I dare say my retirement would appreciate the buying opportunity a bear market would afford, provided I get to stay employed.

It gives subtle tones of blaming the sick and deceased for their predicament. People get sick all the time from no fault of their own and death comes for us all. But of course diet and exercise are good for your health.

I’ve started embracing my grammar flaws and typos. Emails and chats may get a proof, but only from me or another human, then I send it. I’ve deleted Grammarly because I think the flaws make the comms more authentic in the age of AI.

It’s science fiction coming true, and it’s only going to continue to improve.
