turns out that my lightroom cc (i have a valid subscription, but prevent it from phoning home) won't run anymore unless it can talk to the mothership, and i wanted to test out a crack for it in a vm, but my parallels desktop wasn't actually a purchase, but a 1 year subscription payment and now it's expired. fuck this bullshit, seriously.
rich white people talking about 2020's racial strife as if 2020 was something special and that america's racist bullshit hasn't been an ongoing multi-century slog for millions for generations and counting is... rage-inducing.

it sucks that people are so dumb that they only think about what the news tells them to think about.
having read some of the reports about the total clusterfuck of vaccine allocation and rollout, i'm coming to the realization that it's going to be summer or fall, not spring, before the vaccine is widely available to anyone who wants it.
this means that it will be fall or winter before travel and such is safe and reasonable again, and that's assuming no hospital-overflow-crisis or higher-transmissibility-variant issues throwing a wrench in things.
so, another whole year of isolation. fuck.
