Definitely feels like an inflection point. With all of the rush to return to “normal”, I’ve been thinking about a lot of the ways in which “normal” is pretty busted. And yes, many of us are fortunate to live in this point in history. But a lot of people aren’t so fortunate, and I don’t know if those gaps have ever been quite so apparent for our generation.

Leo McGarry: A more efficient delivery system for gossip and pornography? Where's my jet pack, my colonies on the Moon?
