Yeah. Hacker News. Isn't everybody?
I'm probably not much like you imagine me, but I do understand this is affecting everyone differently. That said, social distance is NOT a quarantine. It is maintaining 6 feet where possible and wearing masks. Simple lifestyle change. The fact that you are conflating it with a total lockdown, which IS very problematic (but sometimes still necessary) is part of the problem.
Let's be grownups. Ideally, we quarantine for two weeks, followed by gradual reopening with actual social distancing. As long as people have hope and a plan, they can deal with a surprising amount of discomfort. If you don't get that, I assume you're a twenty something who's never had the patience to sacrifice your comfort for something much more important.
