I've been taking it calmly. Haven't lost anybody in my immediate circle. I can feel my sanity drifting away though. Like a fistful of sand slipping out the side of your hand and scattering in the wind
Just got laid off a week ago from an industry you'd really expect to be doing well in a health crisis. Company shed 25 percent of its personnel. Unemployment will keep me going for a while, but there is a fear I'll never land a gig like that if things don't turn around.
Society is falling apart all around us, but people in general keeping a neutral face and a politely positive demeanor about it. Talking about how everything will be better in a couple of months when this all turns around. When everyone gets back to work. When the consumers start consuming again, and suburban families resume taking their children to Disney Land.
Meanwhile evictions are about to kick off end masse, and tens of millions of families will never recover. Still, I'm okay. I'll be okay for a while. Just living through peak hypernormalization.
