We are in this resort up in the mountains, and just managed to get the last plane back before the borders shut. I always wanted to read 'The magic Mountain, and guess I never will. Or it feels like Walter Benjamin trying to get over the border to Spain and failing, takes morphine and dies.
So interesting to see the countries of the world cooperating in a matter of weeks. Someone told them something very persuasive. Normally no one ever agrees on anything. These people who told them, some kind of modellers?
I've come to appreciate the natural environment in Australia. I live in the country. My habitual depression only lifts when I leave. Maybe I can do lots of gardening? Normally I just read. I've been doing social isolation for decades there.
