20210612 : post pandemic world

This covid thingy has indeed turned the world upside down. I think we don't yet know fully or understand all of the cascading ripple effects. Obvious direct impacted are travel, tourism depending things, aviation, hospitality, etc.  They are exploring making a vaccine passport to control borders and vaccine passes for public events real. The only thing stopping goverments is their own inability to provide vaccine for all. But it will be a reality soon.  What will folks like AirBnB do? I'm thinking that you can only book some properties if you have a vaccine pass. Once they make it available for children (and they will, its too lucrative to ignore), I'm thinking parents themselves will demand that the vaccine pass be made mandatory to attend classes physically. And there will be more boosters and versions based on the mutants. Its unlikely to be a simple yes/no business. The vaccine non-believers will have not much of a world to live in... Online shopping of anything is her

20210515 : dinosaurs.

Here's a twisted theory: I've always doubted the theory that a meteor took out the dinosaurs... There were too many of them, across species, amphibians, land species, flying ones etc. To be wiped clean by one falling rock... After seeing the potential of this pandemic, that doubt has become stronger...  Sure, maybe it was the falling rock. But its maybe its what came with it that did the trick.  That would be a cool killing a lot more with one stone...
