While it's perhaps inaccurate to call the current Covid-19 crisis "unprecedented" (given that the Spanish Flu outbreak in 1918 led to many of the same measures), I think it's reasonable to say that it's unprecedented in my lifetime - and I'm not exactly young.
Accordingly, in these heady times, I don't think it's uncommon to discover a thing or two about yourself. Hell, introspection is almost inevitable, given the circumstances.

Michael Lewis had a pretty great idea, he created a search engine for personal websites. I really like that idea because I like exploring personal websites and especially reading personal blogs. It’s always interesting to read about people’s thoughts, hobbies, lives, experiences and point of views.There are already a couple of resources to discover personal sites (like this, this or this), but having more is even better! Michael Lewis also wrote some background posts about creating this proje... -

I'm not entirely sure that I am. I've fried thick slices so they develop a crust. The result is tasty enough, but not great.

Sep 21, 2020, 3:16 PM -04:00I finished A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers recently. I loved it.
