Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landing than the construction of the great pyramids in Egypt.

A lot of people probably were better off. Not working or working remotely. Possibly getting 600/week in unemployment, it may even have been an effective raise. We now know the panic around covid was largely just that.

Politics is a weird incestuous profession where references and endorsement matters more. All the high level staffers need that good reference to get their next job.

Except the swing states, which almost all had record turnout.

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
