Good first person account of couple’s experience being infected with Covid 19 while on the Diamond Princess cruise ship. Worth a listen. If already posted feel free to remove.

COVID-19 and the myth of productivity, ppl afraid of being bored when confined at home
We were trained to push away "hobbies" as acts that don't make us useful to society. We were convinced that work and employment were the only fields where we could find worth, purpose, growth and delight.
I don't blame you. It took me several months / years to be at peace with doing nothing, enjoying a good knitting session or even to be able to read again without feeling the urge to pick my phone up.
COVID-19 and the myth of productivity, ppl afraid of being bored when confined at home
What a lot of reactions from people scared of being bored if they stay all day at home inspire me, is that our modern "organised world" taught us that we are not allowed to rest or stay idle just for the sake of it.
A lot of people who work an admin / tech / office job experience guilt, or simply find themselves unable to enjoy a book, a nap, playing with their kids or just do nothing.
@NAZl
It is indeed horrific that a user needs to be identified by #Cloucflare in order to progress, and we believe this opens users up to #targetedAdvertising and/or targeted #propaganda/#indoctrination.
There are #openSource methods and #captchas to help hosts determine that a user isn't a bot. There's no excuse in our view to use shadowy Cloucflare.
And of course we cannot forget their commitment towards training #selfDriving #weaponry.
