It's the end of the world as we know it

Yes, the world as we know it is ending.

We are all about to embark on a weird, dangerous voyage through a viral nightmare.

And if or when we come out on the other side, the world will be forever changed.

Our behaviors will change.

Our fears and hopes will change.

Our former feelings of security will change.

The future will smell of low-grade anxiety and lemon-scented hand sanitizer.

It's the end of the world as we know it...

...and I don't feel fine about it.

But here we are.

Welcome to the new reality.
