    I spent like a month obsessing over the Black Death. There was way less readily available and searchable information about how it spread in my part of the world (Levant, Middle East), even though it pops up around different eras to just pile misery on top of conflicts. So I had to really look into stuff to learn about it, and put some effort in, because almost all the neatly compiled info was about Europe.

    That was at the tail end of 2019. Cool cool cool

      J’accuse! Jk. There’s a show on Netflix called Explained. Each episode is a mini documentary. There’s an episode from 2019 about “the next pandemic”.

      They really nailed it.
