Since this is a new platform, do we need some intro? Let me begin by saying that I was in Wuhan, China when the pandemic started (I have been there since 2018). During the lockdown, I stayed in my dormitory room (alone) for 75 days. But I did not leave the city until I received my PhD in June 2022.
“You didn’t come here to make a choice. You’ve already made it. You’re here to try to understand why you made it… We can never see past the choices we don’t understand.” (The Oracle)
