I’m not arguing that we should go back into the office. I’m arguing it’s ok to lament the loss of socialization while working, how you spend most of your time.

I’m not arguing that we should go back into the office. I’m arguing it’s ok to lament the loss of socialization while working, how you spend most of your time. There’s a pandemic, and I am lonely. I think the comment I was replying to blaming that on me not having good enough friends and family is both pointed and hurtful. I have a wonderful support system, and I am still lonely, particularly during the work day. > Humans were never "intended" to catch deadly respiratory viruses Strictly semantically speaking, I think billions of years of history disagree. I understand the point you’re trying to make, but respiratory diseases were here long before us, they’re a fact of the environment we were born into. There is no intent in that one way or the other.
