I was visiting patient homes with covid three days after it was officially declared a pandemic. Those early days were bad and I don't care what the government says that first disease was something completely different from what came later. The hospitals were being forced to send people home due to overcrowding.
China is 100 percent to blame for all of this and it breaks my heart that I will never see them held to it outside of some ceremonial acknowledgement in 100 years if we're lucky.
I saw people in their 20s who are now on oxygen for life. I did my best to get all of them off oxygen but that first hit of covid at the beginning... that was something worthy of a lock down. Whatever it was that came later precautions should have been in places where the elderly and medically frail are, those people not being ones to go out to begin with.
tl;dr early covid was a real disease that was a threat. What came after that led to creation of later policy was nowhere close. I have no explanation for this. It absolutely was bio weapon shit which is always kinda fucky.

Spoiler for not important to story at all just something kinda cool
I have a blast watching the old film reels of my Soviet grandfather doing his experiments. He specialized in disease warfare via transmission from dogs...
 
Call me retarded, but 2012 was the beginning of the end. Everything after that has been one horrible event after another. Bad, even terrible, events occurred prior to then, but it just feels like times keep getting worse.

Personally, Donald Trump's second term has been a source of relief thus far. I'm not letting my guard down, but maybe we can catch our breath before things get worse when he leaves office.
 
What importance would be the current Ukrainian problem to euros, if covid did not happen? It could be similar as in 2014 when Russians took over Crimea - it was a thing back then, but the euro politicians weren't quite on that power trip yet.
Probably like it is now where the war is treated as some faraway thing and the EU smugposts about its nominally good economy.

2010s fucking sucked. The entire world gradually became shittier until the lockdowns just accelerated it more. Corporate bullshit has taken over fucking everything as well and has ruined everything fun.

You're not wrong. 2012 was when it started to fall apart.

I'm still of the belief we peaked in a lot of ways in 2007, though that plateaued until about 2011 or 2012 where there was then a steady-ish decline. It was a real weird transitional period.
