I was convinced by the end of 2020 that the COVID pandemic would put popular opinion strong enough in favor that we might finally make some significant movement in the right direction. But instead I learned that at least 30% of the population would protest for their right to be eaten by zombies in the apocalypse and we should retire the phrase “avoid it like the plague.”
I can’t begin to express how many times I got side-tracked telling myself how attentive I was going to be, and losing like 15 minutes of the lecture to that jnternal pep talk.
