Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

It's likely going to turn out that Covid has fucked our brains in ways we don't understand yet. The before and after difference is too extreme to be caused by a collective trauma from 4 years ago. If that was really the problem, we would be over it by now and back to normal.
But that's not what this is. Time is going to work every day, going to church or hiking or playing frisbee on the weekends, playing DND every two weeks, having a big test every few months...that goes away, you don't have time anymore.
Are there any remote populations on the planet untouched by Covid? If so, a scientific study could possibly be carried out.
Well, there's Sentinel Island, but we keep people away from there for many, many good reasons
