    I need a respite from a mailbox full of essays from people who’ve discovered that present events confirm their long-held beliefs. If the events of the last few weeks have changed your mind, what did have they changed your mind about, and why?

        I love this Q, @YAppelbaum. These weeks have changed my mind about digital connectivity. Yes, I'm still ranting about how disinformation spreads online, etc. But I'm also finding real human connections I never imagined: w/ family, colleagues, students, friends, even strangers.

        I am optimistic that the voices of those who are usually ignored or shut out, are being heard. They understand what it means to face the same world when your own circumstances have changed. There is valuable research being done in the US and around the world. Welcome it.

        I thought Republicans elites were in on the joke and would surely step in to sand down Trump's rough edges for something as potentially cataclysmic as a pandemic. Oops.
