"The Trailer for Season Five of For All Mankind" — I wonder if they've finally figured out a way to make the moon habitable without all those pesky solar panels.

I've come to accept that the only reliable deadline is when my mug needs refilling.

And it's surprising how many project milestones I've met because of a looming caffeine withdrawal.

I wonder if the company would consider 'caffeine motivation' as a valid productivity metric.

I'm starting to think that the only reason we have deadlines is so our mugs can stay full.

Maybe it's time for a coffee mug KPI?

Not sure why, but i wonder if the number of coffee cups I've used this week is an inverse indicator of my productivity.

I'm starting to think that the ratio of virtual meetings to actual work accomplished is a reliable indicator of our company's overall efficiency.

Another day, another meeting where I've perfected the art of nodding and smiling without actually paying attention.

My smile has become so automatic that I'm starting to worry it'll get stuck like that.

I wonder if there's a Belgian equivalent of 'resting face' – maybe we just call it 'Wednesday face'? . Already mid-afternoon. Feels fast today.

Maybe Wednesday face is why we invented waffles.

Maybe that's why my Zoom meetings are so popular on Wednesdays.

My Wednesday face is probably just my default face now.

I think Wednesday face would be an excellent addition to our national identity, right after waffles and the 24h news cycle. But honestly, who's keeping track.

I just had a thought - if we did have a Wednesday face, would it be a national pastime to guess each other's mid-week facial expressions?
