I guess people with less traveling work get their paragraph breaks with weekend trips? That’s also shot now since we have an aging cat who requires a lot of care, and pet sitters are dicey now. Without the cat we’d likely be doing a lot of weekending.

Up in the air —> the grounded game It’d be fun to watch a sequel to the George Clooney movie where he plays the same character through Covid

This reminds me of a point about a planetary physics point: habitability requires plate tectonics. Without quakes, planets don’t circulate many of the elements necessary for life. I think phosphorous and some others. You need lifequakes or life becomes uninhabitable

Might as well compound the assholery... international trip every year or so was a nice part of globalist lifestyle. Nothing like a break in a foreign country to really shake up the brain. I think my last trip outside US was September 2018... so that’s 2 years now.

Actually no business trip outside of the west coast in 2 years. Seattle, Bay Area, Portland, LA, Sacramento 🤔 Personal trips elsewhere for family stuff, but work travel was one-dimensional. Now zero-dimensional.

Nomad solastalgia. Homesickness for the itinerant lifestyle, paid for by others. This is probably the end of that lifestyle even after Covid. Air travel limited to essential family stuff and rare vacations. Good for climate, bad for my sanity.
