With ongoing uncertainty about the origins of the pandemic, do you agree with prevailing intelligence views favoring a natural emergence of the virus (via animal-to-human transmission)? If not, what is your theory?

Yes, I favor the natural emergence theory for the COVID virus. These conspiracy theories that it is a weaponized version created in a lab and either released on purpose or through negligence is just ridiculous. I swear the next thing we're going to hear is that the coronavirus is a registered Democrat. Although, given the extent the Republicans went to avoid interfering with COVID's "mission," I'd be more inclined to believe it is member of the Trump family.

I find the lab leak theories suspect just because they tend to be pushed by people who are trying to prove the pandemic was a conspiratorial event (a "plandemic" as they term it). And I think that's ridiculous. I wouldn't rule out that it could have leaked by accident, but I don't believe it was some grand conspiracy.

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?

Hi fishes,

Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.

Did you do the NIPT? I just had my first prenatal appt and they scheduled me for the NIPT at 10 weeks. I’m a little nervous and anxious. Did anyone get it and got a false positive? Do you not recommend it? I wish I could ask family but we’re not telling anyone until the 12 weeks mark.

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.

I’m sober curious. I’m also about to help a new non-alcoholic spirit company with their launch.
I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.

In confidence she told me she can often smell alcohol. How can I help? I feel helpless. I’ve already lost someone to addiction and I can’t ignore this. Any advice?
