Always amazed me how many people thought sars-cov-2 was an engineered bioweapon... People have no idea. 2020 was an underhand softball toss, and Earth fumbled and fell flat on its face. I've come to the conclusion that we're unbelievably fucked if an actual existential threat shows up; which it will, inevitably.
