I’m in a bar-restaurant in Salt Lake City and the TV is talking about a search and rescue of some hikers. What geniuses went hiking in 40 C heat?

I wanted to like Breath of the Wild, but I just couldn’t. So I’ll miss out on gaming culture for Tears of the Kingdom too.

The opposite of “return to office” advocates isn’t “work from home” advocates.
