Wherein I contemplate wearing a mask full time again, but not fully caring about, or feeling empathy for, the unvaccinated, and not wanting to trim my ever-expanding beard, yet still being concerned about children who aren’t able to be vaccinated.
This is a fantastic question and makes me think of Chuck Klosterman. It also makes me think of a book by Orson Scott Card called The Worthing Saga, wherein a drug that’s used for space travel that puts you in stasis becomes the status symbol of the super elite, skipping across years. I feel like the popular response is “any time I’m at my day job”, but then I think of how little you might actually be “living” if you did this, and it seems scary. Then it also makes me think of impending mortality and it freaks me out. So no, it sounds great at first, but it also sounds like a life-destroying drug.

You’ll get a scholarship, parlay that into a military career, Purple Heart, table tennis fame, into endorsements, friend will purchase cheap apple stock, get AIDs (maybe?) have a kid, be a widower. So there’s that.
