      1. Covid-era family movie watching mashup: "Back to the Future Part II" two days ago, followed by "It's a Wonderful Life" tonight. Unintentionally interesting pairing, re alternative history timelines going bad.

      Side note: it's weird in "It's a Wonderful Life" that the pharmacist's kid dies in the 1918-19 Spanish Flu pandemic, as he learns in a telegram, but no one in Bedford Falls seems to be wearing a mask or otherwise affected.

    Side side note: Wife @luizachsavage was just reading Stephen King's "The Stand" and its lack of anyone wearing a mask during a pandemic, even hospital professionals, kept foiling her suspended disbelief.
