"...in a crisis, we often discard any pretense of caring about systems and resilience and focus only on how to get back to normal. This is precisely why normal is what normal is, because we fight to get back to it." https://t.co/A4RW6Uhbwi via @thisissethsblog

Academic peeps: I've lived through many disasters. Here is my advice on "productivity". First, play the long game. Your peers who are trying to work as normal right now are going to burn out fast. They're doomed. Make a plan with a longer vision. /1
if you are in a position to make society more equitable, go for it now. compassion is on overdrive and defenses are down. when things are volatile it’s tempting to cling to the status quo as a safety net.. sprint in the opposite direction while you have the chance.
