“There was something that felt like coming home, hanging out with him again. The feeling of something stable — it’s very appealing right now,” she said the morning after the dinner, which went well, and ended with them making plans for another. There’s also, as Brock Coylar observed in the Cut on Friday morning, the sense of nihilism that the spread of COVID-19 has caused in the Gen-Z crowd who, as Coylar notes, largely don’t remember 9/11 or the financial crisis. The spread of the virus — coupled with the low chance of fatal contraction — has resulted in “a prideful sense of invincibility” that has spurred a kind of mid-pandemic hedonism.
Sameh, an investment analyst in his early 20s, told me an old girlfriend had called him out of the blue this week. “She was saying all of this mushy, mushy stuff about how she cares about me; how she feels very lost but wants to focus on herself right now, because of everything that’s going on.” He added that he’s also had more free hours than usual, leading to more time spent reaching out to “old flings” himself.

New Study Finds Link Between Cancer, Reading Text On Computer ScreenATLANTA—A new study released Monday by the Centers for Disease Control has found a direct link between a particularly aggressive strain of ocular cancer and reading text on a computer screen. “We’ve found that reading a headline followed by three or four sentences on a computer screen will result in a malignant brain tumor 97 percent of the time,” said researcher Jason Lofton, adding that even scanning a phrase modifying the name of a source can rapidly accelerate the cancer’s metastasis. “We’ve discovered that news stories with more than three commas are particularly bad, and readers should avoid compound sentences at all costs.” The study also concluded that the disease is treatable if caught early, unless one encounters the sort of icon that indicates the end of a news article, in which case there is no cure.
