    "We're ... in the middle of a pandemic that has cost us more than 85,000 jobs as of today. Lives of millions of people. Millions of people. Millions of jobs. You know, and we're in a position where, you know we just got new unemployment insurance, this morning, uh, numbers — 36.5 million claims since this crisis began."

    It is funny. In 2000 we survived the Y2K bug. We then survived 9/11. Then we survived the 2001 market crash, the 2002 swine flu, the 2012 Mayan calendar end-times thing. Hell, we even survived AIDS. We did all that before the fucking smartphones.

    Now everyone is saying this is the end of days. Maybe we should stop using smartphones, because they seem to be make people stupider.
