We have been in quarantine for 8+ weeks, I have come to the point where I must accept at least the possibility that this is some sort of afterlife. 1/6
The most significant possibility, in Christian/Sartre/Let The Punishment Fit the Crimes terms, is that it& #39;s some sort of Purgatory, a gentle penitentiary of boredom where we are forced to face our truest selves and bide some time. 2/6
But it& #39;s really nice. The baking, the TV, the things I& #39;m privileged to have like air conditioning and LA weather, which also forces me to contemplate that it might be some kind of gentle heaven, worked out for my sensibilities alone. 3/6
Here, Guy, is an eternity with all the books and movies you could ever want to watch (Except somehow I can& #39;t stream "Judgment at Nuremberg") and infinite 2 dimensional access to everyone you love in the world equally, regardless of geography. 4/6
But it seems most likely they& #39;re doing some sort of massive upgrade to The Matrix and can& #39;t go around rendering the whole planet while that architecture is getting altered so are forcing us to just stay in our little rooms while the programmers finish it up. 5/6
I sincerely hope the graphics upgrades to the water and trees in this expansion are worth us having to spend 3-5 months of membership trapped in our apartments. 6/6
