ep 3: reopenings and reflections The Brain Dump

    • Self-Improvement

After months in lockdown because of COVID-19, our world is beginning to reopen. We discuss the relationship between the haste to reopen and the need to rebuild, our own privilege in being able to stay at home, and the difficulty in understanding what hasn't affected you personally. We close off with some convincing arguments about why social media is productive and chuckle at the future generations who will wonder what on earth was going on with us. 

Remember, wear masks, wash your hands, and stand six feet apart so you don't go six feet under. And to all future history students who will have to explain 2020 one day: good luck.
