      Did you try and fail to to convince your elderly relatives to avoid holiday gatherings? I have a suggestion. Propose waiting until March. Things are grim now so it's a horrid time to get sick but the US could experience a dramatic turnaround. Hope is real. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/12/wait-until-march/617410/ …pic.twitter.com/RE8QhETaDd

      On this, @JoeBiden could have great impact today. One reason families gather for the holidays is people get the week off work and school. Biden could promise a week-long national holiday this summer as incentive for postponing family gatherings (a marshmallow for those who wait).

          Possible death from COVID is incentive enough for adults.

          Because rank-and-file U.S. citizens have SO exhibited proficiency at solving the marshmallow delayed gratification experiment. I mean, Americans fail at EVERY SINGLE LEVEL of that test.

          I've commented on this before, but marshmallow tests require institutional trust. You have to believe that if you delay gratification there is in fact a marshmallow in your future. https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1339604420548386816 …

          Hey, guess what? Not everybody gets a week off for the holidays. If not for the pandemic, I'd be working on Christmas, NYE, and New Year's Day. If @JoeBiden declares a federal holiday in May, I'll probably work that, too.

          Grow up people! Most families do NOT get a week off for Christmas holidays unless they teach. Gifts can be mailed or delivered & once everyone is vaccinated, family get-togethers can be planned for late Spring or Summer & have a gr8 time not worrying abt social distancing & masks
