Explaining the Pandemic to my Past Self

What would happen if I tried to explain what's happening now to the January 2020 version of myself?

I genuinely forgot about the Australian wildfires... I'm Australian.... I live in Australia... I was literally here.

"put a little money in zoom"
"is that a conferencing app?"
"yes _trust me_ "
The advice we all wish we knew tbh

Good ol’ January, back when our only concerns were stopping massive wildfires and preventing WW3.

I miss those days.

Watching this in 2021, makes me feel like 2020 was nothing but a dream

[yoodlebug]

Does anyone remember when we were dangerously close to war with Iran? Everyone thought WWIII was here. That was also January

[selinastruss]

Even future Julie has no idea what tf is about to happen

[nightlight]

Lets be honest, when she talked about the australia forest fires everyone one went "oh yeah" alongside her

[gwenkoh]

It’s 2021 and I’ve completely forgotten about the Australian wildfires

[sofiahuerta]

I like how I didn’t even know what zoom was a few months ago.

The fact that this video is already technically outdated scares me.

Edit: Guess my comment's outdated now.

It physically hurt me when she didn't listen to the words, "Invest in zoom."

[tazan]

2 years later, still freaks me out how quickly things can change overnight.

Brilliant. The innocence of January Julie is both endearing and terrifying.

2020 sounds like a plot written by a 5 year old..

“And then, there was no more school forever!”
“Everyone went to buy toilet paper!”
“We stayed at home and played video games all day.”

[adamjackal]

I genuinely felt like I was watching real people having a conversation, that’s how good at acting you are

[leggyblond]

This is becoming more like reminding my future self of the different stages of the pandemic. Just watched part 6 (Jan 2022) and rewatching this really hit differently this time.

I know this was essentially supposed to be humorous, but I think it's really really smart. Everything gets weird rapidly, but it even *sounds* weirder when you have to explain what this life is like out loud.

[carolinecolbert]

"Yeah, your definition of a pretty big deal is gonna change."

Yikes. That was a moment of perspective I wasn't ready for.

When she laughed at herself for wanting to “travel” I actually started crying...
