# Allowing Things to Break
# Allowing things to break
I have long toyed with the idea of creating a personal web page that I can use to publish anything that doesn't fit anywhere else. There is a reason for Twitter and others to be somewhat rigid in form and content, but it makes the universal machines on our desktops and in our pockets appear much less universal, and also less approachable to experimental exploration than they allow for. Here should rather be a space for exploration.
It is hard to predict what exactly this page / blog / space ends up being when I'm just writing the first couple of words of hopefully many more, but I have an idea of it that may show in a small thing I've been working on in the last few days.
## The Situation We're In
## The situation we're in
Where I live we're nearing the third year of significant restrictions of daily life for the purpose of countering the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. New virus strains have shown to be less harmful and calls for reopening get louder by the day.
At the same time we're dealing with a three digit number number of daily deaths, something that was shocking just one year ago and now is barely mentioned. There was at some point an international compassion, solidarity and a sense that what is going on _affects all of us_, but this also seems gone now. Every country seeks to reign within the small confines of its borders and the prospect of returning to a life as it was before seems to be the best thing we can hope for. Muster up the courage and carry on.
## Trying to Grasp
## Trying to grasp
I think it is worth trying to take a step back and make yourself aware of the sheer scale of this crisis hyper-object that is all around us. Countless dashboards promise scientific accuracy and rigor, but there is loss and mourning that is not captured by meticulous data-gathering.
