You can't step in the same river twice, and we won't go back to "pre-pandemic life."

Hybrid work for will stick around for many professionals. Wages will permanently increase for retail works. Drug companies will create more mRNA vaccines. I doubt I'll ever make the student loan payments I made before the pandemic. Movies will continue to come out on streaming services quickly after they come out in theaters. Government won't shrink back down in size. I doubt we'll see any reduction in screen time with kids. And the society will always be waiting for the next big pandemic.
