Please try to understand the difficulties people face when they run in social circles and/or have extended families that have all moved on from the pandemic... except for them.

There is a weird liminal space we live in -- a dissonance-- where we know the science & we can see what's happening in the news...

and yet, we look around us & see that we are the only ones still being vigilant. It makes us ask ourselves if we are somehow being unreasonable? /2
This may not be the case with you, personally, but it certainly the case with me. Maybe it's because I'm deeply extroverted & I have a rather large social network.

I would encourage us to talk openly about these difficulties. And to challenge and charge those of us around us who have a similar mindset to uplift and encourage, rather than to chastise and criticise. These are hard times. /4

Although I love my work, my boss, and some of the privileges that my job gives me, the pursuit of higher ed came at some immense costs in my personal life. /2
I feel like, in some key ways, I lost my 20s to my nose in books and didn't devote enough attention to my relationships. I also didn't have near enough fun. /3
