Luckily I have very good friends in Amsterdam and I was staying with them just before things got crazy everywhere, so I’m remaining sheltered-in-place with them. Getting back to Uganda has gotten even more difficult - the airport and borders are entirely closed, so I’m resigning myself to a long stay here. And as a…

I’m getting so used to main characters being killed off early in a series (Watchmen, On Being a God in Central Florida) that there’s a part of me hoping they take that step with Hugh Laurie. I’d miss him in the show, but overall the show is such a big nothing even with him that I don’t think it’d be much different…
