You don’t have to worry about the coming bird flu pandemic locking down anything this time.
And the government will tell you that the people who disappear in your social circle never existed, it’s you that remember wrongly.
And don’t worry about the new uniforms for all government workers includes a gasmask.
It may sound very dystopian, but that’s what you get with a totalitarian regime.
While I was imagining how the muskrat, headworm and lil-t regime will handle the next pandemic it reminded me of what we see in Half-Life 2, Ultraviolet (2006), Brazil (1985).
I have kept up with friends I made and live across the country from me. If you lost touch with friends that live near you, you either didn’t try hard enough to keep touch or they chose to let friendship with you wither away. You have access to technologies that allow you to get text, audio and video in real time with someone on the other side of the world. Losing touch with a friend means one or both of you didn’t care enough to do the work to keep it up.
If physical proximity is the only thing keeping your friends around, you didn’t have friends, you had acquaintances who you misjudged their participation in the relationship. I’ve had plenty of “friendships” go this way as well, but the people I care about I make a point to stay engaged with, even if it’s not as often as I should.

What social circle? I don’t have one anymore thanks to losing contact with them over the last few years.
That might have to do with your batshit Insanity. Just saying.
So it’s a skill/personality issue then.
