I don't know if it's my perception but people are acting strangely. They seem to be desperately hanging on to the pre-2020 reality in the hope they don't have to face their current circumstances. This manifests in lots of odd behavior like discussing particularly trivial things. I find myself having to talk to them like an adult talks to a child about the tooth fairy. It's a very shallow interaction with lots of unspeakables hanging in the air.
