"Compelling evidence" and "It did come from the wet market, period." are a far cry from one another. Not disagreeing with this evidence that points to the origin of the outbreak.

It will be interesting to see the historical forensics develop as we actively combat COVID and future SARS-type viruses on a global scale.


It VERY unlikely that there were two separate events of transmission of two different variants of SARS-CoV2 virus. It looks like a) virus originated somewhere else and China was just a good place for virus to spread, b) it was two separate deliberate attempts to spread virus in China.


I see a rut as an ebb in this life, but it's important to ride it even though the way you ride it will be different than normal. It's also important to note that tons of folks feel this way because it seems like we're all just hoping for some precedented times...

Small changes in a few different areas, and at the same time, could spark something. New routine (sleep/wake time), a t-break (stepping away for a few weeks always helps me), a new hobby (a bike and some time to ride it), and even something as menial as cooking yourself a few meals can drive some fulfillment. Hopefully it can spark some creativity elsewhere like your game and your job. If anything, it will create a fun sort of experiment that you can move through and pick up small wins.

Absolutely wild to see the surrounding land "grow" this spruce 1000 meters above the typical tree line in the region.
