Have you ever gotten to the end of a day and thought the aggravation wasn’t worth the minimal mental effort? Ever screen capped conversations and come back to them later, just to make sure you weren’t imagining them?
I’ve got about a half-dozen followup rhetorical questions, and the answer to all of them, of course, is “Yes. So what?”
Which, dear reader, is a profoundly on-point answer today.
Great column here:
I've interviewed Dr. Carroll. To say he knows his stuff doesn't say enough.
"It is completely understandable that many are tiring of restrictions due to Covid-19. Their resolve is weakening right when we need it to harden. This could cost us dearly." https://t.co/JNgj6kc1Zj

I think I started really riding bikes again 10-or-so years ago just as a release. Sometimes I remember that and today was one of those days.
If I had one word for that bike ride I'd say: hard.
If I had two words I'd use: quite necessary.
If I had three words: almost cathartic, actually.
Four words: just what I needed.
Hard, quite necessary, almost cathartic, actually and just what I needed to put today behind me. pic.twitter.com/Q6v9ZWhE6g

I’ve been saving this story to share for just such a day. No! Really! I have a bunch of tabs open and this was one of them and I’ve been hanging on to it because the numbers are oddly inspiring. You’ll like this.
This story is from last year. So what? Maybe you missed it. Perhaps you've forgotten it. Read it now.
There's something immensely satisfying in considering these odds. https://t.co/iYNmKPoL7E

And, now, back to the bike race.
