“Hope is always about the future. And it isn’t always good news. Sometimes, hope can imprison us with belief or expectation that something will happen in the future to change our lives. Similarly hopelessness isn’t always about despair. Hopelessness can bring us right into this very moment and answer all of life’s most difficult questions. Who am I? Where am I? What does this mean? And what now?” - Daniel Gottlieb

6-Foot Rule Does Little To Prevent COVID-19 Exposure
Hank Campbell, Science 2.0 blogs - 10 hours ago
There were a lot of rules introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic that originated during late 2019 in Wuhan, China. Some were pretty Draconian. China welded the homes of people shut and destroyed 16,000 coronavirus samples at the world's largest coronavirus lab nearby. Some were pointless, like everyone carrying Clorox wipes around. Most were less intrusive and at least somewhat helpful; wear a mask, stay six feet apart. read more

As a child, you probably thought a week took forever and parents certainly thought days crept by after having an infant.

A new study also finds what psychologists warned about; the effects on those with depression issues could be even worse. Unlike a new job or moving to a new place, where time also 'seems' to slow down, the new paper found that distortions to the passage of time were also present later into the global pandemic. read more
