    2. Anomalisa (John and Kaufman, 2015)
    3. The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) (Baumbach 2017)
    4. Harmonium (Fukuda 2016)*

    *but it's not very good

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?
