I think I accomplished more in the past 2.5 hours than 9-5

woke up earlier than I wanted. couldn't get back to sleep. gave up, checked my tablet. back-to-back social media posts:
- reminder, SARS-CoV-2 is still ongoing, also oncogenic
- Trump admin is claiming unchecked authority over the military
- shitty "a.i." surveillance will make stuff up about you

Ahab [cont]: "Hold on, hard to read… Mr. Harry… Macey! Oh! And he's dead!"
Mayweh: "Yup. That sucks. Letter from his wife, too. I guess you might as well give it here."
Archangel Gabriel: "No Ahab, you keep it. You're going that way soon."
Ahab: "Oh fuck you!"

Ahab: "Cool. Btw I think we have a letter for one of your men. Lessee, Mr…"
