Where did 2021 go?
« on: Wed, 29 December 2021, 01:11:28 »

Am I the only person on the verge of consulting an expert in stroboscopic photography to find out where the year 2021 went?

What made it go by so mind-bendingly fast?

Perhaps everyday blends together when the variety is reduced.

Do nothing, sleep little and near constant frustration at work made for very long days and weeks but I agree the year as a whole seemed to fly by.  Probably something in the covid vax :p

I could say the same about most of last year. Time stopped in March 2020. Perhaps time could return in March 2022, hopefully.

That's just a distraction from the "true Grift" that is Military Industrial.

This was a long year for me -- too many things have happened. Mostly good things.
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Same but opposite. Long ass year, many things happened, but mostly bad things.

Every year seems shorter and shorter just as a product of getting older, but 2021 really was way, way faster than any other, and it was a complete and utter waste. Anything that means anything in my life happened 2+ years ago.

I was going to list some good things and bad things that happened this year, but I'll make a separate post to avoid being too off topic. Even our off topic posts tend to veer off the original topic here on GH.
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

The world has become a weird place.
