone in the entire company, would be working from home. The goal being to ride out this Covid-19 thing. Social distance, shelter in place, keep everyone healthy so that we don’t overrun the hospitals.

    Today is the fourth anniversary of the start of the Covid-19 lockdown. Well, it’s the start of things for me. My wife had already been working from home for two days by that point.

    Four years later and Covid-19 is still a thing. So much so that I am going to take a rapid test today to see if my sore throat is a Covid symptom or not. We’re still working from home more than not. Three days home, two days in the office. Nothing is quite back to normal, though it’s reasonably close now. At least we can go out and do stuff now, even if there’s still a chance of getting sick.

    We are adjusting, I guess. It’s never going to not be a thing, but at least we’re managing.

    Happy fourth Covid-aversary, folks. Celebrate by wearing a mask or something. HoHoCoughCoughCoughHo.

  8. found this quick #sociology primer on the "untact" society, a concept emerging in #korea really interesting -- but also ironically illustrated.

  13. How well do we do social distancing? We asked this question as cognitive psychologists in our recent study. Participants in this study attempted to stand 1.5-m away from another person, and we measured the interpersonal distance they produced. (1/5)

  16. Those wishing to #volunteer but not knowing where to start, or needing to #SocialDistance the Be My Eyes app may be perfect for you. It allows #Blind & #VisuallyImpaired people to video call you to ask for help w reading info, directions, matching outfits, finding objects etc. The calls are short, usually <10 minutes & the people I’ve interacted with are wonderful. There’s no obligation, tons of volunteers are in queue for each call so if u can’t answer someone will. bemyeyes.com

  20. given summer temps and all, the deferth day #birthday event wound up being an outdoors one and with only a fraction of the normal guest list in order to be a #SocialDistance compliant event during the #pandemic. that, too, was a big hit but presented different challenges because of having to bring things outdoors and providing furniture and stuff to make the whole thing possible. but still, zero transmission of covid and i got to see some people in-person. so, win!

  24. With all the holiday shopping and gatherings, please, Please, PLEASE continue to #MaskUp #SocialDistance and #WashYourHands

    I've had both my flu and #Covid boosters, but that won't stop other seasonal sicknesses.
    In my store alone we've had 7 call-ins this week for a nasty stomach bug, and I just watched a girl get sent home after getting sick.
    Never so glad to still be wearing my mask.

  31. I am so very concerned when I see hashtags like
    #CovidIsNotOver

    Covid has never been over. It's still going, it will forever be going. This is our new normal. We need to maintain #masking we need to maintain #SocialDistance but it doesn't need to be insane.

    Be responsible, don't get others sick. You don't feel well? Maybe stay home and stop licking people.

    This is basic hygiene and it I'm very disappointed in the rest of you, Humanity. Do better.

  33. Who the fuck cares if COVID-19 was manufactured by Mother Nature or a laboratory in China? The point is that COVID-19 is real and people are dying from it. Instead of playing the blame game and spreading misinformation, coordinate an effective counteroffensive to save as many lives as we can! #MaskUp #SocialDistance #SaveLives #COVID

    The pandemic isn't over. #WearAMask, #GetVaccinated, and #SocialDistance if you care about other people's wellbeing.

  41. @aerwaves
    Those PDF slides do contain some concerning facts about the medical procedure.

    Perhaps is it best to simply #socialDistance, cut a 2L plastic bottle into a #visor, #washYourHands and #wearAMask to inhibit the spread, as some people have been doing from the start.

    What do you think?

    Thanks for sharing this also. 💖 Merry Christmas from Australia.

  42. It appears that the virus has hit #SouthAustralia and #Adelaide.

    Dear residents, you now have the COVID we will not say anything more but this is your chance to show whether you have integrity.

    Will you follow #Melbourne with an initial piecemeal approach, targetting only migrants, or go hard?

    Can you #wearACovering and #socialDistance for two-weeks and prevent carnage. Or will you tow the #corporateLine for #personalGain and scream out for a fastTracked vaccine.

    Choose now. Act accordingly.

  43. Spürt ihr auch immer diesen plötzlichen Hustenreiz, wenn jemand sich vordrängelt, indem er sich in eure #SocialDistance reinstellt?

  44. भीड़ में या अकेले में आपके साथ खड़ा तथाकथित आपका 'हमदर्द दोस्त' भी नफरत फैलाने वाला खतरनाक #नफरती_चिंटू हो सकता है।
    इनसे बचने का एक ही उपाय है, इन्हें पहचानें और इनसे #SocialDistance बना कर रखें।

  45. Can’t get a hair cut due to COVID-19 and all the shops being closed. (And the shops SHOULD be closed #SocialDistance.)

    I'm not worried about it, but I'm getting kinda shaggy. I've never let my hair grow out, and I shaved my head for years, so that's not a problem. So should I:
